Refugee Holiday Program: Term 1 Holidays


The refugee holiday program was the first major social justice activity for the year. The day involved spending time with children aged from 6-16, who have recently immigrated to Australia, and are a part of the Diversitat program run in Geelong. Diversitat provides support and assistance to families who have recently arrived in Australia.

On the day, we played board games, did dancing and drama, cooking and played basketball and soccer with these kids, and learnt about their different journeys to arrive in Geelong. The day was excellent and I would encourage anyone thinking about doing the program to sign up for the next school holidays. Many thanks to all students and teachers who gave up their time to support this program! It was great to see so many students involved.
