Hello,
Me and my husband are looking to move to your friendly town from busy Manchester. We are wanting to start a family and are looking for a home that will suit us when we hopefully have little uns. I am Catholic so we’re naturally thinking about being close to St. Mary’s primary school. A few posts from years ago sounds like the school admissions thing is a bit crazy, has it improved or is it still pretty hard? Is there anyone with children at St. Mary’s with advice? I realise you can live within the parishes and generally be ok with having your children accepted, but just wondered if that was the case. Would we need to live pretty close to the school? We aim to be within walking distance as much as possible but of course need to find the right house in the right budget etc!
I’m really looking forward to getting back to the hills!
Thanks very much!
