Monash Make a DIFFERENCE Week!
By: Sandeep Dhanoa Monash Make a Difference Week consisted of a fun-filled activity, Bubble Sport along with a Food Bazaar! Exhilarating, exciting and tiresome are arguably the best words to describe bubble sports. Although this fun sport had to play second fiddle to the scrumptious food bazaar, interactive games such as Bubble Rugby, King’s…
