Yumaro Learning Centre
Yumaro’s training programs are specially developed and delivered for people with a disability. Our programs instil tremendous personal pride in participants, they build independence, skills, and social connections and are great fun!
Apart from the ‘reading & writing’, ‘travel training’ course we recommend people plan to do one course at a time which would allow you to complete up to two courses in a year.
