Harmony Day is always one of the most anticipated events at Sevenoaks. Created in 1999 to celebrate unity and diversity, Harmony Day was originally an Australian celebration but is now marked worldwide. Whether you want to be better friends with your neighbours or stand in the shoes of another, we’ve got some harmonious habits and unifying ideas to make your Harmony Day a picture of peace.

Highlights of the day included old favourites and new activities and displays: our traditional international flag display; traditional African drummers and their inclusive workshop and performance on stage; Arty Umbrellas (the display lives on in our library); Westoz wildlife and their Australian animal collection that included a beautiful koala and two snakes; and Henna Tattooing.

Many students were resplendent in their national costumes showcasing their heritage and culture. There were many colourful performances, including dances by our Clontarf boys, the Deadly Sista Girlz, and performances by the music class.

As usual we celebrated with food from many different cultures and flavours. A big thank you to the hospitality students for this and for running the coffee cart throughout the event.
