I think there three ways to change your search path.

-- Will temporarily set the search path for this connection only
SET search_path TO schema1, pubic;

-- Will set the search path for the specified user for all subsequent connection (not the current connection)
ALTER USER username SET search_path to schema1, public;

-- change the postgresql.conf file to set the search path for all users for all subsequent connections
search_path = '"$user", schema1, public'

Cheers,
Kevin

    Postgis functions should stay in the public schema. No need to
    copy them.

    You will be able to use them on the bali.* tables by either fully
    qualifying the tables' name in your queries or by adding your newly
    created schema to the search path (no need to qualify tables names
    with the schema in this case)
