Harmony Day



Harmony Day is held on the 21st March each year.The focus this year is cultural diversity. Prior to the day, students worked with their buddy class to make flags representing their different cultural origins.

 
On Tuesday morning we paraded around the undercover area dressed in costumes from many countries. We enjoyed viewing the school art display with 'Y' charts from every student.
 

 


 

During the day we discussed how we can live in harmony and celebrate our differences. We made a 'Welcome Tree' writing 'welcome' in different languages on the leaves of the trees.
