Update on The Randle family

Update on The Randle family

Thinking about what’s best for their young children, Gemma and Chris reassessed their plans to emigrate after returning to the UK.  Although it’s taken some time to come to a decision, as of December 2013 Gemma and Chris have decided to stay close to their family support network in the UK.  Nevertheless, Chris is still in touch with the head teacher he met in Adelaide and they hope to pursue a move once Maddie and Oliver are slightly older.
