My husband and our 4 children are being relocated to London on June 1, 2002 from Atlanta, GA for a 3 year term. I want to know if anyone has any insight or personal information about a school we are checking into for our children, It's the American School of London. Also I wanted to know if there are any groups with American xpat families we can get involved with that would include the children as well as activities and get togethers with just the adults. My husband and I love the night life and love to have many social circles to run in. I would appreciate any comments or suggestions on these two questions. Thanks so much.

Hi Criley,

I don't have specifics on schools for you, but can point you to a good resource: www.americanexpats.co.uk
If you visit the Forum and search for 'school' you will find previous discussions on the American School, or you can post a new topic. This site is very lively and a combination of daily chatter and helpful information.

I can tell you that we plan lots of expat outings and post notices on that site. About once a month we have happy hour type nights, and it's a great way to meet people and find friends for other outings. Additionally, there are several people with children who are making efforts to organise family activities as well.

Feel free to email me if you have additional questions.

Welcome (in advance) to London. It's a great city!

-Elizabeth
