Twisted my arm, we will come but not available 15th or 22nd. But if it falls on that then not to worry.

Hi The places you mentioned are all pretty rural, larger plot sizes etc. Dural is nice. We live in Rouse hill ( some of it is built up) but we live on a rural street. It's handy as it's got the benefits of being literally minutes from shops, services etc. Although I didn't fancy our little girl starting at the rouse hill school as it is so big, so went for Annangrove public school, only a 5-10 minute drive and it only has 78 kids and lots of natural space around it. Good community spirit and really encourages parental involvement. Ie; they don't mind you bringing younger siblings with you if you want to help out in the classroom. It also holds a playgroup once a week in the school as well. Good luck with your search.

Hi Many of the schools have strict catchment areas so you really do need to know where you will be living. Just make a list of places you like the look of and arrange to visit them, when we moved to rouse hill, we couldn't get in to a couple because we were in the wrong catchment area ( other side of the road) and then I didn't fancy sending my daughter somewhere with huge numbers. We found 'Annangrove public school' took out of area students. When we went for a look round my daughter was immediately comfortable. It has less than 80 pupils in total and it has a great environment. The kindy room is great, it has everything and more than a lot of the private schools in the area that we have looked at. There is lots of space outside, veggie patches, chickens , lots of interaction with the older children. Parental participation is encouraged Nd is a great way to meet people. So far we are very pleased with our choice. Its only about a 15min drive from kellyville, so it may be an option.

I can't find the like button. See what happens when you don't come on for a week or two! Great about meeting up. My two are 4 and 2 although the youngest is a boy. i'll PM you my mob number so we can track each other down on sunday. Hope that pesky rain stays away.

Hi To all those settled in or new to the Hills. There is a community fair on sunday 18th March 3-7pm in Annangrove Park. Cnr Annangrove road & Currie Ave. free entry. There are apparently 'free' rides for children and adults! Food stalls and craft/business stalls. Think we will be going, anyone fancy going or meeting up?
