I have looked around at ERO reports and been to see a couple of schools, it really will be what fits best.

Have heard good things about Ilam and Avonhead, good music at Westburn and have heard good things about Elmwood (but be prepared to get turned down for a visit until you have either recieved a place with the out of zone ballot or are in zone, ridiculous for people who may be looking at moving!). Waimairi is also good and the zone is a nice area too. The principal is very onto it and the way the school is structured and the classrooms run look like a gifted child could definately do well in the environment. I have heard Paparoa street have large class sizes and do know of people chosing not to go there. Fendalton has a good rep but was not all that impressive when I went to visit.

It really depends on what area you want to move into. It is hard work finding a good school or one that fits your child but the best way to know will be by meeting the teachers and having a look around, asking questions and making sure that they have answers for them.

Good luck with your hunt.
