    E-NEWSLETTER 26 –January 2014 26 CONSULATE OF MALTA IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA NEWSLETTER JANUARY 2014 FRANK L SCICLUNA - LINKING MALTA AND AUSTRALIA EMAIL: [email protected] Website: www.ozmalta.page4.me On Australia Day, 26 January, we come together as a nation to celebrate what's great about Australia and being Australian. It's the day to reflect on what we have achieved and what we can be proud of in our great nation. It's the day for us to re-commit to making Australia an even better place for the future. Australia Day, 26 January, is the anniversary of the arrival of the First Fleet of 11 convict ships from Great Britain, and the raising of the Union Jack at Sydney Cove by its commander Captain Arthur Phillip, in 1788. Though 26 January marks this specific event, today Australia Day celebrations reflect contemporary Australia: our diverse society and landscape, our remarkable achievements and our bright future. It also is an opportunity to reflect on our nation's history, and to consider how we can make Australia an even better place in future. On Australia Day, over half of the nation’s population of 21 million attend either an organised community event, or get together with family and friends with the intention of celebrating our national day. Many more spend the public holiday relaxing with family and friends. Yet Australia Day is much more than barbeques and fireworks. It is more than another public holiday. It is more than the pride and excitement of new citizens who call themselves Australian for the first time on 26 January after being conferred citizenship.

Over the years, the role of the Society has evolved to meet the changing nature of the Commonwealth and the Mrs Libby Ellis OAM needs of its Supporters.

Commonwealth It is non-partisan, is independent of governments and is supported solely by public Society S.A. Branch generosity. Each year the Commonwealth Day Observance is based around an annual Commonwealth theme.

Learning about ANZAC Day helps young children to understand the life and times of Australia and its people. The ceremony and traditions are such an integral part of our culture that it gives us an opportunity to talk to children about the importance of ANZAC Day. 2 3 Mm,,,,,,MALTESE E-NEWSLETTER 370 April 2021 We are writing to let you know that, due to the current pandemic, we will unfortunately not be able to host our annual ANZAC Day commemoration on 25 April this year. Instead, we will hold a short, private wreath-laying ceremony which we will record and post on social media at @AusHCMalta and @NZinMalta later that day. We invite you to view it when convenient. Although we cannot commemorate the occasion together in Malta this year, we will nonetheless mark it solemnly and meaningfully. Ceremonies to mark the day have been held in Australia, New Zealand, Malta and in many other countries since 1916, initially to remember the first landing of the Australia and New Zealand Army Corps (the ANZACs) on the Gallipoli Peninsula in Turkey. Over the years, our commemoration has come to encompass all men and women from both our countries who have served in wars, conflicts and peace-keeping operations in many capacities.

  • The Emerging Diaspora: Engaging Maltese-Australian Youth Identity in Australia
    Shannon Said & Charmaine Cassar Australia The emerging Diaspora: engaging Maltese-Australian youth identity in Australia The data presented in this paper has been obtained from a MAYC online survey, which sought to gauge Maltese-Australians’ awareness in the following three areas: 1. The reciprocal benefits of dual citizenship to Maltese-Australians; 2. Establishing networks and promoting study and exchange programs between Australian and Maltese educational institutions, and highlighting the opportunity of Australian-Maltese high school students to study the Maltese language in Australian schools; 3. The promotion of Maltese culture in Australia, including creative arts and sports festivals featuring Maltese and Maltese-Australian artists, and promoting tourism of Malta in Australia. This survey was open for a period of 12 days in January 2015. A total of 149 Maltese living in Australia have shared their perspectives, discussed below. MAYC recognises the need for organisations in Malta, such as L-Aġenzija Żagħżagħ and L-Universitá ta’ Malta, to assist Maltese-Australian organisations reaching these goals in the form of projects that encourage Maltese cultural identity in Australia. It is also imperative that Maltese-Australian youth actively take part in such initiatives. Each point raised above will be discussed in light of these two considerations: the need to create projects that promote each area, and at the same time, build relationships with Maltese-Australians, in particular the younger generation, so that CMLA 2015 – Shannon Said (Australia) & Charmaine Cassar (Australia): The emerging Diaspora: engaging Maltese-Australian youth identity in Australia they are able to participate in the life of the Maltese-Australian community through these projects.

    MALTESE E-NEWSLETTER 232 August 2018 1 MALTESE E-NEWSLETTER 232 August 2018 MDINA – THE MEDIEVAL AND MYSTERIOUS CITY Mdina is a fortified city, situated on the highest hill in Malta, in the northern region. Back in the day, until the medieval times, it was in fact Malta’s capital. The city still remains within the city walls and have a population of only approximately 300 people. The history of Mdina can be traced back more than 4000 years. According to tradition the Apostle St Paul is said to have lived here after being shipwrecked on the Islands back in 60 AD. Its medieval name – The Noble City – is a very apt description of Mdina, as is the more common name Mdina is now known by – The Silent City. We used the hop on hop off bus to get to Mdina from St Julian’s. It probably isn’t the quickest way of getting there but it did give us the opportunity to sit on the top deck of the bus and take in the Maltese countryside. As we arrived so did another half a dozen or so other buses – both sightseeing ones and public ones. This in turn created the impression that it was going to be heaving with people once inside the city walls, as people edged towards the city gates, which were featured in Game of Thrones, eager to see what was waiting on the other side. The chatter once inside subsided as people were obviously taken aback by the beautiful buildings they were greeted with – it truly is an open-air museum just waiting to be explored and is one of Europe’s leading examples of walled cities.
