Yes we finally have a location for Melbourne CHESS at Blackburn North Baptist Church. See the Conferences page for details and Registration forms for all seminars

Stock has arrived from the USA including our long-awaited Drawing Textbook, plus Shortcut Maths and fresh supplies of the renowned Power-Glide Language courses.

The Drawing Textbook back orders are now being shipped out to our patient customers, who have been rewarded by a substantial price reduction due to the improvement in the exchange rate.

Power-Glide is now a part of the Alpha Omega range and we have begun taking them in newer "shrink-wrap" packaging. This, again with exchange rate movements, represents a substantial saving on last year's series which were in boxed packages.

To celebrate this major saving we are reducing the prices on current Power-Glide boxed sets as well as the new Power-Glide. Check out our Foreign Language page for the full story.

Intensive Phonics In Australia dramatically revised and reprinted! We are now calling it "Early Phonics" and it carries a new price of $5.50 ($5).

The previous edition had been designed as a companion to the "Spalding" method of phonics, but the new edition focuses on introducing phonics to preschoolers and the prereading skills. It is designed to precede the use of a program such as LEM Phonics. It has been written in a question-and-answer format and hopefully will answer the various questions parents have about preparing their children for the wonderful world of reading.

Price reductions again in Saxon

The KEPL Early Education Paper has been revised with a new price of $4.40 ($A4.00). The new edition is only available in print so far, but the earlier edition remains available for download.

We have released our first KEPL News for 2004.

Prices reduced - miracles still happen! Check Saxon and various others.

Switched-On Schoolhouse Version 2 formally released in Australia. Version 1 remains available for a limited time at slightly reduced prices. Version 2 requires systems with greater capacity; we will therefore continue to support version 1 for customers who prefer it. Please specify versions when ordering.

New release! Saxon Placement Tests - Australian version. Adapted for the different Maths teaching approaches used in Australia. Totally redrafted with new instructions.

Slightly modified Order Form - now with postage charges chart on the second page.

We appreciate your patience through this difficult time for us as we waited and waited for the shipment to arrive.

We truly are blessed to have so many gracious customers, but we hope that we have learned from this and that we don't have to put you through that kind of delay again in the future. 11 Apr 2003
