There are lots of different reasons why a person might move to a new country.
They might move for an awesome opportunity to do something cool in a new place. They might move to a new country to experience a new culture.
If they live in a country which is unsafe, they might be a refugee and start a new life in a new country which is safer. That’s an important reason to move to a new country.
Today’s episode celebrates friends from around the world who have moved to Australia and now call Australia home.
 
About the book:
War ends, yet its dark shadow remains, a family is forced to flee their home. As they journey through hunger, long cold nights and homelessness, a heart locket whispers words of hope. And a country that's faraway calls for those that are no longer wanted. It offers new beginnings and a precious place, once more to call home. 
 
This is the perfect story time resource for initiating conversations about refugees and multiculturalism in our country. Lots of people move to Australia every day for lots of different reasons. It’s important that we make them feel welcome and part of our big Australian family.
