Internet speeds can be poor in the newer estates due to the developers installing pair gain lines to an MDF at the entrance to the estate...ADSL2 but with contention if that helps and Telstra is the 'backbone' so you need to be with Telstra or one of their re-sellers, which in fact can give you more issues. Aircraft noise is not an issue but depending on the stillness and flight paths, you can hear them from time to time. Flooding is not an issue but BCC plans should be checked before buying as standard practice. The Exclusive Brethren love Wakerley as it is close to their private school and halls, we have neighbours who are practising Brethren and they are great neighbours...although when they do regular home gatherings the street fills up with cars quickly... Clean area with good parks and close to shops, amenities, bayside, good schools, and not too many Asians or Indians or muslims (yet) so it is a good white middle class suburb.

Hi, we are looking in moving to the Western suburbs and I came across Wakerley. I have two young boys (aged 9 and 12) can anyone list me the great schools (public and private) close or near in the area so I can enquire regarding availability. We are moving from Europe. Thanks in advance.

Hi elenik3 - Wakerley is in the bayside area (so south and east of Brisbane, not in western subs). There are multiple private schooling options in the area for high school (Moreton Bay Boys College which is boys only, Ormiston College, Redlands College, Sheldon College are co-ed). These are the ones I can list off the top of my head, all within a short drive of Wakerley. Perhaps google those to get a feel and arrange for tours, and enquire as to enrolment process. The local public primary school for Wakerley is Gumdale State School, which has an excellent reputation and is highly south after, an option for your 9 year old. Good luck with your move.
