Hello everyone.

Arriving - OH mid March (hopefully). Still waiting for visa. Have had silly problems getting medical clearance, submitted consultants report and supporting ultrasound clearance and now have fingers and toes crossed. Have been told good to go on everything else. We will them join OH probably end of April.

Location - Christchurch. OH has a job on the re-build

Who - husband, me, son 13, daughter 10. Daughter is keen, son NOT and I am very worried about how he will settle.

Why - looking for more space. Looking for a place with land to have chickens and a dog and maybe some sheep. Grow our own veg, not have to queue for ever. UK is just so crowded.

Interested on views on Rangiora High. Son is currently at good grammar school and doing well (not top of the pile, but not struggling). He is good at sport (very good at football, are there any local teams to Rangiora?)

What is the commute into Chch like at rush hour?

Would love to speak to anyone with son in Y9 who may be able to help son settle in.

Thank you.

Ok - we've officially slipped into this thread from the other, sorry!

Who: Myself and OH

When: Flying out from Manchester on March 11th and landing March 13th.

Why: OH has a job (and I think I may now have a couple of offers!) and because we're wooed by the simplicity and space.... *relative* simplicity. Visas and all the rest are not but I'm hoping it's all worth it! Pretty much what Kentishgirl said!

Moving to: Auckland initially (company setting us up) and possibly a little further South thereafter. I've been looking for hours on end online but think I'd rather be there before I say yay or nay!

...and that's us!
