    All the schools re-open this year on 28th or 29th August.

    I'm surprised there isn't anyone at all in your local primary school at the moment - just because the kids aren't there doesn't mean there isn't lots to do.

    You could go in at the end of August. There may be teachers in the school that day for a meeting, or try the week beforehand. Unless your local school is over-subscribed there should be no problem adding your child in.

    Thank :)

    I'll try calling again and keep having a look about the school. Do u have any idea about school fee for this area?

    Standard primary schools do not charge fees. I'm not a parent so I don't know what the registration fee is, but I don't think it would be much - under 100 euro?
    They cannot use that as grounds not to enrol your child.

    Do you have any neighbours you could ask? Might be a conversation starter if you are new to the area.

    Most schools will want a "voluntary" contribution towards materials.
