    Thanks hun... I'm feeling a little better now.

    I grew up in the Sutherland Shire. Back when I was a teenager, Jannali was one of the not so great areas. Now days though many of the Dept Housing places have been sold off and it has become a much nicer area to live. My sister currently lives there and 2 of my nephews go to school at Jannali East school and they love it there. My sisters rent is through the roof though for the small house she is in but she doesn't want to move as they love the location and the school is amazing. They are within walking distance of everything and Jannali does have a small community type feel about it as well as being family friendly.
    The biggest pitfall would be the rentals. Most 3 bedroom houses are in the $500+ p/w range.

    Thanks so much for the info Lisa. This is the second time I have heard good things about that school, so i think we would definitely want to be in that catchment area.
    We are undecided as to whether we would rent for a while first to see how we like it or just jump straight in and buy- especially because apparantley they are still selling off some of the housing commisssion houses and this is a good way to get your foot in the door and buy a bit of a project.
    Can i ask, do you know anything about the High Schools- Public and Private?
    Thanks

    Not sure about Jannali High School as we went to a different school. When me & my siblings were at school Jannali High was just forming from the boys & girls schools. Apparently its a great school these days but I don't personally know of anyone that has gone there.

    There are some private schools around but none that I know if in Jannali. Sutherland has St Patricks school & high school and that isn't too far from Jannali.
