"Coming home is like a holiday every day!"

We moved from Bondi last year and we're loving our new home. I work in Sydney and commute which takes me about 1&1/4 hrs each way. Considering it used to take me 40 minutes from Bondi that's not too bad, especially as we picked up a huge 4 bedroom house for less than we sold our 2 bedroom apartment for, plus we're up on the hill so we've got awesome ocean views! It's a total paradise for the family, with our choice of clean beaches and fantastic playgrounds. The new Bulli foragers market is well worth a look with live music, fresh/organic produce and just a really chill vibe- on every Sunday. There's plenty of local nightlife (although with two young kids what would we know) and the local restaurants are very good. Some weekends we head down to the Southern Highlands (45 min drive) or along the South Coast to places like Berry (1hr drive).

The area seems to be kicking off with a new Woolworths going in at the corner of Memorial Drive and Princes Hwy, plus the state government is preparing to extend Memorial Drive to connect it to Bulli pass which will make the area more accessible and an easier commute.

We are looking to move to this area. It looks and sounds perfect. We have a 6 year old son, do you know what the schools are like? Both primary and high school? Thanks!
