settling in well

My son.is settling in well at his new school. It is a tiny school by comparison to his previous one. He will be getting support like he used to at his last school but this time it is free. Actually I think he ie doing rather well. I teach mathematics there twice a week and I must say that I feel very positive about everything.

We hope to be able to visit Swaziland at Christmas but I am really not sure yet. If the Swazi government pays up the 80 million rand it owes Uniswa, then students will go back. It is a depressing state of affairs.

Moving to Sønderborg

So I moved here last month. My son got kicked out of his last school because of his learning disability. So much for an inclusive education. I think it is a good move. I am in a much better job in terms of work load, facilities, resources and my son is in a much better environment. He is at a small international school in the town. The local authority has found funding for him. The school fees are subsidised by the state.

Denmark

We have moved to Denmark and I am still unsure what my salary is going to be. One thing is for sure - I will be taking home less than when I worked in Slovakia. It is going to be much harder to afford to pay the R 2000 that I have been sending to Nhlanhla every month. I also have my mortgage in Hungary to pay. SO I have set up a Fundrazr account which I hope will attract some interest and some donations.
