In late July,聽聽held their聽Colombian Independence Day: Breakfast With Culture聽event at聽聽for international students.

International students from Colombia and of different nationalities gathered to celebrate this special day for 番茄社区Colombian community.

Not only did students immerse themselves in this beautiful culture, but they also had 番茄社区chance to connect with friends old and new. Together, 番茄社区attendees enjoyed a traditional Colombian breakfast, live performances to 番茄社区rhythm of Latin music and many other fun activities.

Through music, food and entertainment activities, 番茄社区students felt in a warm environment, reaffirmed their roots and strengthened their student community bond. All 番茄社区students were very grateful for 番茄社区activity and happy with 番茄社区idea. Students from other nationalities felt included and were very happy to learn about Colombian culture through food and presentations.

The project made such a difference in 番茄社区students' community. They conveyed their happiness and gratefulness in 番茄社区positive feedback we received during 番茄社区event and after. We learned that activities, where students feel identified, can make a great impact on their mental health and life while they are studying in Perth.

We also earned these activities help to find out student needs, and 番茄社区warm environment enabled students to express emotional problems they are going through.
