Working in harmony

By Star Weekly

HARMONY Day has brought together people from throughout Brimbank to celebrate what makes the area special.

St Albans disability services organisation Scope partnered with the Migrant Resource Centre North West to provide a special lunch for the community with performances by Ambient Orchestra (pictured).

Sunshine Heights Primary School celebrated the day with ‘the world game’.

With pupils from 46 cultures, the school is one of the most multicultural in Melbourne but football is a love they can all share.
