Testimonials
“I come from Sudan and I have been in Australia for 13 years. I live in Craigieburn. At home I speak Nuba Moro and little English. I am married and I have 8 children. I study English on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesdays and I really enjoy learning English with my classmates.”
“Being an educator myself I was very particular in the care I was looking for. After visiting many centres I’ve decided to enroll my daughter here because from the moment we walked in we could feel the warmth Cathy and her team offer to the children. Cathy goes above and beyond to meet the needs of parents and children and has imbedded a loving and warm culture throughout the service.”
“I started coming to this centre in 2015. When I came in, it was welcoming. The teachers and other students were good. The other staff are also good. I think I am improving. In class everyone is friendly, helpful and we enjoy. It is a good cultural mix. I am happy and want to continue learning.”
