Thanks for the info on cars, we will take a look, we really love the mountain creek area, we have a visit at the school on Friday, saw Buderim school today.

Hi yes he’s a carpenter by trade but is looking for site manager work, had an interview at hays recruiment yesterday . We are going to look at mountain creek school next week. We have looked at Meridan school which seemed nice but very big. Do you know much about Sippy Downs? They seem to be building lots of new houses everywhere , we were by harmony the other day. We came across our first spider last night! Huntsman we think, it was huge!! Maroochydore was very busy and like you say a lot going on there! The beaches are beautiful here, we went to Currimundi beach too and will be looking at the school there next week. So much to think about! If you know anywhere to look for cars that you could recommend that would be much appreciated ? cheers

Hi yes all our belonging went on the 30th July, we didn’t sent any furniture only the sofa, it hasn’t left yet it leaves apparently on the 27th... yes we are also sitting on garden chairs and managing on basics! We are from between Worcester and Birmingham a place called Bromsgrove. Yes I’ll let you know how we go with the schools, I have 6 school visits booked, the school we really like is chancellor state college but they won’t allow visits before enrolment but agreed to let us go into the school office to speak with them. There is so much to do and think if but little time! My daughter would of gone into year 2 in September but in Australia will repeat the rest of the year in year 1 but I would really like to get her settled into school before the long summer holiday. Good luck with the job situation and hopefully you can secure something before you go.

Hey How exciting! We fly out on Sunday and we have a holiday home for 5 weeks in Caloundra whilst we look around schools , secure job and rental. We haven’t been to Caloundra before but thought it was a great base to explore the area. We have two girls they are nearly 4 and 7 years. We have so much to still sort before we fly I Sunday and trying to clear the house out! Where are you from ? Sounds like you are familiar with Caloundra!

Hi thanks! Yes heard there is a lot of building work going on , hopefully will find some work quickly! What’s wrong with Maroochydore high then? Yes state system and heard mountain creek was quite good. We were going to stay in mooloolaba, looks very nice there and hope to visit.

Hello Thanks for the replies, we are staying at kings beach Caloundra for 5 weeks as a base whilst we explore the area, we have quite a few visits to schools arranged, the school we would really like to visit is chancellor state in Sippy downs but they won’t allow school tours until you enrol. I’m a Construction Site Manager so will be looking for work . Where are you based? Any advice on the schools would be great and just general advice for when you first arrive, it’s quite daunting !!! Cheers
