Harmony Day Celebrations (March 21, 2025) in 3-4 Mika and 3-4 Iyer

On March 21st, 2025 (Friday), 3-4 Mika and 3-4 Iyer got together to celebrate Harmony Day. We discussed the importance of Harmony Day and why we celebrate it in Australia. We spoke about the importance of being inclusive and kind to everyone.

Miss Mika brought in a beautiful saree that belonged to her mum, and Mrs Iyer showed us how it’s traditionally worn. Students were fascinated to learn about this elegant, single-piece garment, worn by women in many South Asian countries like India, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh.

Then we did some amazing artwork organised by Miss Mika to showcase the relevance of Harmony Day to our classroom, accepting each other’s uniqueness.

To end our time together, we enjoyed some delicious Indian biscuits—childhood favourites of Mrs Iyer—which added a sweet touch to our shared celebration.

It was a beautiful way to honour our diversity, and we hope you enjoy these snapshots of our special day!
