Broadly

Fab thanks for your advice! I will check out your link! QUOTE=Zebradeb;85883]I have no personal experience of schools in the area. This may help in school selection http://www.myschool.edu.au/ I don't think anything replaces a visit yourself though. Im a teacher and think its safe to say that one persons experience of a school may differ to that of another. See if you can narrow down and then visit on shore & make your decision from there. State schools will only enrol within catchment, but once in catchment you secure a place even if over subscribed. Hope this helps.

What are the wages like in perth please?

Thank you for your reply, very helpful! Hopefully moving out by May. I did go to perth 2 years ago and look at few schools, comet bay college, tramby and the catholic one in rockingham. I guess when we arrive I need to view them with my daughter and see which one is best for her needs. Private tuition sounds like a good idea. We have a tutor 1 hour a week here in the u.k and does help!

Thanks for your reply loulou.

Ok cheers!

Hi due to move to Perth soon. is it worth shipping a car from anyone's personal experience? waiting on reply from Iron Lady! have an Audi q7, 2006 model, owned over 12 months. Looked on site and my car is worth more in oz than here but just wondered what costs I would have to pay for shipping and getting it on the road in oz? Do I do it myself or pay a company?

Hi moving to Perth soon. I have a child who has mild cerebral palsy. She can walk, run do most things and is in main stream school. I just wondered would I have to pay for hospital appointments?? she see's a paediatrician here in the uk every few months? Thanks in advance!

Intresting lou! Yes my daughter is mild dyslexic but her school doe's have a senco. I also have a private tutor here in the uk to make sure she stays at bay! I wondered what the process in Perth is like for our children? I also have a child with mild cerebral palsy who is in main stream school here and does well. I wondered if Perth schools supported this too? Such a massive decision moving them schools especially when they struggle slightly. Looking forward to some replies!

Hi, moving to oz soon. I just wondered if anyone knew if there were senco's in Perth schools or an equivalent? In the uk they have a senco in the schools that would help children with learning difficulties. I believe the job of a senco is to help children if they are struggling with reading, writing, behaviour or a condition such as autism plus and much more. They offer extra support to these children. Thanks in advance!

Ok thanks!

Cheers good to know

thanks for your reply, will keep your number over in April!

Hi new to Perth poms! Moving out to South Perth in a few months. Just wondered how work is in this area for bricklayers? Also has anyone applied to become a registered builder to sign off houses and build your own? I have 22 years experience as a bricklayer but can do most things. Just wondered what pay is like and is work available? Thanks in advance!

Anyone know what it's like to live in secret harbour?

Hi looking at moving to south Perth soon. How does Medicare work? I have a child with mild cerebral palsy and wondered what the hospitals are like out there? Just for routine check ups I guess! Thanks in advance!
