John Theodoris and John Kallimanis

Mr MARK COURE (Oatley) (19:54):

:55 I acknowledge the work of the Order of AHEPA's past grand presidents John Theodoris and John Kallimanis, who were recently celebrated at the order's testimonial dinner. The mission of the Australasian Hellenic Educational Progressive Association [AHEPA] is to promote the Australian Hellenic ideals of education, philanthropy, civic responsibility, family and individual excellence. Both past grand presidents have played an integral role in furthering the order's mission of strengthening the community awareness of the principles of Hellenism in society, which include commitment to humanity, freedom and democracy. It was my immense pleasure to attend the order's testimonial dinner recently, where the dedication of Mr Theodoris and Mr Kallimanis, as well as other past chapter presidents, was recognised and celebrated. I thank both Mr Theodoris and Mr Kallimanis for their outstanding work, and I congratulate President Bill Skandalakis on this fantastic event.
