Hi Sally
We are hoping to go to either Mount Eliza, Mornington or South Frankston. My preference is Mount Eliza but we will look at all 3 areas again. The other area is Aspendale/Mordialloc a bit further up the penisula - but that is not our preferred area it would only be to give us more options for supply work as you are nearer the city.Our budget is $400 a week, so should get something for that, but the kids would love a pool for the summer- so i hope we will be lucky. We will arrive on the 12th Aug and go and stay with friends who live in Trafalgar in Gippsland- 2 hrs or so out of melbourne to get over jet lag and then while John is with me we will go down to the penisula to have a good look and leave our kids with our friends. I am going to ask the deputy principle of the school I didn't get the job in, if he thinks it is best to position ourselves up the penisula or not. I have also got a load of other questions to ask him when I get my feedback after 13th July- I may ask about some supply work there. Have you been doing supply? Anyway you are right just enjoy the excitement of getting there- my OH has said the same thing. The issue is he will have to come back and work a term more so we have money coming in- but I am sure we will survive. Hopefully we can catch up for coffee/beer when we get there.
Speak soon

Hi , Have been here for nearly 6 months now. Have had a really tough time because of one thing and another including breaking my leg! Not working yet as dont seem to be able to get my foot in the door, so to speak. I am a primary school teacher. Husband is working and happy but I am so bored. Love the area but need to find a social life. Anyone out there in the Mount Martha/Mornington area - maybe in the same boat - want to meet up for coffee locally? I am in my 40's. Love to hear from you - may stop me from going insane, or packing my case and going home!!! lol!
