Last Monday representatives of the Melbourne University Greek Association (MUnGA) paid a visit to one of Melbourne’s oldest Greek schools, St Vasilios in Brunswick.
The visit was a chance for the committee to present a generous and thoughtful donations to the students, including a TV set and five Greek-to-English and English-to-Greek Oxford dictionaries.
