One Decade on - African Settlement on the Downs

What an exciting day for our third session. We began by downloading everyone's images and we are very grateful to have the use of the computers at TRAMS (Toowoomba Refugee and Migrant Service) because we have 12 to 15 community photographers at each session who each have lots of images to download. This week was particularly interesting because we started to talk about the images and why they were important to the theme of the project. There are so many rich and important traditions, many of which continue in Toowoomba. In other ways some things are changing. One of our photographers shared an image which showed her son learning to cook and while he appeared to be enjoying it, he may not have acquired this skill in his native Burundi.

Some of the project participants will have an opportunity to photograph the Toowoomba visit of the Primate of the Sudan His Grace, ECS Archbishop Daniel Deng Bul during the coming week.
