A big thank you to Cambridge University Press, who have—again—
generously donated a wonderful selection of books.
New resources are hard to come by and we appreciate the chance to
offer tutors access to these most welcome additions to the Home Tutor
Scheme library.
Road Ready courses for people from non-English speaking
backgrounds are conducted at the Phillip and Watson Road Ready
Centres in alternate months. A Chinese interpreter is on site and
attendees from other cultural backgrounds are able to
bring a family member or friend to act as an interpreter for
them. Ring the Phillip Road Ready Centre on 6282 8990 or
Watson on 6162 5152 for more information. Cost is $155
which includes 4 attempts at the test. The Road Ready
Centre will organise an official interpreter to assist with the
test if needed.
