G’day, and welcome to Whittlesea

The multicultural face of the city of Whittlesea was on show as 500 people from 48 nations were welcomed at the Australian Citizenship Day ceremony in South Morang – the largest in the country – last week.

Among the new citizens were, pictured from left, Sandeep Kaur, with one-month-old baby Jasmandeep, her brother-in-law Sukhjinder Singh, his wife Maninder Pal Kaur and daughter Harmandeep, 4. They were proud and excited to become Australian citizens.

Originally from India, Mr Singh said his family came seeking a better life, and they were enjoying living in Whittlesea.
