Hi,
My youngest daughter Nikki came to oz with me when she was 12, she left behind in the uk many friends along with 2 sisters aged 18 & 21 - Nikki has settled very well here in Oz and loves it, she has made many friends and is in her words "havin a ball" - the kids at her high school clung to her like a magnet in the first few weeks as they just loved her accent -
Almost 2 years on, Nikki has the same friends she made when she first got here along with new friends too - she still keeps in touch with old mates in the uk via msn etc.
My advice to you as a mum would be to get your 2 lads into any sport,clubs etc that they enjoy as soon as you can when you get here - becuase the more they enjoy what they are doing & their surroundings the more eaiser they will get involved with the kids around them.
all the best
