Hi SarahG,

We are going to rent as we are keeping our house here. We have a 6 year old who will go into year 1 when we get there (he will repeat). Butler sounds really nice and I have seen some nice houses for rent on the net. Are there any places to avoid as I have seen a few negative remarks on places near there (not naming any places!).

Sarah.

Hi,

I think the high school in Butler is a private one Irene McCormack Catholic College, so you may have to travel a little for high schools in the area

We are hoping to have a PIO meet in November as this seemed the most popular date as it would give people time to settle.

Ali

Know how you feel! My head is constnatly spinning with trying to organise and reasearch everything. I think sometimes like you say its best to have a day off and forget about trying to get everything sorted!

Great to know that you have meets, it'd be great to get to know some people once we're out there.

Hi Mandy - the meet will be our very first one for the WA branch of PIO - I think we should ask Tim and his missus to grace us with their presence, after all it was Tim that brought us all together so to speak.

Jacky, you'll have withdrawal symptoms within the hour.

Ali

Well not that I want to have whole suburbs out to get me once I arrive but Clarkson doesn't have the best feel to it!! I think the best thing is to get there, have a look round and try and get a feel for as many suburbs as possible so that you know what fits with your kids, your jobs,( a commute from Butler to Rockingham wouldn't be great for instance!!) your lifestyle e.t.c. Everyone worries but the nice thing is there are so many people around you who will have been through the same thing in the last few years so there is alweays someone to lend a shoulder or give some advice. Have you booked your flights? I read somewhere about an immigration office who will give you cheap one way flights if you have been granted your visa adn you get exra luggage capacity as well.
