Hi,
My family are planning to move to Belfast in the Sping with two DC. We are planning to live in the area around Holywood. We want to live that side of Belfast to be near the airport/coast/work. I know nothing about how the education system works but DD is due to start primary in September 2013 so we will need to apply before we have moved but I don't know how that works although we may have a rental agreement in place. My friends all think we are mad and think things will be bleak...the weather too, but we see the upsides of living out there by the coast with the kids.
I will also need to find a nursery for DS as I will be working.
Can anyone out there tell me something good about living out there - education, shopping :), healthcare and recommend any estate agents. Likely we will be going state route for schools. Hoping to do a rekkie before the year is out. Ideally I would like to live somewhere where there is a community feel so I can make some friends.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts!
