Thanks Geordie for your advice on Regent

We're still to make the final decision. We've also had advice from GEMS Royal Dubai that they have places for the kids. So hopefully the decision will be made and kids have places within the next week or so. That will be a big weight off my mind and will make it easier for my husband to choose somewhere to live when he arrives mid-July.

Now all I have to do is find a good ballet school and we'll be set. One of the teenage girls at my daughters' ballet school here in Perth, Western Australia was born and bred in Dubai and she went to Turning Pointe. I'm going to see if I can catch up with her mum this week to pick her brain.
