mandurah/bunbury

Hi All,
sorry but after 10 years here thers no contest,Mandurah easily outwieghs Bunbury, yes Bunbury is cheaper but thats cause theres nothing there,your not near anything, where as Mandurah has it all, and near to the city and jobs the lot , honest theres nothing to think about, but its your choice .................
best regards,
Davy@Anna

We're also having the same problem B v M, but Bunbury seems to be winning at the moment.
We have 2 boys coming with us (8 and 3) so we need decent schools etc too(any help would be appreciated)

we won't be coming till next year (hopefully )as we can't put in our visa till October but have started the process , just waiting for the outcome of the tra.
It all depends if Kev gets a job in either of these places that makes our final decision.(but we still hoping for Bunbury)

Kev & Dawn

P.S. Keep in touch

Bunbury is fantastic especially if you come from a village in UK. There are negatives but they are few and far between - distance to Perth and limited Shops (if you like shopping) this will effect you. But for friendly, family orientated environment - bunbury....
Schools, there are private and government and can forward info on either if you would like.

Goodluck and yes, you or your husband will have no problem getting employment

Hi Everyone

We have been in WA since 2003 living in Busselton for the first 3 years due to work and family. We have since moved to Bunbury in October of last year and we all think its great. You have everything here that you need, shops, schools, tafe, university, hospital etc as well as beaches, parks, walks, and plenty of sport for the sport minded. I have two boys aged 12 and 17 and although they had settled in Busselton and didnt want to move they agree its got a lot more going for it. Its big enough but not too big if you know what I mean.
I just wanted to let anyone know who is already here that we are meeting up at Dalyellup Central Park where the lake is, at 2pm on Easter Sunday if anyone would like to join us. There are quite a few new expats who have arrived and we usually meet up somewhere for coffee or lunch during the week. I have made so many nice friends this way. We are taking a picnic with us and there will be cricket and other sports for the kids.

Hope to see some of you there. If anyone wants any other info please just ask and we will try and help.

Jan :)

Spending some time at the sports centre to get invoved in clubs to make friends, but wondered if there was any bbq/drinking buddies out there? I know its going into winter - but brits are used to bbqs in the rain!!
