Any references or advice?

Thanks,
Amir

Try Porvorim for good schools..........

I know people in Arambol who had their kids in a school in Anjuna. The kids in the school were in quite diffirent ages, but the youngest I know of was about 4. The people who had their kids there just loved it! I think it was about 3 famelies w. kids in Arambol who were taking turns driving the kids down to the school and then picking them up.

The shcool was run by westerners (I think), and it costed about 3000 Rs per month, I´m not sure, but somewhere around there. The school seemed really good, engeged teachers, organic food etc. Sorry but I don´t know the name of the school, but in Anjuna there are lot of people w. kids, so if you ask around you should find it..

Good luck!
