HARMONY DAY


On Wednesday 23 March we celebrated Harmony Day at school. This year the theme was Everyone Belongs.  We celebrated the cultural diversity of Australia. We read stories about people around the world and we looked at how we are the same and how we are different. We looked at websites which showed different houses, schools and bedrooms from all around the world. We realised how lucky we are to be living in Australia.
 
In Art we focussed on what makes us special or different. We wrote about it on a piece of calico which was then turned into a whole school piece of art called the House of Harmony.
We also got to dress up on Harmony Day. We got to wear traditional costumes from the country we are from or where our family is from. We could also wear something orange because this is the official colour of Harmony Day. We got to take part in the parade at the assembly.
