Harmony Day

Happy Harmony Day – a day when we all come together to celebrate cultural diversity, respect and inclusivity.

Everyone belongs! 

Harmony day, the day of celebrating cultural diversity seemed an ideal opportunity for students to “HOP” right in and think about how the different traditions and beliefs being observed by families in our community are celebrated. 

In Food Technology today….we talked about the relevance of the Bunny with Biblical Easter.

The learning intention focussed on commercially produced products for convenience; the melting properties of chocolate and the use of mechanical action in production. 

All to honour the humble Bunny!  

So cute, so easy, so delicious!
