Citizen can!

What could be more optimistic than a new citizenship ceremony?

A new home. A fresh start. New opportunities. For some- security. For others- a reunion with loved ones, or the chance just to be themselves. For all- the end of a long, long journey. A new life. A life defined by optimism.

Here on Australia Day by Glenelg beach, the new Australians are welcomed by the Mayor of Holdfast Bay, whilst on the beach traditional Aussie recreational activities are in full swing.
