NUGAS South Australia Ball Coincides With Ambition To Implement Modern Greek In Education

Hundreds of Greek Australians attended the NUGAS South Australia Ball on Saturday

17th

April. With over 200 attendees, the NUGAS SA Ball hosted many local and interstate

students from many Greek University societies from the majority of Australian States.

These included (MHSS, MuNGA, RUSH, VUGS, DUGS, HELSOC, USAHA, AGUA, FUGA,

HUGS, QUTHSand LUGS)

The attendees wined, dined and danced the night away in a formally decorated ballroom

designed around a Greek theme. An inspiring opening speech was delivered by NUGAS

National President, Harry Mavrolefteros which enforced the importance of the Greek Youth

Community. Music provided by DJ KOSTA KAY set the scene for what Georgina Baveas described

as, “a rare occasion where one

can experience a night filled with Greek mezethes, Greek dancing and Greek people.”

As NUGAS experiences growth throughout Australia, the attention of the various committees

has shifted its focus to lobbying for Modern Greek to be part of the Australian Curriculum.

Over 265 individual petitions were signed over the course of the weekend which will be sent

in batches to The Hon Julia Gillard MP.Treasurer of the NUGAS National Committee,

Michael Christodoulou has been driving this initiative.

"We made some really good steps in the right direction with Greek community groups,

local and state governments. By emphasizing the importance of Modern Greek in the

National Curriculumand by communicating theimportance to the wider community, it

seems we're in the holding pattern and a waiting game is on. I'm calling for some

definitive action right now from Ms Julia Gillard."
