Harmony Day

 

Parents and caregivers are welcome to attend the parade, which will begin at 11:00am in the PE Centre. As well as the Parade of Flags, some students may be performing songs in Spanish or Chinese, or dancing. The celebration is expected to last for approximately an hour and a half. 

 

Our Friends of Primary support group are organising for families to join us after the parade for a shared lunch. You are welcome to bring along a small platter of food from your culture, to share with the class. If it is food that doesn’t require refrigeration, you can send it in with your child at the beginning of the school day, if you are unable to attend. Please send a regular lunch and morning tea on this day, as some students may not eat what is on offer. Each class will be gathering outside their classrooms after the parade at approximately 12:15pm. At 12:50pm they will resume their regular school day, with lunch in the amphitheatre with their peers.

 

Please Note: If you are making a special dish, please clearly write ingredients on the outside so we can manage dietary requirements. Please adhere to our no nut policy in Primary School. Seeds are permitted, with an ingredient list.

 

As previously advised, we have a Parade of Nations, during which the students from different cultural backgrounds will parade through the assembly in national dress or carry a flag from their country of origin. If your child is interested in being part of our Parade of Nations this year, please complete the registration form via the provided link
