Question
I am Belgian but have been living in Australia for over 20 years. I am planning on coming back with my family for at least a year next year (2018). I would love your advice re: schools. My children 8.5 and 5.5 are currently attending a Steiner School in Sydney. They don't speak French at all. We would be living in Wallonia, Bierges to be exact. What would you do re:schools?
1) send them to an international school - they are super $$$$ it seems
2) homeschool for the year
3) send them to the local school and hope they pick French up quickly.
I am a French speaker so could help my kids.

Hi,
We are abelgian familly living in Limal and have two unschooled kids (7 and 9).
My husband and I speak fluently english and I would like my kids to start learning it.
Si if you choose to unschool your children, we could do some "exchanges" : my kids could come one a week or once a month at your place and speak english and yours could come at my place to learn some french.
