Hi Rachel,
How are the moving plans going? We are also a family of five. I am 29, Hubby 31, two sons 11 and 6, and my beautiful daughter is 3. We live in Whyalla, South Australia. My Hubby is a Locomotive Driver would love to get a job in Mackay, we look at the job vacancies everyday but there is only seasonal work advertised at the monment. I can't help you with any of your questions, but I would love to hear about your moving experience and would appreciate any tips. We don't know what area to live in either. My boys are a little unsure about starting new schools, I hope your girls settle in well. Goodluck with everything.
