Hi

I've been to visit a few schools in Berwick and for some reason i dont get a good feel from any of them really, not sure why just totally different than the UK

Been to see Harkaway School, nice and small only 170 plus kids, but in the class they have age 6,7,8 in my sons year (he is 8)

seems a little far out too.

Berwick Primary School, have approx 900 kids, with approx 28 per class with one teacher then another class in the same room but divided off and sometime join a class room

Berwick Lodge Primary, have approx 650 kids, with the same approx 26-28 per class one teacher.

Berwick Fields wouldnt let me view until i was in the catchment area.

All the classes seem very noisey and nobody doing any work, apart from talking....lol,

Can anyone please help or put me in the right direct for my 8 year old boy.

Thanks

Sorting out my paperwork ready to go next month and it says I have a 175 visa on the top and 176 on the bottom of the visa grant , our 176 is for QLD but heading to Melbourne thiinking we had the 175 like the visa bureau told us....think I just got the major wobbles incase they sent us back ....lol or couldn't havent citizen ship after 5 yrs...,they said basically its fine go where ever...lol due to my husband having found work already

I'm currently in the process of shipping with John masons and there now saying a need an import permitt for a kids 120watt elctric scooter that goes 10mph and a 12 v battery quad which is for a 3-5 yr old? Think this is daft for children's toys

Has anyone sent any of these items

Thanks

right you have twised my arm....i can print off a new list and complete it at work before sending today.....

should i not put anything on it?.....

think i might just leave it, its only the value of £250.00 what i have put on ....not to mention probably the other £2000K lol

I have already wrote it all on the list.....knowing my luck i will get caught out....lol

If i have put it on the list with they def charge me tax or will they let it go thru because theres only bits of items.

I have loads of new things...beds etc but only put five things on the list..lol

Can you clean tools with Jeyes fluid....this cleaning is doing my head in....lol....and it stinks

there is no way i will declare anything...no waqy the customs going to tax me on that stuff...

 

is the principle of the matter...

Really.....arghhhhh.....i thought i better put something down...what do people think i need an answer sending the info off tomorrow

Thanks....really dont know what to do with these tools...lol

Thanks for the information, i have done the list and put about 5-6 things on it....and theres only two electrical items which there probably more interested in, a new 24inch tv bought at christmas as a present and a microwave.

Thanks

I might declare the tent because we have no used that....but we have bee buying things new to take with us...such as kitchen wear and new bedding, so we can leave the other in the house until we go.

We have a big BBQ too and table and chair but they are 2 yrs old but new in the box ....I suppose we can just unpack and put in one of there boxes.

The new bedding take out of wrappers etc...

What about kids toys there's probably ten mew items do out think they will pull up in that?

Hi

My husband is a joiner and have the shippers coming in a few weeks to send all our goods to Melbourne.

Anyway how did you all ship your tools, my husband is going to send his large saws etc in the container but the hand tools which mphe might need straight away did you send via a courier can you pay extra baggage on the flight? Can they go in a suitcase? These are his drill etc..?

Thanks

Hi

Yeh I have noticed a lot of schools have 20-22 pupils per class which is great...better than 30 here. Have you been over to validate or is your first time, we have been to Melbourne twice once for 6 months about 11 yrs ago and in feb to validate for 3 weeks. We have sold our house and plan to move out on 1st October. Got John Masons coming 3rd sept, providing we can get the contracts signed for the house, not booking flights or paying for shipment until I no for def...lol.

I've heard people say there really expensive over there?

I was thinking of buying new and bringing out ......really don't know what to do load going on n my little head...lol

Don't declare it......I have bought quiet a few items just take it out of the box and get the shippers to pack in there box,

Ask the store if that model has been out more than 12 months or when it was manufactured the can tell off the serial number. If its been manufactured over 12 months ago..they won't know
