President of Poland Visits Australia

This year Poles around the world are celebrating 100 years of Poland's Independence, which was gained on 11th November, 1918. To celebrate this special event, Poles in Australia were honored by the visit by the President of the Republic of Poland, Mr Andrzej Duda.

President Duda also met with the Australian Prime Minister. Mr Malcolm Turnbull and his Cabinet. He also met with Mr Bill Shorten and our local Member for Corio and Shadow Defence Spokesperson, Mr Richard Marles.

Poles in Geelong were elated when they learned that Mr Marles spoke to President Duda about Australia's Poles. We were all very moved when Mr Marles told the President that, "The proud Geelong Polish Community at the White Eagle House has been in the middle of that Australian Story".
