G'day,

It's a very exciting, and scary, time for you!!

I'm in Cleveland, not the Gold Coast, so can't advise on education there. There's a really good college here, Ormiston College, which might be good to use if you wanted to compare with other options. Good luck with the move and if there's anything else that I can help you with, just let me know.

 

Hi, Welcome to PIO,

I cannot help you with schools as i do not have any kids of school age, but i am sure someone will be along soon with some advice.

I see you are in Wolverhampton at the moment, I was in Dudley before my move here 2 years ago. You will find a lot of Brits in the Gold coast area its very popular, have you taken a look at our parent site "Pomsinoz". You may find some info on there that will assist you. There is also a "Junior section" on PIO and your children may like to look at that and possibly exchange details with other kids there age heading out to Australia.

From one Boltonian to another Welcome to LIQ,,lol. My kids are near enough 8 (girl) and 13(boy),We have been here almost 5 years and are living in land from the Gold Coast. Hubby works down on the coast but we love living 'just out of it' as property is cheaper and you get so much more for your money.
There are lots of good schools dotted around the coast it really depends on where you decide to live and where you secure work as to what school is best though,do you have jobs lined up?
Lots of luck with everything ,if you need any help just yell
