What is Harmony Week?
Harmony Week is the celebration that recognises our diversity and brings together Australians from different backgrounds. It’s about inclusiveness, respect and a sense of belonging. The message of Harmony Week is everyone belongs.

At SJV we will be celebrating Harmony Week in our classrooms and coming together as a school community where everyone belongs on Friday 21st March. Students are encouraged to wear a touch of orange on their uniform. A ribbon, socks, scrunchie or accessory such as a hat or headband.
