Hi Paula

Yes Andrews farm is just around the corner from Smithfield plains and would only take 10 mins in the car on a morning to Blakeview. There is also a private school called ST Columbus in Andrews farm which has quite a good reputation. We were actually concidering sending ours there if we had of stayed permenantly. If you can't drive then it is no good sending them to Blakeview as it would take you a good half hour to walk from Andrews Farm. There are closer schools which are in Smithfield Plains but they are being pulled down soon, but I would not send any of mine there anyway having met the head teachers it was a big no no.

Hi all,

OH and me + 2 girls (7&3) are currently waiting for DIMA to say that my new employer (hopefully) is ok to sponsor me, then its form filling galore :D

Prospective employer has already offered me a job in the north of Addy , so looking to move in around Modbury North and really anywhere north of Grand Jct. Road :p

Re: The Adelaide Thread
 

Wouldn't live in Glenelg :D Nah, really I'd have no problem living anywhere, the roughest parts of SA are no worse than the roughest parts of where I came from and we lived there quite happily for years ;)


Yep, all pretty close really. There all decent areas but really you need to look at them yourself to know if it's where you want to live. I thought I wanted to live in Mawson Lakes where my family where, but after living there for 8 months we decided that it didn't really do it for us in the end. So best thing is for you to have a really good look around, rent somewhere for a while and then after a bit you'll know if it's where you want to be long term. :)

Our on arrival house was in Surrey Downs. Some nice little houses up there and good prices. Surrey Downs primary is a nice little school, too.
