  8. Well we have now been here 6 weeks and it has been 6 weeks of hell. I'm a plumber and in the uk with 20 years experience I did vetasse. I was thinking this would get me by till I got my full licence. Lol !!. The day we landed I arranged an appointment with tafe to see where I stood. Michelle Elliott was my point of contact she flicked though my qualifications not really looking at them and told me I needed to do these 5 courses (just like rob told us at the start of the thread) she then said to go along to the CBS and apply for my restricted licence. I did this and they turned me away. I had only got cerified copies of my qualification with me and they wanted the originals (or so I thought). A week or two later with no restricted licence my courses were due to start. The first two courses were cancelled. What a joke! I was starting to panic no one plumbing companies would look at me at this point. I then contacted TRA they told me that all I needed to do was to show the CBS my vetasses form and then I would get my restricted licence. (woohoo one problem solved) they then said PEER was starting to do the gap training so I went to see them (lol) they said it would take a year to get my licence and I would not be able to get any work until then. By week 5 I was fed up with this everyone tells up something different. I went back to tafe and signed on to the next course(gas) and I went and visited some plumbing companies. Most were not interested. One company did seem a little interested so I left my resume with him and then for the next week I constantly pestered him. It resulted in me getting a plumbing poistion ( permanent). I'm now working alongside another bloke and I'm on ok money not as much as I would like. Message to all you plumbers coming out is it's hard work. They don't make it easy. It is possible to make it work but make sure you have the money behind to carry you just in case. Once qualified the work is there. Hope this helps.
  9. Hello everyone, we have been here 6 weeks now and we are loving it my only concern is my four year old. In the uk Harvey had already started full-time education and was in the reception class at the local primary school. He was doing really well and enjoying being at school. Since being in oz he doesn't start school here until October 2012, he's at kindy 2 days a week and he loves it there and he goes to a four plus on a Friday afternoon which he also seems to like. But he's back to being at home with mum on a Wednesday and Thursday and he's bored. I'm looking for a good nursery/daycare near port noarlunga. It needs to be something like kindy more than a toddler group. He's missing school and learning.
