On Tuesday 26th of January we celebrate Australia Day. We celebrate everything that's great about Australia and being Australian.There are many events planned in every major town. An important part of each event is the Citizenship ceremony where new citizens pledge their loyalty to the country. You can see more information on this at the Citizenship tab on this blog.
At Distance Learning we think it's great that Australia is a multicultural country and we value the contribution of migrants now and through Australia's history. Here are some thoughts from staff members on the question: What's great about Australia and being Australian?
"For me Australian citizenship
allows me to participate in elections. So I have rights and I feel like a full member of the country. Also I like the people, climate and the multiculturalism here. It's hard to say..it means I have made the right choice for my family and I."
"I love Australia because of the fresh air, beautiful sunshine and delicious international food. I also love the friendly Australian people and the fair environment where everyone is equal and well respected."
You can find out what's on in your area from your local newspaper or by going to the website Australia Day Events. For more information and videos on Australia Day go to the website ABC TV.
So the discussion question for this week is:
What do you think is great about Australia?
