Moving from Cape Town to Sunshine Coast/ Brisbane. Where to live??

Hi there, We are hoping to move to the Sunshine Coast/ Brisbane from Cape Town. I am a teacher, my husband a financial relationship manager; and we have 4 daughters ages 2 - 7. We will both be looking for work. We are a surfing family - my hubby shapes boards, and looking to live near the beach but with in a close proximity of good schools. Starting all over again is not for sussies! Any advice where to start looking to stay? Thanks!!
