FEMALE STUDENT: I like multiculturalism. Every single one of my friends is a different culture, all different cultures.

STUDENT: In 9B I have learnt a lot and I think the teachers teach very well. Throughout the experience all from different cultures all are not racist and they all respect each other’s beliefs. We are all friendly and everyone works hard and we have no trouble. I am happy to go through such an experience. It has been the best.
STUDENT: I like this class because it is a multicultural class and nobody fights with each other.
STUDENT: I like this class because it has respect and all the people in this class are smart and helpful to each other.
STUDENT: I like 9B we are a class that gets along with one another and we don’t pick on each other.

FEMALE STUDENT: I reckon that Australian society respects who you are, what your background is, what you believe in, your culture, because I respect Australians, everything. I am an Australian, I’m born here. My background is Lebanese.
Student Snapshot 4
FEMALE STUDENT: There’s only like a handful that don’t really accept us Lebanese, or Italians, or whatever we may be, and the rest they’re just, I reckon they’re fine, they smile, they say excuse me, you know they accept you which is nice to see.

FEMALE STUDENT: I think Australians are very understanding of other people’s backgrounds and their cultures and that’s a good thing for the simple fact that everybody in Australia is a foreigner of some sort and none of us owns this country. We’ve all got to live together and respect each other which I find a very good thing.
