The day’s activities kicked off at the Flemington Community Centre where participants were treated to performances from local multicultural music groups and the Police band. They also had the opportunity to meet Skeeta and all the Essendon players who did not take part in the game against Port Adelaide.
Participants then walked 4km to the Dome and concluded their journey with a lap of the ground.
Essendon Football Club would like to thank all football and non-football followers who got behind this event to show their support for such a great cause.
In particular we would like to thank the Department of Immigration and Citizenship, Victoria Police, the City of Moonee Valley, Metlink and the Australian Football League for helping us celebrate Australia’s success as a diverse society united by a common set of values.
