Family support network
The University recognises that partners or other family members who accompany international students may need help and advice in settling into life in Adelaide and Australia. During teaching periods, staff from the Learning and Teaching Unit offer assistance and advice in areas such as:
- Exploring cultural differences and similarities
- Finding your way in the city of Adelaide
- Organising a 'family life'
- Family life in a new country
- Employment opportunities

For Families and Children
One of the joys of parenting is playing in a playground with your children.

playgrounds and parks, which will provide directions in the suburbs for you
and the kids to enjoy.
