By Dr Peter Gangemi - Mayor of The Hills Shire Council
Congratulations to the almost 400 Hills Shire residents who became Australian citizens yesterday.
It was great to meet and hear the stories from each of our newest citizens, who came from dozens of countries across the world including India, China, Iran, Jordan, Egypt, Namibia, Kenya and South Africa.
It was also fantastic to see Pioneer Theatre packed out with supporting family and friends for this great occasion.
