Celebrate Harmony Week with Active Monash - 2026

Published on 10 March 2026

Harmony Week is a time to recognise and celebrate Australia's rich cultural diversity. It's about inclusiveness, respect and sense of belonging for everyone.

The City of Monash is one of Melbourne's most culturally, linguistically and religiously diverse communities, with over 54% residents born overseas and more than 56% households speaking a language other than English at home.

At Active Monash, we're embracing the Harmony Week message - everyone belongs - through a range of in-centre activities from 16 - 26 March:

• Harmony Tree: Contribute by colouring a handprint that represents your cultural background.
  
  
• Taste of Harmony: Share a favorite recipe that reflects your heritage.
  
  
• Les Mills Launch Q1 (MARC)
  • Body Pump - Friday, 20 March - 9:05am
