Hi Caroline We lived in Point Cook for a few months when we arrived and I wasn't impressed with the area. The have concentrated on building houses and have forgotten that people need to get around (very limited public transport). There is no train station and its a nightmare to get onto and off the freeway at peak times. Schools are also zoned but I can give you a list of the schools and you can contact them and they can tell you the zoned area, its also very difficult to get daycare/kinder places as they don't have enough spaces for all the kids in the are. If you are on Facebook you should check out the Point Cook Residents page, its very interesting. Don't want to put you off but its best to know before you get here. JVM

Hi Rob Don't know if you've moved here or not but we've been here a few years and live in Wyndham Vale ( Manor Lakes). We love the area here and it has everything we want for our two young kids (5 and 6). Its close to the freeway for access either to Geelong (25 mins) or the City (30 mins). Construction has also started on a direct train line to both the above places. I know people have been telling you about break ins etc but to be honest you are going to get that in any area here in the west. Let me know if you need any other help. JVM

<p>Hi Maz</p>
<p>We're using Visa Connection, but enough said about them the better, thankfully our visa been lodged and we can check it online ourselves now! We're also hoping to go to Melbourne early next year. We went to Oz about 3yrs ago and loved it. We stayed in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and the Gold Coast but for us Melbourne was the best place to bring up our kids!</p>
<p>Flight was ok we flew direct with BA and they were great, OH got free drink all the way and I slept most of it! </p>
<p>Hope all goes well with your wedding!</p>
