Education is a key focus for Harmony Day.
Communicate the importance of cultural diversity – encourage values, promote participation and provide some fun ways to learn.
Our diversity makes Australia a great place to live. Harmony Day is a celebration of our cultural diversity – a day of cultural respect for everyone who calls Australia home.
Held every year on 21 March, the Day aims to engage people to participate in their community, respect cultural and religious diversity and foster sense of belonging for everyone.
This website is managed by the NSW Department of Education on behalf of all Australian schools.
We Acknowledge the many diverse Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Nations of Australia, and pay respect to the Custodians of the Land and Waters of these Nations on which we live, learn and work, and to the many Ancestors who shaped and nurtured Country.
