About Harmony Week Resources
Harmony Week teaching resources support Australian primary teachers to celebrate cultural diversity and promote inclusion and respect in the classroom and school community. Observed in the third week of March each year (centred on 21 March, the United Nations International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination), Harmony Week is Australia's celebration of cultural diversity — a time for students to explore, share, and appreciate the many cultures represented in Australian schools and communities.
TeachBuySell's Harmony Week collection includes resources about cultural diversity and multiculturalism, activities for sharing family and cultural traditions, art projects inspired by different cultures, research activities about countries of origin, collaborative community-building activities, and resources linked to the Harmony Week theme of 'Everyone Belongs'. Browse class multicultural book studies, cultural dress and tradition exploration activities, 'around the world' research projects, and classroom display resources celebrating the diverse backgrounds of your students.
Harmony Week resources are most powerful when they connect to the lived experiences of the students in your class and community. Many resources in our collection invite students to share their own cultural backgrounds and family traditions — creating a meaningful learning experience that values and celebrates every student's heritage. Browse our Harmony Week collection to find resources that help your class celebrate the richness that cultural diversity brings to Australian life.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are Harmony Week resources suitable for all year levels?
Yes. We have Harmony Week resources for Foundation through Year 6, with age-appropriate activities exploring cultural diversity, inclusion, and community belonging. Younger students explore simple cultural comparisons and sharing activities, while older students engage with more complex discussions of multicultural Australia.
Can I find resources that allow students to share their own cultural backgrounds?
Absolutely. Many Harmony Week resources are designed to invite student sharing — through family tradition interviews, cultural heritage project templates, multicultural food and festival research activities, and 'all about my culture' presentation resources.
Are there art resources linked to Harmony Week and cultural diversity?
Yes. Art projects inspired by different cultural traditions are a beautiful way to celebrate Harmony Week. Browse our collection for multicultural art projects, flag design activities, traditional patterns and textiles explorations, and collaborative class artwork.
Do Harmony Week resources connect to the HASS curriculum?
Yes. Many resources link to HASS content descriptions about diversity, community, and Australia as a multicultural society, making them valuable for both the specific Harmony Week context and broader HASS teaching throughout the year.
Are there Harmony Week resources about anti-racism and standing up to discrimination?
Yes. Some resources in our collection address anti-racism, bystander behaviour, and the importance of standing up against discrimination in age-appropriate ways — connecting to the human rights focus of the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination.
