Today we came together to celebrate our end of Term Two Mass. It was a lovely way to end our Term.
Refugee Week
Refugee Week in Australia is always held from Sunday to Saturday of the week which includes 20 June (World Refugee Day). For 2023, it began on Sunday the 18th of June and will conclude on Saturday 24th June.
The aims of Refugee Week are:
to educate the Australian public about who refugees are and why they have come to Australia;
to help people understand the many challenges refugees face coming to Australia;
to celebrate the contribution refugees make to our community;
to focus on how the community can provide a safe and welcoming environment for refugees;
for community groups and individuals to do something positive for refugees, asylum seekers and displaced people, within Australia but also around the world; and
for service providers to reflect on whether they are providing the best possible services to refugees.
