Harmony Week at Grow Early Education: Learning, Sharing, and Celebrating Diversity

March 21, 2025

At Grow Early Education, we embrace Australia’s rich multicultural heritage and believe in fostering a sense of belonging, respect, and inclusivity within our long daycare centres. Harmony Week, celebrated from March 17th to 23rd, is a wonderful opportunity to teach children about acceptance, respect, and unity while celebrating the diverse backgrounds that make up our communities.

This nationwide celebration highlights the importance of inclusiveness and cultural respect for all Australians, regardless of their background. The signature orange colour of Harmony Week represents meaningful conversations, communication, and mutual understanding—values we strive to instil in the children every day.

Throughout Harmony Week, our Grow Early Education centres across Australia will engage in various fun and educational activities that celebrate diversity and inclusion. Here’s how we have been getting involved so far:

  • Dress-Up Day – At Grow Early Education Gunnedah, children and Educators embraced diversity by dressing in traditional attire or wearing orange. They engaged in fun, themed activities, including arts and crafts sessions to further develop their understanding of what Harmony Week represents.

  • Multicultural Experiences – Across our Grow Early Education centres, we regularly engage with and share stories from different cultures, whether it be from our local Indigenous Australians or international cultures and holidays.

  • Diversity Art Projects – The children at Grow Early Education Bridgeman Downs created art pieces to showcase to their families around the centre. With the help of the Educators, children used their handprints to create personal details on their Harmony Day flowers. They also worked together to create their "Diversity Tree" using handprints as the leaves.

At Grow Early Education, we understand that early childhood is a critical time to instil values of respect, understanding, and inclusivity. By celebrating Harmony Week, we provide children with meaningful experiences that help them appreciate and embrace the differences that make each person unique. These celebrations encourage lifelong respect for diversity, fostering a future generation that values unity and kindness.

Let’s celebrate Harmony Week together and continue to nurture a world where everyone belongs!
