Driving lesson times are currently subject to the availability of the driving educator, Courtenay.
You can expect availability Monday, Tuesday, Thursday & Friday, 9 am – 5 pm.

What areas do you cover?

Do you offer automatic and manual?

Currently, there is only an automatic vehicle available.

Do I need to bring my logbook/MyLearners app? (Learner Drivers ONLY)

It is a government requirement that Victorian learner drivers log 120 hours of driving lessons in their logbook and/or MyLearners app. For every practical driving lesson, you will need to bring your logbook and/or MyLearners app to have your hours recorded.
