Guest Jaynie Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Hi Girls. Try this site for some prices on school uniforms, Lowes is the usual place to buy them however I checked their website and there was no info on them, so googled this one, should give you an idea anyway.

God if she's anything like mine I feel sorry for you, they live in Nelson Bay, so a good hour or so away from us, but they still manage to turn up uninvited!!! Girls we have two polls going about washing machines and Hoovers, so you should join in the Fun.:biglaugh: Liverpool are well supported over here, Probably cos of Harry Kewell, hope Hubbie doesn't switch alliances!

Guest yvonne-d Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Hi all, We live in Newcastle and my hubby works in Carington. Been here about three months , we live in suburb called Ashtonfield quite a nice place good schools, one child in primary, new school very good called Ashtonfield primary, other two girls in Grossmann high school, again they have been fantastic with the girls and more than helpfull getting it all sorted. Have uniforms made as works out cheeper, skirts about $45 tunics $40 fit better as well. All suburbs have diffrent things going for them, but remember scools have catchments like England so be carefull where you rent. hope this helps Yvonne.

sandramcd Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Hi there, It's lovely to know there are quite a few of us heading to Newcastle. My lot are also total Liverpool nuts and very concerned that they will have to miss watching matches and Match of the Day! They feel slightly better that the Newcastle Jets(?) won the league last year and that their manager is an ex Liverpool player - apparently! OH has already checked out how much season tickets are!
