Hi, Thanks for that link, I will find out if our school falls under this area, I just happened to know about the fee increase as a friend of mine on a 457, who has a child already attending will continue to pay normal fees around $2000 pa, however her youngest who is starting kindy next term will pay the full $4500. Our School office did say they hadn't had full confirmation yet but the draft said it was to be in line with state school fees, she will be very pleased if its going to be less, thanks for that. Cheryl.

Hi, Sorry to be the bearer of more bad news but our catholic school in Miranda Sydney, are increasing fees in line with the NSW rates for 457 holders as of next school term, I think this is at least state wide for the catholic schools but you might want to double check that. Good luck.

Hi Tania, I have just finalised my registration with AHPRA in July and didn't have a job offer in place, or any intention of working immediately. I would get my registration completed as soon as possible, they change the goalposts all the time and it may be even more difficult to register in 2013. Do you know anyone in Australia whose address you could use, set up your oz bank account and have that and some other mail sent there so you have id with an address? Good luck Cheryl.

Hi, I dont think all private schools have high class numbers,my knowledge is limited to mine and friends experiences though, my friends daughter attends a private school in north sydney, they have smaller class numbers than ours but similar to the state schools. They also pay a fortune for that though. Cheryl.

Hi Cal As long as you ring ahead to make an appointment the schools will be happy to see you, getting into a catholic school if your not catholic might be tricky though, they have to have a non discriminatory policy on admissions but they do have a policy of offering places to children from catholic families first. When we went for our interview the first thing they asked us for was my daughters baptismal certificate. Class sizes in catholic schools are much bigger than the state schools most classes have around 30-32 children in them, I think the state schools have something like 18-20?. And a significant amount of class time is taken up with learning about the religion and various masses that we are always being invited too. None of this is any issue for us and we are really impressed with the school, but if your not prepared for it I can well imagine it would seem quite full on. Good luck with your search hope this is helpful. Cheryl.

Hi All, I have been having this sort of problem with ahpra for months, I trained at Napier university Edinburgh started February 1999, my husband who trained in London at exactly the same time same diploma only less points has already been working here in Australia for 6months. They would like a breakdown of exactly how many hours of theory and practice I did in aged care nursing, mental health nursing, surgical and medical nursing, I didn't do much if any aged care as I did child health branch, the uni are taking forever to sort it out they promised to post it at christmas but AHPRA still haven't received it yet?

Hi Emma, To register you need AHPRA the new registration board not ANMC, ANMC deal only with skills assesment for visas if you google AHPRA, you should be directed to the website good luck. Cheryl.

Hi Emma, You only need to register with the ANMC for skills assesment in order to get a visa, but if your going on your husbands visa you wont need to do this, im going on my hubby's visa too so am in the same position, As of the begining of July most of the Australian nursing boards have merged so i think you now need to apply to AHPRA for registration, some of the states have yet to join so i would check to see if this applies to you, hope this helps, good luck, Cheryl.

Hi all, Im new to this forum but hoping someone can help, i recently sent off my application for registration to the nmb with all the neccessary paperwork and have had a response saying my transcript doesnt include theoretical work in the following areas, medical nursing, surgical nusring, aged care nursing, mental health and community nursing,, however my nursing diploma which i completed in 2002 is child health specific and im registered as a child health nurse, i know in australia there are no such distinctions, has anyone else experienced this, can they just place a restriction on my practice any advice would be great,, thanks cheryl.
