Hi Everyone I really hope you guys can give me some information about emigrating to Edmonton from Ireland.

My partner has been offered a job in the Northern territory of Edmonton. His schedule is 10 days on 4 days off... This would mean that myself and my two children aged 5 and 1 year would need to set up somewhere not too far from there but somewhere that is family friendly. Is there a large expat community there and what is proceedures for enrolling in schools etc.
As you can imagine i am really quite nervous about this move but also could feel maybe some great opportunities may arise from it.

Any information at all anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated 

Cheers :shy

Food for thought

Good evening Emma, Edmonton is a destination I am looking to relocate too. How far down the relocation process are you?

Early stages for me with many things in the UK to tie up.

Kind regards Steve :)
