Hi All,

Just a quick intro about myself and my family we are Mark and Debbie and 3 kids Amy 9,Lathan 2.4 and Ellen-Mae 9 months.
We received our stni visa grant letter last week and are still in a state of shock as we didn't expect this to happen before June/July we only did our meds in March!

Anyway we have been talking to our settlement officer in the ACT goverment and they have been really helpful with the rental questions,Job info etc but we really are interested in finding out about all the usual things cost of living, work,schools,getting to know people in fact anything really it sounds a great place with a real balance but I know it gets a bad press from some other quarters so lets have the truth now!

Look foward to making new friends and being a Canberran I think thats the right?

Kind Regards

Mark & Family
