শুভ নব বর্ষ ১৪২৪,
Dear members of the community,
I hope you are keeping well. You are well aware that BAAWA has organised to celebrate the advent of the Bengali New Year 1424 on the 23rd of April 2017.
Although, we have organised the event at the Murdoch University Bush Court this year too, the difference is – the whole new approach to make the event more colourful, both in terms of the cultural presentation and the organisation of the fair ground and the stalls.
A large number of community members have worked very hard to make this event happen, especially the large number of child participants who spent so much of their time practising. For encouraging the children to hold on to our beloved culture and also to enjoy their lovely presentation, please do come in early. This is my humble request to you all.
Of course, this year we have also organised a variety of mouth licking food for you to enjoy throughout the day, so don’t miss them either!!!
There’s also all the clothing stalls with varieties of dresses for you to browse through and buy at a bargain!!! Don’t regret later, if you come late and there’s no more for you to choose from….
Will catch up with you tomorrow then.
Please refer to the BAAWA cultural secretary’s email below for the full program of the event.

Please see below the program detail of Banglar Mela 2017/বাংলা বর্ষবরণ ১৪২৪.
We are celebrating Bengali New Year 1424 (বাংলার মেলা ২০১৭/Bangladesh Fair 2017) on 23 April (Sunday) at Lower Bush Court, Murdoch University to spread the message of Love and Hope. The celebration will start with Children’s performances, colourful Rally (MONGOL SHOVAJATRA) and Group songs. On behalf of BAAWA, I request you all to wear traditional colourful dress to make this event more vibrant.
Shova Jatra (Rally) at 10:30am :
To participate in the rally, please make sure you come by 10:00am to the ground as the rally coordinator needs some time to organize the MONGOL SHOBHAJATRA. BAAWA will organize the banner and some festoons to share among the participants. But you are most welcome to show your creativity and bring your own.
Children’s Art Competition at 1pm:
There will be two categories:
Group A: Kindy up to year 3
Group B: Year 4 to year 6
Time: 1:30pm to 2:15pm
BAAWA will provide A3 art paper ONLY.
Please bring art pencil, colour pencil, eraser or water colours according to your requirements. It is important you bring a hard board to keep your art paper on that surface as the ground surface is uneven and NOT suitable for drawing.
Theme of the art competition: “Bangladesh”.
Attractive Prizes will be awarded for the best 3 paintings in each category.
Boishakhi Fashion Show at 3:30pm:
“বাংলা বর্ষবরণ” (পহেলা বৈশাখ) is a celebration of Bengali heritage and culture, a tradition unblemished by modernity. This year we will have a ‘Boishakhi Fasion Show’, showcasing the traditional dresses, representing the festival and Bengali culture.
