Newa Guthi Victoria Presents Newa Culture at Geelong Nepali Pathshala
15 August 2026 | Geelong, Victoria
Newa Guthi Victoria was pleased to visit Geelong Nepali Pathshala on 15 August 2026 for a special cultural presentation and interactive session introducing children to the rich heritage and traditions of the Newa community.
The session focused on introducing students to Newa culture, traditional music and festivals, with an engaging presentation designed to help young learners understand and appreciate Nepal’s diverse cultural heritage.
Students were introduced to Newa Baja, including the traditional Dhimay, as well as the significance of festivals such as Gai Jatra and Indra Jatra. The session explored the history, traditions and community values behind these celebrations in a simple and engaging way for children.
The visit also provided an opportunity for the students to learn about the work of Newa Guthi Victoria and its efforts to preserve, practise and share Newa culture with younger generations and the wider community.
Newa Guthi Victoria sincerely thanks the Geelong Nepali Pathshala, teachers, parents and students for the warm welcome and enthusiastic participation. We look forward to continuing to work together to promote cultural awareness, learning and community connection.
