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! Glyde-In is committed to the inclusion and recognition of all members. The premises are wheelchair accessible. 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.

Tea can be a surprisingly helpful drink in early spring. As winter dormancy gives way to growth and blossoming in nature, so tea can assist our own rising energy and help regulate the bodys heat as we begin to warm up. Come and taste several teas recommended for the season by Simon, tea merchant and good-brew aficionado.
