Omar and Saad Syrian Scouts

Omar and Saad are not just Syrian Refugees. They are also not just numbers, statistics or policy dilemmas.It has been just over a year since Omar and Saad have been in Melbourne and they now speak fluent English. They engage me in fascinating discussions about Australian politics and community life while we eat our dinner. The reason they are able to do so with such fluency is because they have been watching Parliament Question Time since arriving to improve their English skills and learn about Australian politics. I stare incredulously at both of them.
