Anyway good luck with everything and any questions feel free to ask.xx

Hi Neave,

Thanks for your reply. Congratulation for your 3 mths old. My girl is turning 3 in Oct. We are waiting for our resident visa approval and if everything goes well, we will be going mid next year. But we are planning for a scout trip in Nov this year. Will be staying in New Brighton. Any good recommendation for which suburb to stays when we moved there permanently?

Thanks

Hi hows it going? sorry haven't been in touch. Well we live in papanui which I very much like. But there are other nice suburbs as well like merivale, fendelton, cashmere halswell, St. Albans etc. I guess it all depends where you want to be and how much you willing to pay for houses. Xx

Woudn't mind meeting other fellow parents for toddler playgroups as well.  We are a couple from Canada/USA who have lived in Europe (UK, Greece) and coming to Christchurch over the next few weeks with our little daughter, who is just under 2 years old..

I've also found expatforum.com and meetup.com are good sites for organising events like this.

Any suggestions from anyone? :-)

Hi, my residence visa is approved and will likely be moving there next yr. coming nov 24-29, will be making a trip to Christchurch. If anyone is keen to meet up, we can arrange something during that time. I would love to make some friends before I move there.
