Ciao! Did you know that after English, Italian is the most widely spoken language in Australia? Named as one of the great Romance languages in the world, Italian forms part of everyday life, particularly through our food.

From the Tower of Pisa to ordering pizza, the menu is just as rich as its culture and language. This course aims to give you a basic knowledge of the Italian language through its food, enabling you to travel comfortably through the country or simply have a better understanding of what’s in your pantry.
