Ah I'm delighted. I would be glad to help anytime as I know only too well how you feel, it's tough esp with 2 kids to consider. In responce to your questions....
*Is the Boghall road in the same category...? Wheatfield estate?- I think that house is overpriced tbh, you could do alot better. DNG in Bray have one in Mountain View Drive for €415k & that's a nice estate, give them a ring, better than Wheatfield I think anyway!!.The Boghall Road is okay imho, avoid Deerpark/Oldcourt areas. You will probably have to send your son to St. Fergals or Bray school project. I don't know too much about those schools but there is no uniform in Bray school project, it has a website so check it out
www.brayschoolproject.ie . St. Fergals has a bit of a rough element in it from what I have
HEARD, most would prefer their kids in St. Patricks or BSP or Scoil Chulain. The Boghall Road is not in the catchment area for St. Patricks, it's the Holy Redeemer Parish and luckily we are in it. Our son loves it there and is really happy, it's a lovely school and would highly recommend it but it's hard to get into, you have to enrol your child the previous Oct before they are due to start with proof of address etc but they do have kids from outside the catchment area in there too coz it's really big so chances are the kids do get in,it's an Irish thing this catchement area carry-on. Just so you know it's just Junoirs & Senoir infants for the boys and then they move to St.Cronans just up the road from it in first class which again is a lovely school.
My daughter goes to The Park Adademy Creche and Montessori on the Southern Cross Road and I cannot speak highly enough of it. Beautiful creche, lovely staff and just ticks all the right boxes and she has a ball and they cater right up to afterschool care and do part and full time.
As I said feel free to pm me or even if you are in Bray any weekend you could give us a shout and we will happily give you some useful tips. I also have some great boozer and resturant, take aways and chipper recommendations..
. For your wife if she is anything like me she will be thrilled to know that Dundrum SC is 12 mins in the car....my husband now HATES the mention of Pennys or Daisy & Toms...LOL!!
