UK - Nelson with Teens

Thinking of moving to Nelson from the UK with 13yr old sporty boy and 9yr old girl with mild learning disability. Hira primary looks good option for our daughter - any advice for high school? i’ve heard support is non existent. Also interested to know what teenagers feel about Nelson - is there enough night life for them or mainly outdoor daytime activities. Safety is a must - i’d also heard of a gang house on Parere street - any major concerns especially with a teenage boy? We have lived in NZ before and have citizenship. Never lived in the S Island though. Last place was Papamo but kids were very little so a different time and needs. My partner visited Nelson recently from the UK - looked at schools etc and loved the place. I’m a little worried it will be too small with teens but keeping an open mind. Thanks in advance!
