Hi there,

Sorry I cant help with the schools side of things, but as for the area, I have heard that Melton is a place to avoid. My sister (who is also moving to Melbourne), had a look around Melton as the houses prices seemed reasonable, but said that it was very run down. There is another thread under Victoria called 'Native Victorian - Happy to Answer any Questions' that you might want to have a look at. The Australian guy who has offered his help, has listed Melton as a place to avoid, but you may want to ask him to elaborate.

I dont know if it helps, but we are looking to move to an area called Berwick. The houses are priced about the same as Melton and there are loads of new houses being built there. It has an English feel about it, has good schools (or so I have heard!) and close to shopping centres.
