Kay Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Hi there Im a single parent of two and a newly qualified primary school teacher. I have always wanted to move to Perth and I'm thinking of making the move late next year. Am I crazy for wanting to move on my own with two young children or will Perth give me the outdoor social family life I have craved?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travelchic Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Hi there. I am moving to Perth next year also and i am going as a single parent with my little boy who will be 6 then. Looks like we'll be in the same boat. I chose Perth because i have a couple of friends there. Will you know anyone there at all. Deb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kay Posted August 27, 2012 Author Share Posted August 27, 2012 My friends sister lives in Perth an I lived there for a year when I was very little but not really. I think that's why it is a bit daunting because I have my children with me all the time I don't want to feel isolated. I have just started my NQT year part time so looking at between December2013 and July 2014 at being out there. I work part time here and would love to do the same in aus. It's scary but just always wanted to go an feel it's the right time my son is nearly 3 and my daughter 5 . I am looking at going for 3 weeks in April for a holiday first xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travelchic Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 From what i gather you can get help towards child care and some towards your wages if you work part time but don't quote me on that. Where about does your friend live. Deb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or so you need one? As WA are not sponsoring Primary Teachers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
