Hi all,
I'm moving to Wellington for 3 years in early June. I'm Irish, but have been living in Sydney for the past 13 years. My wife and 2 girls (3 and 6) will follow a month later. We're looking to rent in the Northern suburbs initially around Khandallah/Ngaio etc. I know only a few people, and my wife and kids none! I'll be tuning into the wellrocks dot com blog and hopefully will catch up with some of you

Hi
I'm in Churton Park with a just over 2 1/2 year old & one due in the next 4 weeks so not sure how busy I'll be but feel free to pm me when your wife gets here & I can point her in the right direction for all sorts to keep the 3 year old amused, maybe meet up for a coffee
Good luck

I live in Khandallah and am also Irish (from Cork) with young children (8, 5, 3 and 1). I tried to pm you but not available as yet so feel free to pm me if you want any info on schools, etc and to meet up when you arrive. There is plenty to do so happy to help.

Hello Bartbaker33
Soon you will be in Wellington and Welly Rocks is planning to organise a meet up on the 7th of June. This will be published shortly and hopefully you will be in Wellington to meet new migrants to the city.
If you have got any questions feel free to contact me.
See you soon

Thank you so much for your kind wishes.
Irishliz, I will definitely contact you upon arrival (don't think I have made enough posts yet for PMs) that would be huge to catch up when my family arrives.
Marco sounds great on the 7th, but being irish (and this is also a complete coincidence), that All Blacks happen to be playing Ireland in Wellington that night but would love to catch up before or after the game or at another date.
And Georgebulldog and cappuccino, I will ceratinly PM you upon arrival. GB, I expect you will be fairly occupied :) but hoepfully things will have settled down for you by the time my family arrives.
Thanks again for your kindness, it will mean the world for my wife to have someone to chat to when she arrives
