Harmony Day – Monday March 21. Supporting Vouch for Lismore Flood Appeal
Monday 21 March is Harmony Day – a celebration of Australia’s cultural diversity, promoting inclusiveness, respect and a sense of belonging for everyone.
The SRC are encouraging students to show their support for cultural diversity by wearing orange or their culture’s traditional dress.
They will be collecting a gold coin donation, which will go towards the Vouch for Lismore flood relief program.
This is an initiative of The Rivers Secondary College Lismore, where the Richmond River Campus was completely covered by flood waters. Many students and staff have lost everything, and the school site will be unusable for at least the next 12 months. Funds raised (in the form of vouchers for Woolworths, Coles, Big W, Kmart, Lowes etc.) will be distributed by the school to families in need.
We are also looking for students who may wish to run cultural food stalls or other entertainment on Harmony Day, to raise additional funds for Vouch for Lismore. If you would like to run something on the day, please register your interest here.
