 A family outing in the park is a simple pleasure many Australians take for granted, but it's a privilege the Shole family is truly thankful for. Eight years ago, Laos, his wife Ayum and their two eldest children fled their war-torn home in the Sudan for Egypt in the hope that a safe country would accept them as refugees. Laos says their prayers were answered when their application to come to Australia was approved. A lot of people talk about Australia is better than Canada and America and so on and so on. Four years later, and the Shole family has grown by two and is safe and happily settled in Sydney's western suburbs. The family now celebrating a significant milestone, becoming Australian citizens at a refugee week citizenship ceremony in Parramatta. I'm very happy because I think from today to next day I get a full ride thing and I'm happy for that. Three-year-old Awal and her baby brother Qual supporting big sister Awur, brother Chole and mum and dad as they took the pledge of allegiance. And whose laws I uphold and obey. The family proud to now call Australia home officially. We are the Australian people and we take care of Australian and Australian take care of our children. Chole summing up the special occasion on behalf of the kids. I feel excited and I feel happy.
