Australasian College of Natural Therapies:
Sydney is one of the most beautiful cities in the world, centred around the world’s most celebrated harbour. There are hundreds of things to see and do in Sydney when not studying. ACNT is eight minutes by train from the airport, five minutes by train from the Harbour Bridge, Opera House, Circular Quay, The Rocks, Darling Harbour and three minutes from the Queen Victoria Building, and the rest of Sydney’s outstanding shopping district. ACNT is also walking distance from the largest Chinatown in the southern hemisphere, and is two minutes walk from Central Station with a direct train service to the airport plus train and coach services to most parts of the country.
Australia’s beaches and wildlife are well known around the world, and increasingly we are becoming better known for our excellent food, fine wines, our sporting prowess, science and technology leadership and world-class education system. Add this to our relaxed, outdoor lifestyle and agreeable weather and you’ll very quickly understand why Sydney is clearly one of the top cities in the world for students.
