Take a cheap unlocked phone and buy a local simcard. Using the correct code will mean a 10 minute call to mum will only cost about $1.50 and texts about 6 cents, so much cheaper than using your Aussie phone.
Give the phone to the person that sells the simcards and they will set it up. Then text everyone at home your number.
