Hi Nikki Please go ahead and initiate fresh thread in IL Meet ups in Dubai.Hope u get good response . Btw , where are you from ? Working / stay at home , kids /no kids . pls share something about you More on hearing from you ! Cheers
Hi Shivani, I am a mom of two…boys 11years and 7 years old…coming from canada but basically belong to delhi,India.I am working from home for a while…struggling to settle down here….major issue being the schools admission…we have arrived in the middle session and all the schools say no vacancy…..:-(( A bit lost until i know where to put kids in…they have been sitting home for quite some time now.sigh:-(
Hi Nikki Since how long you been part of Dubai ? I can understand your situation n for sure its not the pleasent one to be in. My suggestion would be not to restrict yourself to area in aprticular , keep all the options open with respect to the area and Curriculum. As kids admission would be mid Year, so at the moment its Beggars can't be choosers Situation. This Im sharing from personal exp, as I've always been a family on the move and majorly dealt with mid Year admission dilemma. Please refer to this link , go through it , pick up the phone and check with all the schools. Commuting in Dubai is a minor hassel,effort should be to save the year. Souqalmal.com Hope it helps. Feel free to touch base should you need any further asssitance Be patient , new place new challanges, ones they're taken care , trust me you would love Dubai for what it has to offer .
Thanks Bharat for coming forward to the assistance of fellow IL Member. Pls see what best can be done to help the lady in distress .
hi nikki dont worry, its just matter of time n u ll have lot of good friends. IL is a good place to start a conversation with fellow ladies and meet them. I happneed to have few good friends made through IL. And as far as ur kid's school is concerned, i agree with shiovani2009. She is right in saying that u need to save the year, so wherever u can get the admission for ur kid, just do it! next session onwards u can prepare well in advance and find a good school. BTW, i am manpreet, from delhi (rohini) and been staying in dubai for past 2 n half years. I am working n am Staying here with my hubby. hope to hear from u soon take care and all the best for schook hunt!
