CQU Melbourne International Campus client services staff helped arrange a celebration of the Moon Festival on Friday, October 6.

PhotoID:3388 The Moon Festival is a big holiday with family reunions, moon gazing activities and feasting on moon cakes.

Students took respite from their assignment finalisations and exam preparations to mingle with staff and students, enjoy the traditional moon cakes and sip green tea.

Students from other cultures participated and took a keen interest in the cultural significance.

Information flyers on the Moon Festival were also distributed to promote cross-cultural appreciation.

The Diwali Festival and Ramadan will also be celebrated on the Campus in October.
