Told through the bright and unflinching eyes of Cat Thao, a girl born in a refugee camp, We Are Here is a memoir that begins in 1975 with her family's gripping exodus by foot out of post-war Vietnam - a dangerous journey, unimaginable to most, on which most perished. The escape of Cat Thao's family from persecution traverses the horrific jungles of Khmer Rouge Cambodia and into the crowded refugee camps of Thailand. From which, finally, the Nguyens were allowed to board a Qantas plane to a freedom they wanted desperately. But the stark, contrasting suburban landscapes of Western Sydney, Australia were not the unalloyed blessing they'd imagined. Against the backdrop of an immigrant experience, Cat Thao tells of her coming of age in Australia, haunted by lingering trauma but buoyed by instincts of hope, reinvention and survival. In a voice both candid and striking, Cat Thao details her struggles with growing up: from her bad skin and hairy legs, to Vietnamese mysticism and kinship, and bound throughout by familial loyalty and honour. With wit and poignancy, We Are Here explores an Australia of the 80s and 90s, and a family's tireless journey for peace through a young woman's absolute determination to find her place.

Nanda Gray, the daughter of a Catholic convert, is nine when she is sent to the Convent of Five Wounds.

Convent life is perfectly captured - the smell of beeswax and incense; the petty cruelties of the nuns; the eccentricities of Nanda's school friends. * Suitable for gas operatives who have already qualified to refresh and update their skills. * High-definition photographs and illustrations to assist with skills learning which reflect latest industry practices. * Logical structure that minimises repetition so learners have clear access to the key content of the qualification. * Progress checks for each learning outcome help learners to consolidate key information and plan revision when required. * Mathematical and ICT skills are carefully explained so learners fully understand the technical requirements of the course. * Problem-solving case studies put content into workplace context and prepare learners for real-life situations. * Practical skills are presented in clear step-by-step procedural photos that help learners visualise safe preparation and working skills. * Multiple choice knowledge checks at the end of chapters test what has just been learnt and prepare learners for assessment. * Language is professional and appropriate for level 3 learners preparing them for the workplace.
