We are excited to announce that our multicultural family networking group are organising a family event to celebrate Harmony Week on Friday, 22nd March between 3:00pm and 5:00pm. The event will take place on the oval straight after school and conclude at 5:00pm. The afternoon is an opportunity to spend time with other families whilst celebrating the multicultural St Dominic’s community. Everyone is invited!
This event was borne from the very popular ‘Celebrating and Supporting Cultural Diversity’ morning teas, which are regularly held amongst our multicultural families. We are so proud that this initiative helped unite our families and has inspired them to encourage everyone to celebrate their cultural uniqueness within our school community.
Please bring :
- Your family
- A plate of food from your culture to share
- Drinks for your own family
- A picnic blanket/ chairs to sit on
- Your national flag if you have one
