Multicultural Education

The importance of Australia’s multiculturalism is highlighted through our teaching learning programs. Students explore the customs and practices of different cultures through their studies of celebrations, belief systems and governments. In addition, students investigate the impact that different cultures have in the creation of Australia’s identity. Each year, students demonstrate their respect and understanding for different cultures on Harmony Day. Classes participate in activities about multiculturalism, tolerance and respect. This special celebration includes a Multicultural lunch. Families and community members are encouraged to bring in foods from many different cultures for all to share and enjoy.
