Is the combined income after tax or not ?? Tax rates are high on that amount of money but you can claim some back each financial year.  As an example I earn over $200,000 a year and pay 42% tax as a single person.

You will have to pay school fees. Rents are high in Perth because of the mining boom here.

For cost of living www.numbeo.com 

If you accept the offer you need to find a school which will take all your kids together. Schools work on a zoning system so you cannot always get kids into a school outside your zone.
Private schools are prohibitively expensive.
