We have a programme of English and Activities, just for the more mature student over 40 years. We run four programmes a year, each four weeks long. The first is in January / February, the second in March / April, the third in September / October and the fourth in November / December. Students can also study extra weeks of General English before and after their 40+ course.

The programme has English lessons every morning, 9am – 12 noon. The students join in classes with other international students from the General English programme.  In the afternoons they take part in an Activity Programme for 3 afternoons, where the activities are sightseeing, wine tasting, bush walking, beach visits, cultural events, farm visits, garden visits etc.  There is free time for the other 2 afternoons.  (Additional excursions on these free time afternoons will cost extra.)
