A Forum for Kids,re Kids view
I think we should have a page for all the children for their questions about new schools,making friends, leaving family behind,e.t.c.
It was great to read about the childrens hopes and fears .
I have an 11 year old boy who don't want to go and will not even talk about moving to OZ and seems to think that he will be staying here with his granny !, and a 9 year old boy that want's to go.
So if I can get him on the computer and talk to other children that are also going to Australia he may then realise that he is not the only child ever to leave his family, friends, school e.t.c.
So let's have a page just for them!!!
Anyone agree?

I have a 12 yr old Son who would love to share his thoughts, he is really keen to go as he is obsessed with reptiles! Maybe he could persuade your two along a bit?!
