Thom4444 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Hi we are hoping to move across to Brisbane in July/August. I've been having a reccie at the local schools - my oldest daughter is 13 (dob 1/5/03) and will have finished year 9, youngest is 11 (22/11/05) and will have finished y6 in the uk and moving up to senior school for the next academic year. was looking at senior schools - but then realised that my youngest might still need another year of primary in Oz??? because trying to find one school wasn't stressful enough already ? Anyone know what year she'd be in Oz? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loopylu Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Hi Thom - your younger daughter will be in Year 6 for the last few months of this calendar year and so will need to enroll in a primary school. My daughter was born earlier in 2005 and so she is in Year 7. The cut-off for which year you go into is 1 July. I think your older daughter will be in Year 9 at High School.

Croft Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Remember the school year matches the calendar year here so if she is year 6, as Loopylu says, she will only have a few months. Term 3 ends on 15 September and Term 4 is 3 October to 8 December. She would then enter High School on 22 january 2018. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thom4444 Posted February 14, 2017 Author Share Posted February 14, 2017 Thanks for the info - it will probably be good for them to have a few months to ' catch up' a bit. Need to start looking at junior schools as well now then! X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
