<strong>Curtin</strong> <strong>English</strong> believes having fun and<br />

exploring Perth is just as important<br />

as learning and studying hard when<br />

in class. Our friendly social officer<br />

arranges exciting excursions that give<br />

students a chance to meet new friends,<br />

relax, and participate in social activities<br />

across <strong>Curtin</strong> and Perth.<br />

we encourage students to attend<br />

workshops held by the <strong>Curtin</strong> Careers<br />
