hi all,
just a short note to inform you that having arrived in NZ june 4th,i have thru hard work and cold calling secured a job,and applied for AND GOT,AS OF TODAY ONE GORGEOUS LOOKING WORK PERMIT, from our freinds at NZIS.
i have kept a low profile as i didn't want to tempt fate,you all know what i mean!
we will be moving up to the bay of islands in 2 weeks time to start work,can you believe it,i keep having to pinch my self,not only are we here,but what a fab place to work and live,
we have been to see the local school,and upon the head checking my w/permit and filling out the enrollment forms our daughter of 6 can start straight away,and she is ready for it by now,we took her out of school in the uk about a week before we left,[june 2nd]
our other little girl of 3 will be starting kindy soon aswell.
so to all of you out there,with the right determination,a good wife for support,and a lot of bottle, go for it,
it isn't easy,no one will say it is, its bloody hard work,and there will be stumbling blocks.
but the rewards are out of this world.
take care all,and if i can offer any help from our experiences than i gladly shall.  |
