English as a second language
If you are learning English or new to Australia, you might like to join one of our English as a second language programs at the library. You will also find a great collection of bi-lingual books for children, adult readers and International English Language Testing (IELTS) study guides.
Learning English Through Story Time
We run a series of English as a second language workshops during school terms for children aged 2 to 4 years and their parents, grandparents and guardians. You and your family could improve your English skills through songs, rhymes and interactive activities.
