Hi Janice,

Here's a couple of links:

This site will tell you what the weather is like in each state, you can even get more localised by postcode:
Australia & World Weather Forecast, BoM Radar, Rainfall Map & Report

This site is an overall view of weather in Australia:
Australian weather and the seasons - Australia's Culture Portal

Why, thank you!

Jobs in teaching are in demand here in Victoria. Can't speak for the other states.

Found this link, not sure whether it will help though. It's the assessment body that you would use for your skills assessment: Skills Assessment

Not knowing what level of teaching you do, I looked up the ASCO definitions and found this:

1220.0 - Australian Standard Classification of Occupations (ASCO) Second Edition, 1997

You'll have to make a decision on which state you choose to live in and which visa you apply for.

There's a lot to think about and consider!

Dolly

hey
Thanks a lot.
I will go thru the links you sent and get back to you on what i found useful.
Remain blessed.

I just finished watching a two minute inspirational movie on the defining moments in our lives.

It is truly moving, stirring words and breathtaking images. I want to share it with you as I think you will really enjoy it as well.

Here is the link: [link removed: no relevance to thread]



Warmly,

Gloriana

Default things to do

I have been through you very comprehensive list of things to do before you leave - and I thought of something you don't mention:

If you have a car - and paid your tax (!) don't forget to
Claim back road tax

Thanks for putting the lists together
