IN THIS EDITION OF SCHOOL TV | Celebrating Harmony Week
Harmony Week is a celebration held annually in March across Australia. It’s aimed at promoting diversity, respect and inclusiveness. The goal is to encourage everyone to appreciate and celebrate differences and promote a sense of community and belonging for everyone.
As a parent, you can engage your children in discussions about multiculturalism and encouraging them to ask questions. Promoting a more harmonious and inclusive society, can help children grow up with a greater appreciation for the richness and diversity of Australia's cultural landscape.
This Special Report hopes to instill positive values and create an opportunity to start a conversation with your child about understanding diversity and multiculturalism.
