Re: Are we mad......
Thank you for all your info. Just an update.....job accepted and EOI submitted..... Going to take a leaf from my kids books and advice from my boss being its time to live a little... Its going to be an Emotional journey but better that than spend the rest of my life in limbo wondering what if!
Unfortunately I don't know any midwives who work in Waikato, otherwise I'd have put you in touch with them.
Good luck with everything and if you need any help with anything do shout out.

Hi thank you for the information. Yes I have my registration.... it took me more or less 3 months as I found the written statements so time consuming! I can’t imagine what a nightmare it was for you being the first ones through it. Now we play the waiting game with the visa and in the mean time carry on with the research! Would welcome any information you think is of value/essential I won’t say no to anything people think is helpful and useful! Main thing now is finding a base and research the schools.

Re: Are we mad......
Both of my boys went to Cambridge High and I had no complaints about the standards there.there wasn't really a catchment area, if you lived in or around the town you could go. That may have changed with the recent rapid growth of the town. I had friends who sent theirs to Hillcrest in Hamilton and again they were very impressed. On the outskirts of Cambridge is St Peters which is a private school. It's expensive but is also an excellent school. Cambridge also has primary and middle schools. Friends have used them and been happy but I have no first hand experience.
