Coming to HT in 2026...

This semester, we are excited to introduce two new community celebrations that recognise and celebrate the rich cultural diversity within our Huntingtower community.

Mid Autumn Festival

Thursday 17 September

The Mid Autumn Festival is a significant celebration across many East and Southeast Asian cultures. Families traditionally gather to enjoy mooncakes, lanterns and cultural traditions, making it a wonderful opportunity for our community to learn from and celebrate together.

Diwali Celebration

Thursday 5 November

Known as the Festival of Lights, Diwali is celebrated by millions of people around the world and is a time of joy, hope and togetherness. Our Huntingtower celebration will bring our community together through cultural performances, food, activities and shared experiences.

These events are open to all members of our school community and we hope they will become special traditions at Huntingtower.

We'd Love Your Support!

If you or your family celebrate either of these festivals and would like to be involved, we would love to hear from you. 

Whether you can assist with performances, cultural displays, traditional activities, food, decorations or simply share your knowledge and ideas, your contribution will help make these celebrations authentic and meaningful.

If you would like to be involved in either event, please contact:

Lithium-ion Battery Safety

A message from Fire Rescue Victoria

As the school year continues, many students are using devices such as laptops, tablets, phones, e-bikes and e-scooters. Most of these devices contain lithium-ion batteries, which have become part of everyday life, but they need to be used safely.

Fire services are responding to an increasing number of fires caused by lithium-ion batteries, often caused by incorrect charging or leaving devices unattended. That’s why fire safety at home is especially important during the school year. 

You can help reduce the risk by: 

• Only using the charger and battery designed for each device 

• Unplugging devices once fully charged 

• Never charging devices on soft surfaces like beds or couches 

• Not charging devices overnight, or when no one is home 

• Charging larger devices such as e-bikes and e-scooters away from living spaces and keeping them clear of exits 

• Regularly checking devices and stopping use if a battery looks damaged, swollen or overheats

It’s also important to make sure smoke alarms are working and tested every month. Fire Rescue Victoria recommends installing smoke alarms in bedrooms, living rooms and near areas where devices are charged—because working smoke alarms save lives.

A few simple habits can help protect your home and your loved ones.
