Settlers Primary School staff and students were involved in various multicultural activities to celebrate inclusivity and friendship as part of our Harmony Week Celebrations.
Staff and students were invited to wear orange or traditional cultural dress on Friday 19th March.
Thank you to Mr Lawry for putting together our music for our sirens for the week.Monday – Wednesday included songs from all Western Australian artists who have a connection to other cultures around the world. These songs were recommended by Office of Multicultural Interests in Western Australia. Some of it is really interesting, especially the singer from Iran who learnt to sing Persian music when it was prohibited for women to perform!!! Thursday included songs from New Zealand Friday included indigenous songs from around Australia.
Thank you to Miss Mauchline, Miss Langborne and their Year 6 volunteers for organising the lunchtime colouring for students.Combing all of the colouring to make the word HARMONY.

Harmony Day Celebrations
BASSA SUMMER CARNIVAL
The 2021 BASSA Summer Carnival was held at Larkhill Sports Complex on Tuesday 9th March
Settlers took along 8 teams of Year 5 and 6 students to complete in League Tag, Hockey, European Handball and Cricket. The change of date made it a challenge for teams and their teachers to train at our full potential, however the teams made us proud.
Hockey finished in 4th place, European Handball 6th and 4th, League Tag 4th and 2nd and 2nd place in Cricket.
We were extremely pleased with the fantastic sportsmanship displayed by our students and their efforts in the warm weather made sure we had some tired students the next day.
Thank you to our parent volunteers who helped coach and manage the teams on the day and well done to all students who competed in BASSA Term 1!
