Hi Michelle, lovely to here from you. We're very close by in Mooloolaba, and would love to meet up. Have you got a mobile yet? My number is 0467 223215. Possibly meeting up with another family from pomsinoz tomorrow or weekend so it'd be lovely to all meet together. Are your kids at school? Our daughter started this week and seems to be ok. If you can't ring, just get in touch through pomsinoz again. Jocelyn

We have literally arrived this week and missing home too, would love to meet up and make new friends. Our 13 year old daughter is particularly struggling, till she starts school she won't meet anyone. Matthew flinders looks great, we've met the teachers and headmaster and they're all very friendly. Jocelyn

Hi Katy, spoke to you a few weeks ago, and said I'd get in touch when we arrived. We got here on Monday, and you're right it's very beautiful. Our 13 year old daughter is struggling already and misses her friends, any suggestions? We're missing people too but if she was settled we'd be happy. Went to see her new school on Thursday and that looks great so maybe when she starts there she will settle better, fingers crossed. Is you want to meet up for coffee, that'd be great. Jocelyn

Thanks again, yes will certainly get in touch as soon as we arrive. I'm glad your kids settled well, I hope our daughter does too, it's my biggest worry, well that and getting jobs! We really struggled to pick a school, knowing so little about the education system in Oz , but our friend from the uk who has been there 18 months suggested Matthew flinders. Did you get jobs before leaving the uk? It's much easier for nurses as you're much more sought after than lab staff! although when we there at Xmas I was offered a post, so hopefully I should get something. Jocelyn

Hi Katy, thanks for the reply. Our daughter is going to Matthew Flinders in October, which I think is in Buddina. We're renting in Mooloolaba for 3 months in holiday accomodation, then we will find somewhere more permanent. I'll be looking for a job in a hospital as soon as we're settled, as I work in hospital labs. How old are your kids? Do they like their schools? We have never been to Mooloolaba but we've been nearby on the Sunshine Coast last Christmas, and weather was gorgeous so can't wait to grab some sunshine. Jocelyn

Hi, we are moving to Mooloolaba on sept 13th and have a 13 year old daughter. Where abouts are you? We'd love to meet some newby's like us in Oz when we arrive.
