Clean Up Australia Day: Year 6

Last week on Friday as part of clean up Australia day the Year sixes went around the Beaumaris Community Centre and picked up rubbish all around the area. We mostly found cans and bottles and lots of lolly packets! We all picked up tons of rubbish and we did a very good job for now. If you’re around the area or anywhere actually please make sure to pick up any rubbish you see. Even small pieces matter and we will slowly but successfully make Beaumaris crystal clean!

Harmony Day: Friday 19 March

Harmony Day will be celebrated at BPS on Friday 19 March. The aim of Harmony Week is to foster inclusion, respect and a sense of belonging for all Australians, regardless of cultural or linguistic background, united by a set of core Australian values. The slogan for Harmony Week is ‘Everyone Belongs’. 

 

On the day, our students are encouraged to add ‘a touch of orange’ to their uniform. This could be a hat, scarf, socks a t-shirt etc. but school uniform needs to be worn. Why orange? Traditionally, orange signifies social communication and meaningful conversations. It also relates to the freedom of ideas and encouragement of mutual respect. 

 

Each year level will be participating in Harmony Day activities and we will all be enjoying a performance from Rhythm of Life African Drumming at assembly, at 2.45 pm, to conclude the day.
