I got my ‘Yellow Envelope’ yesterday…

Have some questions regarding Schooling for my 8 year old, who is really excited about the new life in Australia (and he is a great fan of Bret Lee & Ricky Ponting – and he still would remain a great fan of Sachin Tendulkar, I suppose)

1.Admission/ Enrollment

My son is 8 years old and would turn 9 in April 2005. He is studying in class III here in India. Will he get admission to class III in Australia as well?
What are the enrollment criteria – Will my son be required to take some test or he will be assigned a class based on age?

2.Immunization certificate

I understand that the school would be requiring an Immunization certificate at the time of enrollment.
Though my son (aged 8 years) has been immunized, but I don’t have the exact details of immunization or any certificate as such.

What should be done w.r.t Immunization certificate?

3.Session

I understand that the new session starts in January. If the child arrives in Australia, let’s say in June – is the child still given admission?

Thanks for all the help in advance.
