Harmony Week
Harmony Week is a time to celebrate Australian multiculturalism, and the successful integration of migrants into our community.
Harmony Week is about inclusiveness, respect and belonging for all Australians, regardless of cultural or linguistic background, united by a set of core Australian values.
Australia is a vibrant and multicultural country — from the oldest continuous culture of our first Australians to the cultures of our newest arrivals from around the world.
Our cultural diversity is one of our greatest strengths and is at the heart of who we are. It makes Australia a great place to live.
Orange is the colour chosen to represent Harmony Week. Traditionally, orange signifies social communication and meaningful conversations. It also relates to the freedom of ideas and encouragement of mutual respect.
Last Friday we hosted an incursion from The Nikki Visaj Movement, Dance, Fitness, and Mindfulness. Our coach for the day was the very energetic Dagogo. Each class throughout the morning learnt their story and dance routine. The whole school later in the afternoon performed a dance off to many applause from teachers, support staff, parents,carers and fellow students.
Our 2/3 classroom offered the experience of China. Groups decorated paper plates to put together as a bigger piece, a Chinese Dragon.
We are egarly sticking all the individual pieces together so we can showcase the final Chinese Dragon.
