Intercultural Tas Group report Feb 2025
1. Intercultural Task Group multicultural Christmas event.
- There were about 200 people at the performances with the mayor in attendance and a few representing the different intercultural groups within Monash.
- The bulk of the $5,000 grant from Monash went towards the performance fee of the 4 groups with the First Peoples Didgeridoo costing $1,900.
- The lunch was well attended with over 120 people. The Indonesian cuisine was well received. There was more than enough to go round.
- The display in Room 1 was there from 7th to 25th December. We were privileged to have Aunty Norma from the First Peoples lending us her display of possum coat and the history of weaving.
- Overall it was a well received event.
2. Christmas lunch
3. Lunar new year lunch.
- Vida reports: We had a good time of fellowship and learning from each other about our traditional food and routines.
I believe the highlight was the loh hei (see picture).
