Thank you very much for your email and all the helpful links. My son does not speak Spanish, but I don't know how much of a problem that is at 4 years old.... he would learn it very quickly is my guess. I will look into the links you sent, and will probably contact your wife with more specific details as my research improves.

Thank you again,

Nihal

We are currently living in Sant Cugat del Valles about 30 kim norht of Barcelona. My daughter goes to an intenational school (Europa) that teaches in Spanish, Catalan and English. The public schools teach mostly in Catalan and would have be diffiuclt for her as she only knows English and Spanish. The town is great for families. My wife is part of the committee ar the school that assists foreign families with settling in so you can contact her with any questions. You may get some more information about the area from the following web sites below.
