Dear Jeanette,
ReplyDeletethanks for this excellent blog posting and your photograph. the building is an unusual and interesting mixture of the old and the new. Some of our VET schools are like this, particularly the older ones in the major cities.
I have been to Uddevalla and I know what a pretty place it is.
the school certainly teaches a wide variety of courses and in this way it is a lot like our VET schools and colleges.
In Australia we have apprenticeships and they sound very much like the ones you have in your school.
How many students attend your school?
you have been to Uddevalla? How wonderful :) 2008 i went to Australia for 3 months. Spendt most of my time in Sydney. I always found the Ozzies to be a friendly bunch of people :)
