Harmony Day celebrations will be held this week (week 8). Harmony Day is a day to celebrate Australia’s diversity. It is a week of cultural respect for everyone who calls Australia home. The ongoing theme of Harmony Day is “everyone belongs”.

By participating in Harmony Day activities, we can learn and understand how all Australians equally belong to this nation and enrich it. At Holy Family each class will be involved in activities leading up to and on Harmony Day. These include the opportunity for families to share their cultural experiences with our community (for example, reading a book, singing a song, teaching a dance).

On Friday 22 March students are encouraged to wear traditional cultural clothing, orange or school uniform. Students will also be able to order a special Harmony Day lunch of Butter Chicken or Chickpea Curry and rice and an Orange Jelly for $6.50 through the canteen.  The normal canteen menu for lunch orders will not be available on Harmony Day however the canteen will still be open at recess. Please complete the order form below and return to the school with payment. Order and payment may also be completed through the QKR! App.
