Hi all

Visa Granted 01/04, house sold.............so here we come. Heading over to Wellington Point / Cleveland / Birkdale area, so excited.

Has anyone heard much about Sheldon College?? We hope to arrive mid august and get our girls into school, aged 8 and 5, any info would be appreciated.

Hi Harry and Elaine

YEAHY!! How exciting!! When do you arrive? If you are in need of a coffee / chat / help when you arrive or before you arrive, please give me a shout. I live in Thornlands - this whole area is lovely.

Sheldon College - well people seem to have strong views about Sheldon - it's either WONDERFUL or IT'S TERRIBLE - now when I say terrible I don't mean that it's a bad school - it is an excellent school, however it has a reputation of being very strict - VERY strict. It's the school that everyone loves to hate at sports carnivals etc. It depends what you are looking for from a school. If you are looking at Sheldon, then you might want to think about looking at Ormiston College, Redlands College and Faith Lutheran. They are all excellent schools as well. A little further away is Moreton Bay College, also excellent. There are school buses from this area though.

Hope that helps a bit for now. Let me know if you need anything.

CONgrats on your VISA

 

I worked at Sheldon College only for a day or two..... not as a teacher. It looks a real smart place for a kid. Lots of facilities etc. I also heard it is a strict place.

 

Hi,
my partner and I emmigrated 5 years ago, we lived in melbourne and just relocated last week to victoria point, near where you will be. Weve got 2 kids a wild 3 1/2 year old boy and our 8 month daughter who were both born here..would be nice to meet up for a wine/coffee when you arrive.
