'This CPA Get Together event was superb to strengthen our bond among VU members. The activities were exciting and I had fun for sure. In my opinion, I think future events like this should be continued but it should include more on information about CPA Australia as I think it wasn’t very informative. Thank you guys for organising such an event. Well Done people!'
