32 new Australian citizens have been welcomed in an official citizenship ceremony conducted by the Whitsunday Regional Council, at a special ceremony in Bowen earlier this week.
The 32 individuals, from 13 different countries were invited to the ceremony, held at Bowen’s Flagstaff Hill Function and Convention Centre on Tuesday, February 13.
“We meet today to acknowledge the individuals who are officially being Australian,” explained Deputy Mayor Gary Simpson.
“Australians have a unique national identity. Central to this identity is our willingness to have a go and our willingness to give others a fair go,” he said.
“We make the most of the opportunities present to us, and we recognise the importance of working hard and giving back to our community.
“Welcome to Australia!”
