Elsie Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 Hi, we've been living here for 3 years now but I agree with you that when children are older its more difficult to make new friends. We have 2 children 15 and 27 and like you our eldest decided to stay in the uk We live 10 mins from the city. Have you decided where to settle yet? look forward to hearing from you Amanda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helenhope Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 How exciting to read this thread. A great big hello to all of you. We are leaving Brisbane for Perth in approx. 8 weeks to get my 5 year old into pre primary for the first day (she just doesn't know it yet) We have the chance of a place at Mater Christi in Yangebup so will be looking at rentals in all the areas you guys have mentioned above. I would love to meet up with you when we arrive, this is going to be such a stressful couple of months for us all. Just like starting all over again from the UK. I have worked tirelessly for a smooth transition from Kindy to Prep for my little one, as she is a sensitive soul and I don't have the heart to tell her she will not be going to that school after all. May need the tissues too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sorrel Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 Hello ladies! I'm Sorrel (43) and my husband is Chris (43). We are moving to Perth with some of our family, arriving 1st Jan. I have three children, two boys (19 & 17) and a girl (6) and two step children, a boy (18) and a girl (15). My children will come with us but my step children will join us for holidays initially, until they decide what to do. We haven't sorted out anywhere to live yet but that's next on the list - will be looking for short term initially, a few weeks perhaps. Looking forward to the move and to making friends and embracing a new life. Would love to keep in touch and hook up once we're there. I think a Facebook group is a great idea, please keep me updated! :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
