Kilburn Community Garden
The Kilburn Community Garden was recently been used
as a venue for a lunch prepared by students studying social
and cultural diversity.
The TAFE program is mainly for disadvantaged or vulnerable
youth – aged 16-25 – and is run in partnership with the
Oz Harvest, food rescue organisation.
It’s the first time the certificate 2 course has been run in
Adelaide – and the program coordinator Ruth Byham said
their recent lunch was a huge success.
The students sourced food from Oz Harvest, and the Kilburn
Community Garden and used it to prepare a menu with a
distinctly Middle Eastern flavour.
“Around 20 people from the local community – from a range
of cultural backgrounds were invited to the lunch – and it
went really well,” she said.
The aim of the lunch was to give the students practice in
preparing food and serving customers.
The course runs for 18 weeks.
National Youth Week
National Youth Week, which is the largest celebration of
young people, 12-25 years, in Australia, this year took place
from 8-17 April.
On Wednesday 13 April Council held its 9th Annual Youth
Expo at Titanium Security Arena, in collaboration with the
cities of Charles Sturt and West Torrens and the Multicultural
Community Council of SA.
The free event was extremely well attended and well received
with young people given the opportunity to engage with
approximately 40 stall holders from a variety of agencies and
organisations and entertainment.
Approximately 900 people attended the event, including
services providers, school staff and young people.
The City of Port Adelaide Enfield and the
Museums in the Port, are running a Vintage

more. The Classic Owners Motorcycle Club have
