A family in the Castle Downs area of the city are looking for a school their 3 boys, aged six to 10, can attend this school year. Last year the boys went to school in Namao but at the end of June they were told the family would have to find a new school because the Namao school was full. Krista Butler and Jerome O’Brien were trying to get their boys back into Baturyn School, their designated school, which the boys attended two years ago near their home in Castle Downs but timing seems to have closed that door as well. Baturyn School is near capacity and can only welcome students that pre-enrolled and registered February 1 to March 22, 2024 or were new to the area. Because it wasn't until the end of June that Butler and O’Brien found out that their boys could not attend Namao School they missed Baturyn School's pre-enrollment and registration which leaves the family still looking for a school the boys can attend this year. Their problem is further exacerbated by the fact that

There are approximately 7,000 more students than last year, so not everyone can get into their school of choice.
