moving to Dublin from the United States 05/03/2012 20:32 - Choosing a School / Application Procedures ----------------------------------- Hi everyone. My husband has accepted a job in Dublin, we will be moving there sometime in April. We are extremely excited! We have been told by his employer that ParkWest is a good place to live, so I am writing to ask about schools in the area. I have a 6 year old and an 8 year old. My 6 year old is in 1st grade, and I homeschool my 8 year old who is in 3rd grade. I plan on sending them both to public school in Ireland. Can anyone give me any advice as to what schools they would attend living in the ParkWest area (Dublin 12)? Also, are religious classes required? We are not Catholic, but I´ve noticed that almost all of the schools are. :) Thank you in advance for any help! Jodi McGhee
