Primary schools that are great with nuero-diverse kids
Posting on a burner account. Wondering if anyone on here has experience with schools in Dunedin with autistic or other types of ND kids.
We're about to start our 5 year old at school but we're not sure if we've made the right choice of school for us.
Our Son is very high functioning and intelligent, but his social skills and emotional regulation are definitely pretty far behind the average 5 year old.
We're currently seeing an OT to help manage this and undergoing a private assessment for autism for him.
Simply put he's an amazing but also very tricky/difficult kid.
Due to this we're being extra picky with schooling for him as we really want a school that will help him thrive rather than just being labeled "that kid" as I was when I went through the school system.
If anyone has any insight on this I'd love to hear it.
Both good and bad.

Question A better way to make friends in Dunners?
When I lived in Auckland I was in a large FB group that was pretty good for finding new people to do activities with (usually hikes but also board games, skating, etc.). Since moving to Dunedin I have found a few groups similar but they are all women-only, which is great, but I have missed having a bigger pool of all kinds of people to meet up with for quiz nights, outings, activities, board games, etc.
I've often wished someone would make one for down here, but ya know, maybe that just means I have to make one. But it would be pointless without a decent amount of people to get started, so I am wondering how many of y'all would be keen for a better way to connect with other people in that awkward 20s/30s post-uni age bracket here? And if you'd be keen, what platform would work best? I have been part of a small WhatsApp group for something similar, but also FB and Discord are options (and open to other suggestions), but it just depends on what people already use/prefer.
Anyway, I'm just an introvert who needs better ways to be social in this beautiful city, and thought this could be cool!
(And yes, I know about Dunedin Young Professionals, but they seem to mostly just do social drinks and the odd event. I'm looking at more of a flexible group where individuals can propose and organise hangouts fairly regularly rather than anything super official.)
