International Students Melbourne Museum excursion

On Wednesday 30 October the  International students went to the Melbourne Museum for their final day of the Experience Victoria program. 

They got  the opportunity to listen to three amazing speakers and learn about what multiculturalism is and some of its misconceptions. Listening to Alan Harris, or Big Al, was by far the best. He is an Aboriginal Elder and some students did not know what that meant so he explained it very well. He also spoke about his personal experience of being taken from his mum and living in a mission. But his message is that he has a lot of hope and love for this country.
