Hi guys,
I never knew this Costa Galera thread was here, what a great find.
I, along with my Husband and 2 daughters aged nearly 9 and nearly 5 are coming over again for 9 days at the end of April. This will be our third visit to Costa Galera - we love it. We have been coming over to Estepona for a few years now and love the area.
We have been trying to move over now for 2 years but what with jobs and selling the house this hasnt happened YET. Things are starting to move forward now so we are hopeful we will be there soon.
We have met a few people on Costa Galera now and the girls have played with a few of the children on there. When we move over we are looking at renting on there as compared to a lot of the other urbs we have just fallen in love with it.
Any help on what schools would be best in Estepona would be great. We have been into the tourist office and have chatted to them about schools but some first hand advice would be great. We are looking at Spanish State Schools.
Also I am 18 weeks pregnant so if John manages to get a job before September then I will be giving birth in Spain - any advice there would be great too.
I have been attending a Spanish course now for 18 months 2 hours a week and am determined to continue this when I arrive in Spain. I try and teach the girls the basics and we have recently bought Muzzy for them which they love. As soon as we know we have a date to move over we are going to get a private tutor for the girls just to give them some confidence and to help them out a little bit.
Is it a nice safe friendly place to bring up children? We always feel safe and get a good feel for the place when we are there and everybody seems so friendly.
Thanks for your time.
Sarah
