Sydney (VNA) – Curtin University’s Bentley Campus buzzed with Vietnamese culture as the Vietnamese Student Association at Curtin (VSAC) launched the first-ever Vietnam Odyssea 2025, a vibrant celebration of heritage and community. The event, backed by the Town of Victoria Park, Curtin College, Curtin University, and various Vietnamese organisations and businesses in Western Australia, drew a diverse crowd eager to experience Vietnam’s traditions. Curtin College Director and Principal Quentin Derrick praised the Vietnamese student’s professional organisation, saying they had shown that international students can serve as cultural “ambassadors”, spreading their heritage and building bridges across communities. VSAC aims to make Vietnam Odyssea an annual fixture, with plans to deepen ties with the Curtin Student Guild and other international student groups. It seeks to amplify Vietnamese culture while cementing enduring cultural bonds between Vietnam and Australia./.
