For your kid? Or for you?
If you're ok sharing it with us, it would help to know what city/area they're moving from and moving to, or even if it's city vs suburbs vs rural. Even something as simple as "footy" could mean three different types of football depending on what state they're in (and none of them are gridiron).
If you're not from somewhere with many spiders, might be good for your champ to quickly learn the most common ones here and whether to run from them or keep them around to eat annoying flies. Plenty are harmless to humans.
And if you're not from somewhere with ocean beaches, learn basics (how to stay afloat, riptides, basic beach safety like swimming between flags) and sun safety ("slip, slop, slap").
great info! dangerous critters were my first thought
goin to wallengong? hes coming from the east coast, right on the coast.. but such an [inside] nerd. id be surprised if hes touched the ocean more than a few times despite living a few blocks from it.
I went to Wollongong once. Had lunch at a place called An Chut Chut. Incredible food.
Sorry I can't tell you more, other than it's a very pretty area. Beaches, hiking, train to Sydney if needed.
