A big thank you to everyone who joined us for the SAIA Business Lunch! It was fantastic to see so many people come together to connect, share ideas, and strengthen relationships within our industry.
The purpose of the excursion was to: immerse students in Italian culture through food, gardening, and sustainability, expand students’ Italian vocabulary related to plants, food, and cooking, provide a hands-on learning experience in an authentic garden setting, encourage curiosity about traditional Italian ingredients and how they are grown.
Earlier this year, on the occasion of International Women’s Day 8th March, the Consulate of Italy in Adelaide and the City of Norwood Payneham and St Peters, in collaboration with the Australia Donna Association, unveiled the city’s first “Red Bench.” The initiative is part of the Red Rose Foundation’s ongoing efforts to raise awareness of domestic and family violence in Australia. This initiative is proudly sponsored by the South Australian Italian Association.
SAIA Briscola Competition 2025 brought the community together for a fun and energetic day of friendly rivalry, creativity, and teamwork.
The event was a wonderful celebration of leadership, collaboration, and community — and another great example of the strong connections within our SAIA network.
A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) has been officially signed between the Italian Consul in Adelaide and the Department for Education SA, reinforcing our shared commitment to promoting the Italian language in South Australian schools. This important agreement, supported by the Italian government and facilitated through the Ente Gestore Program (Language Assistance Program) by SAIA, marks a new chapter in cultural and linguistic exchange.
Earlier this month, the South Australian Italian Association (SAIA) was proud to host its annual Ente Gestore (Language Assistance Program) Meet & Greet, welcoming newly arrived Language Teaching Assistants from Italy to South Australia. This special event brought together teaching assistants participating in international language programs, providing a valuable opportunity for cross-cultural exchange, professional networking, and community engagement.
