Duncraig has the best rep for a government school for miles around.

You could look at Padbury where rents are normally lower as Padbury High School is closing next year. As far as I am aware kids attending there can transfer to Duncraig after that as one option. Padbury at the moment is outside of their catchment and the way things are going I think in the future it will become harder and harder to get your kids in if you are out of area.

Duncraig never has a lot of rental properties and they nearly all start at $450 a week at the moment. There is plenty of competition for them also. It's becoming a more popular area to live due to proximity of 2 good high schools and the primary schools aren't the worst either.

Didn't Sean on here rent in Greenwood, but got his child into Duncraig SHS? Might be worth dropping him a pm.
