Refugee Week at Cobblebank Campus

Last week was Refugee Week, an important annual event that raises awareness about the refugee experience and celebrates the contributions of refugees to communities, both in Australia and globally.

It's a time to educate the public about the challenges refugees face and how they can contribute to creating a welcoming environment for those seeking refuge.

At Cobblebank Campus we ran a discussion session on what we could do to support refugees in our community and wrote letters to our local MP to share our ideas.

We also ran a food class during which students made banana spring rolls, an Asian delicacy. Students found it really interesting to hear stories of real people and show empathy and commitment to supporting refugees.
