Harmony Day
This coming Friday is Harmony Day at St John's. Our theme for the day is "Everyone Belongs." We will also be participating in National Day Against Bullying. We are asking students to wear orange clothes. Traditionally, orange signifies social communication and meaningful conversations. It also relates to the freedom of ideas and encouragement of mutual respect.
Parents are most welcome to join us throughout the day. The timetable is as follows:
9:00am Prayer
9:30am Rhythm Empire is performing for the whole school. Rhythm Empire is a theatrical multicultural music and dance extravaganza featuring rhythms, dances, instruments, language and costumes from across the ancient world. The colourful history and cultures of the Silk Road come to life when audiences join the performance, to barter, trade, and perform in a rollicking world music jam!
