HARMONY Day celebrations united students from Claymore, Narellan Vale, Cobbitty and Cabramatta West public schools and Airds High School recently.
The event was held at Cobbitty Public School and principal Michael Buckley said it was so successful the Education Department’s multicultural liaison officer who attended was still talking about it.
Claymore students delivered a dance performance and a rendition of the haka.
Narellan Vale pupils staged a skipping performance. Cobbitty students gave speeches on the meaning of harmony and pupils from Airds and Cabramatta West performed Cambodian songs and dances.
“The Cambodian performance was particularly special to us as we have been working with a school in Cambodia since 2006, which is actually called Cobbitty School,” Mr Buckley said.
He said the relationship between the Cobbitty and Cambodian school aimed to create understanding between students.
