Our campus was alive with colour and culture as students dressed in traditional attire or bright orange to celebrate Harmony Day. Ellenbrook Christian College proudly embraces its rich cultural diversity, with over 50 different nationalities represented throughout the college.
The day kicked off with excitement as Primary School students engaged in a variety of fun activities, from exploring different cultures to enjoying a lively game of T-ball. Meanwhile, Secondary students took part in interactive activities led by the ECC Well-being Team, fostering connection and appreciation for the diverse backgrounds within our school community.
The highlight of the day was the much-anticipated Cultural Food Stalls at lunchtime. Crowds of students eagerly lined up to buy tickets, ready to sample an array of delicious dishes from around the world. From Danish Cinnamon Scrolls and Chinese Fruit Tanghulu to Aussie Meat Pies and South African Milk Tarts, the stalls were brimming with flavours that reflected the many cultures within ECC. The incredible Year 12 Student Leaders, with the guidance of the wonderful Mrs Cronje, took charge of cooking and running the stalls, making the event a resounding success.
Harmony Day at ECC was more than just a celebration—it was a powerful reminder of the beauty of diversity and the strength of unity. It was a day filled with joy, cultural appreciation, and a true sense of belonging, reinforcing that at ECC, everyone has a place to call home.
