Harmony Day

What is Harmony Day?

Harmony Day is a celebration of our cultural diversity. It’s about inclusiveness, respect and a sense of belonging for everyone. Orange is the colour chosen to represent Harmony Day. Traditionally, orange signifies social communication and meaningful conversations. It also relates to the freedom of ideas and encouragement of mutual respect.

We celebrated Harmony Day on Thursday 23rd March and were very excited to welcome back Rhythm Culture!  Students and staff participated in an African drumming session and dancing during the day.
