Guest redlee71 Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 Hi everyone, Well where to start, we arrived in Berwick on 27th August so we are very new to all this. By we I mean, me, Lisa 39, on the cusp of the big one!, my hubby, Nick 43 and our four children, 18,16,14,and 12. My eldest is already having a wobble and wants to go back to the UK:confused:. We have enrolled the other 3 into Berwick Secondary College but they dont start until October so we are all going a tad stir crazy in the house alone. We would love to meet up with others in the area and get together for drinks and a laugh, we are determined to make this the move that is right for all of us and are looking forward to meeting new people.

VictoriaP Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 Hi Lisa Welcome to PIO and like Kate said, there are loads of great people in Berwick and you'll all make friends in no time. We've been living in Glen Waverley since we arrived in Aus last April but are moving down to Berwick as soon as we can find somewhere to rent. We've got two daughters 14 & 10 who will be starting Hillcrest school (near Berwick) in 2012, so would really like to be down that way before Christmas. It was my 40th a few months back and I haven't crumpled in to a pile of dust so far :-) so it's all good. Best of luck getting settled. All I can say is give yourselves time. We had a tough first year but now really feel we've made a great decision in emigrating. Victoria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest VickyBro Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Hi Lisa Reading your post took me back 3 years to when we first arrived. It does get better :wubclub: I have 2 boys (18 & 14) who attend Berwick Secondary College now and they like it, so hopefully yours will be the same. Both Gavin (43) and I (42 and counting!) would love to catch up with you and see how you're going. I work in Narre Warren so if you would like to meet for coffee or something first just send me an email on vbrown@casey.vic.gov.au and we'll make some arrangements. Hope to hear from you soon Vicky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
