Well, we have all but finished our new website. It’s been great fun getting it up and running. We will continue to tweak it now and then, adding bits here and there, changing photos and adding testimonials and so forth, so keep an eye out for changes and updates.

Selly, an IT student at UOW, who we have been very fortunate to have do some work experience for us, has done most of   the difficult, technical work in setting up the website as Pam and I are pretty clueless in that area! So a massive thanks to Selly! She’s almost inspired me to learn more about webpage development and design…almost…

ARET has also been busy preparing for the upcoming visit from Dokkyo University. This year more than 20 students are coming. They will arrive next Sunday, the 12th of February and all the host families are really looking forward to it. The group, who will stay for 4 weeks, will be studying English at UOW College and do some sightseeing around Sydney and the Illawarra. Some of the fun things they’re scheduled to do include going to the Blue Mountains and the organic farm in Berry, A Taste of Paradise.

We’ll keep you updated with pics and blog updates about the Dokkyo visit and any other ARET activities!
