Munchkinella 533 Posted April 30, 2012 (edited) Well done you!! Congratulations! :smile: My husband, who goes into schools as part of his job, had to have a Working with Children check when here in Aus. Maybe check with your future employer. Hope that helps.

calNgary 8,548 Posted April 30, 2012 Well done and fingers crossed here that your final interview goes just fine.. Cal x If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward, you're always in the same place... If you get a chance,take it, If it changes your life,let it. Nobody said it would be easy they just said it would be worth it... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
