Mai Ho arrived in Victoria in the 1970s after escaping from Vietnam. In this virtual session, students will be introduced to her story.
Educators from the Immigration Museum will use objects from the museum's collection to share this unique personal story and investigate the ways in which personal histories can be documented.
Thomas Le’s visual representation of Mai’s journey from Vietnam to a refugee camp and eventual relocation to Victoria, Australia will be an element of the session.
This program is offered as an interactive virtual session.
