Media response - Australia Day 2025

Published on 10 January 2025

Approach from Herald Sun

We're running a story about Australia Day celebrations organised/supported by Victorian councils.

Are you able to confirm if the council is involved in or funding any Australia Day activities this year and what they are?

Response

Monash Council will host a citizenship ceremony on January 26. These are wonderful events that welcome people into the Monash and Australian community, many of whom request to have their ceremony specifically on this date. The ceremony will be open to participants and their family or friends to attend.
