Thanks ! I will check out Varsity Lakes and the catchment area :-)

Hi my names is Jane . my family ( husband and two boys aged 8& 11) and I moved to Toowoomba from Yorkshire August last year. But we are about to be relocated to the Gold Coast with my husbands work. Although we head to the Gold Coast most weekends, we are also trying to find the best state primary schools on the Gold Coast too. We were probably looking at north side of the Gold Coast. Labrador, biggera waters etc.

I would love to hear any info you find out about the areas that are best for families.

We believe you can never make enough new friends. And we know how big a move it is! So please don't hesitate to get in touch.

We definitely don't have any regrets. Australia is a fantastic place to bring children up :-) Good look with the move.

Hi can anyone tell me which is the best state primary schools on the Gold Coast please.

And which is the best areas for families?

We have two sons aged 8 & 11 & we will be moving from Toowoomba to the Gold coast late November.

We moved over from the Uk last year and have loved living in Toowoomba , it is great for families and found the Glenvale state primary school was an excellent choice.

However due to my husbands job been relocated to south of Brisbane we have decided to move to the Gold Coast.

We would appreciate any advice on the best areas for families. We were thinking of the labrador, biggera waters area. As these are on the north side of the Gold Coast. But we are open to any advice as we want to get this move right and don't want to keep moving the boys around.

Hi hope you are enjoying life in Toowoomba. We (Myself , husband and our two boys aged 7 & 10) We moved here a year ago from Yorkshire after my husband got a job here. We are loving life in Oz! Toowoomba is great for family life. The cold weather shocked me though, I wasn't prepared for the bitterly winds haha.

Hi all,

 

Just thought I would shout out to see if there are any fellow poms living in Toowoomba. We moved here a few months ago and what with work and the kids we have not really connected with the locals.

 

Then I had the idea that there must be some poms here with whom we can whinge about all things Australian, reminisce about home and then come to the conclusion we are in the best place in the world! Well Australia I mean, maybe not Toowoomba!

 

Please get in touch.

Have a look what activities the PCYC offer and there also lots of varying sports clubs around.

 

As we have the school holidays coming up the council will also put on activities so check the local paper or council website.

Thanks :-)

Hi I have recently moved to Toowoomba and I'am trying to find clubs that is suitable for my two boys to join. They are aged 10 & 7 . I want to help them settle here and make new friends while keeping them occupied as we can get them into school until November. Especially my 10 year old as he is quite happy to stay sat inside on his play station . I'm looking for any sort of clubs or activities to help get them to meet new friends here in Toowoomba.
