Harmony Day is a wonderful celebration of diversity and inclusivity where people come together to appreciate and respect each other's unique backgrounds. Yesterday, the Student Leadership Group took the initiative to spread joy by decorating cakes to share with all students and staff. This act of kindness not only brought delicious treats to everyone but also fostered a sense of community and togetherness.
One of the highlights of the day was "The Wings of Harmony" activity, where both staff and students participated in decorating feathers that were later assembled into a pair of wings. Each feather was personalized with the individual's name and the country they were from, symbolizing the beauty of different cultures coming together to create something beautiful. This creative and collaborative project not only showcased the rich diversity present within the school community but also promoted unity and understanding among all participants.
Love the Harmony wings. What an awesome idea.

The Regional Learning Specialists in a Statewide Services Initiative will support students in regional and remote schools who have been enrolled in courses through the School of Isolated and Distance Education, providing additional support to negate studying online.
The specialist teachers visit schools across the state once a term and provide additional after-hours tuition to students online. Katanning Senior High School is extremely grateful for this initiative, as well as the expertise of the teachers who visit the school and provide additional support online.
This Term, we had visiting teachers support our students in English, Mathematics Methods, Mathematics Applications, Human Biology, and Physics.
Our sincere thanks to Jamie Morris, Michelle Rechichi, Luke Miles and Venetia Scaife, who have visited Katanning Senior High School this term.
