Women's Studies Course, YWCA

That's right, the YWCA is not a boring organisation that runs knitting classes for aged Christians, You don't have to be old, nor do you even have to be a Christian — we are aware of the changing role of women in New Zealand society and we're hesitantly support the changes. That's why we're offering a Women's Studies course with topics ranging from physical health, mental health, women and the law, women in employment, and those unemployed, human and family relations.

Don't be a typical, apathetic New Zealander — come along for your own sake. It costs only $1 per session, creche and coffee provided every Monday between 10-12 noon. The speakers are not washed out by-gones either.

Phone 850-505 ext. 69/70 for enquiries.
