The school our kids go to organise regular morning teas for parents who are new to the area so they can meet with others and the kids have school 'buddies' to help them adjust and find their way around. Seems to work well.

Our neighbours were fantastic with us when they found out we were new to Australia, they used to take me out shopping and show me around :thumbsup:, couldn't have asked for better neighbours. Even on the plane on the way over, a couple from Helensvale gave us their phone number and said they'd do anything they could to help :)
