The Welcome Dinner Project

RNIS was invited by the City of Melbourne to take part in this event

The Welcome Dinner Project has just launched with a potluck dinner last Saturday. Here many people gathered and enjoyed a meal.

The Project was founded by Joining the Dots and Beyond Welcome groups, groups which aim to assist new International students to find their feet. Beyond Welcome is about home cooked meals in Aussie homes and it started in Sydney a few years back.

Joining the Dots are looking at doing events in November until the middle of next year where they are going to be visiting Melbourne workplaces.

There were a lot of home cooked and some store bought dishes. There were a few vegetarian ones and everyone had to explain what their dish is and what ingredients are in it. In a way that is good as some people can't eat certain things

Then we all met with different people and it was good meeting with everyone from different countries who are all students.

Many thanks to City of Melbourne for the invite.
