Horsham Rural City Council has officially welcomed our newest Australian citizens to the community.
Six people from seven different countries were formally granted Australian Citizenship at the Civic Centre on Tuesday.
Countries of origin included The Philippines, India and the United Kingdom.
Council officiates the ceremonies on behalf of the Australian Government and all new citizens receive a native plant as a gift from Council to mark the special occasion.
“I always look forward to these events on our civic calendar and getting to meet our municipality’s newest Australian citizens and their families,” Mayor Robyn Gulline said.
“We are delighted that they have chosen to make their permanent homes in our region – it is truly a great place to live.
“We are pleased to continue to deliver these important and special ceremonies using technology,” she said.
