Peter - I already wrote to Voltaire and was told to wait for the decision by the admission commission. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Voltaire as it looks like a nice school. Besides I have no other choice and am scared that my daughter may waste the whole year because of lack of place in school, that would make me thinking twice about the move to Qatar. We'll be there in June and she'll be 5 next august. And she's fluent in french, but doesn't speak English at all...What are my options?
