Re: Bunbury WA
Our kids are 7(girl) 5 (boy) and 9 month old (girl)
They enjoy most sports, especially swimming and soccer.
Our 7 year old is very keen on horses so would like to get her into horse riding somewhere near by.
We are also looking into Girl Guides/Scouts.
They enjoy playing outside and interacting with others.
We will be based in Dalyellup, is the primary school any good?
also daycare centres however these can be in Bunbury as thats where we shall be working.
Thanks
Lew and Kate

Re: Bunbury WA
Well not having kids I'm not the best to answer! There are a few BE-ites from this part of the world who may be able to answer better.
From Dallyelup, there is definitely soccer nearby - if not in Dallyellup itself then in Bunbury. For horses you are very close to Gelorup where there is adjistment so whether you can get in with someone I don't know.
I'm sure all the things you seek will be here.
Bunbury area is fine to live, certainly day to day it has everything you want and need. Its close enough to Perth if a day trip is needed and offers great access to the South West - again Margs can be done in a day.
Also on your doorstep is the Ferguson valley which is slowly "growing up".
For me its a mixture here and hard to explain - a lot of whats good about living here can also be its drawbacks. I guess sometimes you want to give the place a damn good kick up the backside but then sometimes thats its charm too as its not necessarily trying to be somewhere its not - like some places in WA.
