Special Days: Harmony Day

Description

Australians celebrate or commemorate a number of special days throughout the year. These special days give us the chance to reflect on the past, appreciate our lives, and look to the future together. On 21 March each year, Australians recognise Harmony Day. This is a vital day of action towards the elimination of racial discrimination, that falls within Harmony Week. Discover the value of multiculturalism and the benefits of learning about other cultures.

The Special Days series looks at some of Australia's important days, the history behind each day, and how Australians celebrate or commemorate the day. Inside each book, you'll find statistics, fun facts and photographs, as well as current information on how each special day plays a part in Australia's rich culture. Every book is a valuable resource designed to support Australian students and teachers and cover Australian Curriculum topics.
