Hi- where do I start?

Adrian O · 07-01-2008, 09:01 PM

Hi All, just joined PIO. My family and I will be moving out to Mount Gambier in South Aus this year. I'm pretty lucky as my move is with my company so work is sorted and they will take care of all of our Visa preparation(457). I have 2 young children and was wondering how you go about getting them started in school and if a temp visa causes any problems.

Any advice greatly appreciated

Hi Adrian O and

to PIO, sorry can't help with your questions about schooling, but i'm sure someone will be able to help you.

Good luck with the move.

Hi Adrian,

Wecome to PIO. We're also moving to South Australia when we've sold our house. Mount Gambier does look lovely, we've looked at is as a possible destination. Good luck with it all, I'm sure someone can help with your queries re.schooling etc. Try doing a search for Mount Gambier, there might be some previous threads about it,

Welcome aboard x

I've read in several places that temporary residence often means school fees have to be paid - though sometimes the wording used is 'non residents' (and I don't know if that's the same thing)

This may help further

Good luck
