What age should I enroll Keziah?? I was reading the NZ Kindergarten website a while back and I think they say to enroll them at 2 to start at 3... does that sound about right??

Great thanks Linzy  Now I have that sorted I have to find a Play group to take her too... she's getting to that stage where she gets bored and frustrated easily  Needs something or someone to keep her occupied-------------

We're in Point Chev...so more Central than West and as far as I know the only 'play group' offered in our area is the one that's run by Plunket on a once a month basis by some local ladies... I got invited when Keziah was about 4 months old, but I didn't feel very welcome as I'm not a high class snob (which alot of them were...or so it seems) so I never went back
