Guest Nikki35 Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 Hi Nikki . Thanks for the advice . We have looked at Lake joondalup + 3 program , have you heard anything positive about this one ? Also , we checked out Whitfords Catholic , l;ooks very good . Might be ok for the Eldest , but what about the 2 yo? Can he get in there in any way ? Andy Sorry just seem this. 2 year old Childcare centre but Whitfords do a pre kindy programme from 3. 2 days a week at 50$ a day. But expensive as not subsidised by Govt. Childcare will be fine as you will get all the rebate back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that. But Banksia Grove is full of immigrants from Africa etc and believe me it definitely is. Tapping is fine. Check crime statistics out on it.

Check crime statistics out on it. I believe you! But as there isn't anyone to defend banksia, and aren't you an immigrant? Seems harsh to be hard on an area due to the colour of the people who live there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check crime statistics out on it. The majority of suburbs are full of immigrants, your post doesn't come across very well hightlighting peoples colour as a reason not to live there (which probably wasn't your intentention).

ali Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 (edited) bogans and refugees are two different things. Bogan tends to describe people that are unsophisticated have limited education, attitude etc., whilst Refugee is someone who has usually been persecuted because of race, colour, religion etc., Edited December 6, 2012 by ali Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ali Posted December 7, 2012 Report Share Posted December 7, 2012 State schools are meant to be not as good as UK ones. and thats froma few people i know plus also an australian teacher. I would disagree as this hasn't been my experience - although we've only been here almost 6 years. I have two children both in the state system and haven't had any problems, they're learning needs are met and my daughter is awaiting WACE results and hopes to be offered a place at UWA. In what way do you know it to be worse than the UK? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ruthp Posted January 21, 2013 Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 Hello, my family and I are looking to move out to Perth this June. I have four children ranging from 3 up to 13. I really need to know where the good state schools are so I can start looking at accommodation in those areas. Can you help me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jantplus3 Posted January 22, 2013 Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 hello again, were currently in bayswater as its close to the cbd for a short commute, but we're looking around for a more permanent place to stay. We quite liked mindarie, however the commute to the cbd is about as much as we would like. We would like a familly friendly beach with not too many steps as i have a double buggy which i rely on.... We need a primary school for our eldest, although i don't think he'll go till next feb, (am i right?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
