Beehive Industries World Cultural Day on June 23 was a great success, attended by around 80 Beehivers, many who celebrated by wearing the traditional dress of their native countries including India, Russia, Indonesia, Armenia and Australia. Earlier in the day our talented Ambassador Kumar Pereira hosted our latest Cooking For Seniors Program by cooking a delicious Fried Cauliflower Rice dish, along with a team of enthusiastic Beehivers who all produced very tasty meals which were enjoyed by all. After our Cultural Day Lunch, a talent show brought out some wonderful singing and dancing and some speeches which were much appreciated by the audience. As usual Ann did a fantastic job decorating the Beehive with flags that celebrated the diversity of our community, and of course making sure the whole day ran smoothly from start to finish!

The Hon Julie Bishop MP, met with some of our Beehivers from the Indian community in Blacktown on Wednesday 1 June. The lunch was organised to give local residents the opportunity to hear the Minister speak, and discuss issues of interest with her in person. The narrowly Labor-held electorate of Greenway is one of the most culturally diverse areas in Australia, and the Foreign Minister chatted with migrants from Syria, Afghanistan, Libya, Kenya and Sri Lanka during a short walk down Main Street after the lunch. |
