When they arrived in Australia, they first stayed at Bonegilla for 2 weeks. They shared a room as a family. They were then moved on to Maribyrnong Migrant Hostelle, they didn't have to stay here for very long as they had arranged accommodation.
       The food at both of these places wasn't great. It was a bit like the sloppy stuff they serve at high school in movies. It was the same every day. But they were just so happy to be in Australia.
       At both Bonegilla and Maribyrnong they taught English to people who spoke other languages, like my nanna and her sisters and mother.
