Hi again JohnnyL! , we have put in an application for a house in Palmerston, there are a few out there to suit small familes but with 4 kids we need a big house which are few and far between , at the moment there is one available in Rosebery, this is a surburb id recommend if you have small kids , the reason being that the schools are all catchment areas,and Rosebery has a fantastic brand new primary school and they will only take kids from Rosebery , Bellamack and one other place beginning with a z, i cant remember it. The plots are smaller , they dont all have pools and the houses are more or less brand new..... we are looking at a place called Durack, its at the top end of Palmerston nearer the town, there is also a lovely house there at the moment with a small pool , the back overlooks a park...3 Don ct , Durack , i think the address is..... Palmerston apparently used to be known as Palmerslum but it is by far not like that now.... it has about 30,000 ppl and is growing fast but facilites are growing with it. There is a new water park being built, a 50mtr olympic size swimming pool, motor x track , soccer, rugby league and union, etc etc! You know what , we should just meet up and we can fill you in on all !!!!
