Who We Are
Glyde-In Community Learning Centre, 42 Glyde Street, East Fremantle, offers courses, talks and activities that we hope will enrich your enjoyment and knowledge, and foster a healthy community life.
We aim to be a source of learning that doesn't cost the earth, that doesn't need prior knowledge or qualifications, and doesn't ask for a huge commitment of your time. Our courses are non-competitive and informal. Tutors are from all walks of life, and we welcome more! The Centre is run by a volunteer Management Committee, and four part-time staff members. We generate much of our funding through membership and course fees, and are also supported greatly by the Town of East Fremantle, who provides our building and its maintenance, and very substantial funding.
Glyde-In gratefully acknowledges the support of staff and councillors of East Fremantle Council.
Note: Concession eligibility is for those holding an Age Pension Card, a DVA Card or a Health Care Card (not National Seniors' Health Care Card).

The Japanese kimono is elegance itself. A typical outfit has 12 or more separate pieces that are worn, matched and secured in prescribed ways, and putting them on is a unique form of exercise! Come and see what it takes. Sakaya will bring kimonos for you all to try, and then show you how to walk with grace in one. Youll also learn some exquisite hand movements using a traditional fan, and other aspects of Japanese society in this wonderful opportunity.

The apparently unending conflict between Palestinians and Israelis may seem an ancient dispute of a religious nature. However, it is also possible to see it as a territorial quarrel in which two nations try to gain control over a territory, each believing itself to be its legitimate occupier. The modern conflict can be understood as a political issue whose protagonists can be identified and their reasons uncovered. We will attempt to make sense of this clash between two nations both of which, it is easily forgotten, descend from Abraham.
