Meta Lenarčič is very well known for her work in the Melbourne Slovenian community. From 1980-2019 she was the editor of the review "Novice" that was published at the Slovenian Association Planica. Over the years at the association, she has also been a folkoric dance teacher, board member and also President. For 23 years she also helped keep the Slovenian language alive on the airwaves of 3ZZZ. She hopes that the next generations will continue to keep these traditions alive for generations to come.

Meta Lenarčič je izjemno dejavna Slovenka v Melbournu. Od leta 1980 - 2019 je bila urednica glasila Novice, revije, ki je izhajala pod okriljem slovenskega kluba Planica, kjer je vsa leta ohranjala slovensko kulturo kot učiteljica mladinske folklorne skupine, kot nepogrešljiva članica in predsednica društva. Kar 23 let (od leta 1991) je soustvarjala slovensko oddajo na Radiu 3ZZZ in s svojim požrtvovalnim delom ohranjala slovensko besedo. To seveda še vedno počne v vsakdanjem življenju in upa, da bodo mladi Slovenci nadaljevali njeno trdo delo in ga z veseljem in ponosom prenesli na mlajšo generacijo.
