The English Language Centre is located in the Adelaide city centre, close to public transport, shopping and cultural centres. It has a population of about a million people who came from many countries to settle here. These people have all melded together to create a truly multi-cultural society where life is safe and the citizens are friendly and helpful. Adelaide was one of the very first cities in the world to be planned and laid out by its designer, Colonel Light. South Australia's mild, Mediterranean climate allows people the chance to lead an outdoor life most of the year.
Sport is very popular, especially water sports like swimming and boating.
The climate is ideal for grape-growing and there are lots of interesting wineries in the Barossa Valley and in the Southern Vales. The Riverland on the River Murray is famous for its fruit like oranges, pears, peaches, apples and cherries. Adelaide is supposed to have more restaurants to the square kilometre than any other capital in Australia. You can sample the fine foods of many nationalities. Adelaide is fortunate in having one of the best training colleges for chefs in the Southern Hemisphere.
