Re: Family heading for Caloundra Aug/Sep
Right thats it.
We were going to go to bellvista but after reading about how much fun you guys are having in Little Mountain i think we will head there instead. Seems like if we go there that we will have a ready made social life and plenty of friends for the kids.
We were planing on going on the 14th of July but once i heard that is Beth's birthday i think we will leave on the 30th of June just to make sure we are there in time for the party
If you guys could give me some info on the school and how long it takes to walk to it would be great and also how your kids are getting on in the school would be great.
It sounds like you guys have a great little click going on and hope that you will let us join when we get there

Re: Family heading for Caloundra Aug/Sep
No need i checked out the website already. Just sounds like you guys are in a great area. We liked the look of belle vista. But after hearing you guys going on about little mountain i think it would be great to be near you's and have some people that we know around us. Even though we have never actually met
But it seems like you guys get on great and the kids have made friends quick which is great.

Re: Family heading for Caloundra Aug/Sep
Dead easy.......the person whose house the meal is in decides the type of meal everyone cooks.
Say my house is a curry night then, each family brings something to eat, like someone brings chips & naan breads, another brings onion rings & pop for the kids, another rice & popadums, another a chicken curry, and then I would have cooked yet another curry.
There is always way too much food on the table LOL but always have a great night
All food is cooked before it's brought to my house, so we can eat when everyones gets here
At the moment there are 10 adults & 14 children.........looks like we'll be expanding fast!!!

Re: Family heading for Caloundra Aug/Sep
Hi Paddy I lived there and loved it, there is a bus for the school ( I used to see it every morning when I was bringing mine to Maroochydore) as far as I know. or you can get the 603 in to the interchange in Caloundra and go from there as there are loads of school in that area. Im sure some one else knows for sure you wouldn't walk from bellvista to the primary school in the heat any way you'd be dead on your feet LOL you would cycle though we used to cycle to the IGA shop in the evening there is a short cut easy to find

Re: Family heading for Caloundra Aug/Sep
Hi all been reading your thread and really want to live in caloundra now! lol were hoping to be coming over next March and i was looking into the redcliffe area, but am worried my two older kids at 11 and 12 ( 13 and 12 when we come over) would be too quiet for them? any thoughts? Caloundra looks like theres more to do for them. my little one will be 2 and a half by then. Any good schools that u reccomend? would be great to join u you all sound so friendly!
I will warn all the spiders that you are coming
