Hi,
I am currently considering migrating to NZ.
One of my biggest concern is to ensure my son (7 years old) continues his Mandarin classes. He is going to start year 1 Chinese school in Malaysia next year.
I know there are primary schools in NZ that teaches Mandarin.
Which primary school would you recommend?
I am looking for one that has a strong emphasis in Mandarin, even a Mandarin school.
My 2nd concern is the job vacancy situation there. I am a University lecturer with a Ph D and teaching IT. What are the chances of getting a teaching job? Alternatively, I could be a real estate agent since my passion is in real estate investment.
Appreciate your guidance,
Patch

I know that Columba College teaches Mandarin in high school but it's a girls private school. So I wonder if their "brother school" John McGlashton teaches Mandarin? Im not sure though. (These schools are both in Dunedin)

Patch,
Don't worry, there are many Mandarin classes in most major cities especially Auckland. Most mandarin classes are run by community centres.
