The outpouring of support following the Christchurch shooting has restored hope in humanity, says Mariam Khodr of the Australian Islamic Centre.
She has organised a family day at the Newport centre to “continue strengthening our relationship with each other”.
“The purpose of the event is to promote unity and give parents and children an enjoyable day out these school holidays,” Ms Khodr said.
“There’ll be rides, food trucks, entertainment and a haka performance to commemorate the lives lost in the Christchurch terror attacks.”
The event will be on Sunday, April 7, from 11am-5pm at the Australian Islamic Centre, 23-27 Blenheim Road, Newport.
