We have moved to Rockingham. We have been here 4 weeks and have a rental unit, bought car and hubbie has work 3 month contract. If anyone wants advice on Rockingham city. I know my way there and back and what shops are where, where the hospital is and some GP's, bottleshop, haven't found a pub yet though.

I am not on here much but will try and reply to any pm if anyone wants Rockingham specific help.

If anyone is in childcare make sure you take your CRB with you and have it up to date then you can use that as a start. I have had major problems with red tape to get the working with children check. You need an address to apply and some agencies will not accept you without it even for babysitting. You need lots of things so be aware that it may take you time to get that ID prior to being able to look for work.

We are still finding our feet. My hubbie and I have had lots of redtape issues but love Rockingham and I am going out to look to buy a property. The work really is here if you want it.

My hubbie can tell you about public transport in Perth as he travels from Rockingham to East Perth every day.

Anyway gotta fly
