Croydon Karen community
Mr HODGETT: I would also like to make mention, especially during Cultural Diversity Week, of the Karen community that have been a welcome part of the wider Croydon neighbourhood since 2006. Originally two Karen families settled here, and we now have a community of more than 400 families in the Maroondah area. The Karen are a friendly and hardworking community, and they increase the cultural diversity in Croydon.
