Welcome City
To celebrate Harmony Day, The City of Newcastle have created the clip below:
The City of Newcastle welcomes people from all walks of life, and is proud of its multiculturalism and proud history.
The continuing message for Harmony Day in 2011 is that Everyone Belongs, which means all Australians are a welcome part of our country, regardless of their background. It's a time to reflect on where Australia has come from, recognising the traditional owners of this land. It's also about community participation, inclusiveness and respect – celebrating the different cultures that make Australia a great place to live.
DIAC supports a range of community events and activities held to celebrate Harmony Day by providing free promotional products.
Harmony Day began in 1999 and since then, a wide variety of groups including sports organisations, community groups, local government, schools and businesses have staged more than 25 000 Harmony Day events.
Over the years, Harmony Day has grown in popularity as Australians have made the day their own.
