Kindness Day - 6 November 2025

Harbord Public School makes a Rainbow for World Kindness.
What an amazing day was had on Thursday Nov 6th! Students came adorned in block colours of the rainbow, a gold coin in hand and raised a total of $1391.30 for Bear Cottage. The Student Representative Council enjoyed a day where they could see students from all grades, unite and share in the pure joy of the event, creating colour and happiness across the school playground and classrooms. Smiles were brighter, laughter was sweet and students met people from various grades that they otherwise wouldn’t have connected with, complimenting each other on their outstanding outfits along the way.

There are two students dressed up for the book week parade. One is dresses as Oscar the grouch from Sesame Street wearing a garbage bin, a green wig and green paint. The other student is wear a Big Bird costume with a yellow wig, a yellow feather scarf around their neck and a yellow tutu skirt.

Book Week Parade - 25 August 2025

Book Week is a special event at our school that celebrates a love of reading.
There’s something special about seeing our students’ faces light up as they bring their favourite stories to life (and maybe a little joy in spotting a few secret teacher costumes too).
All in all it was a day filled with fun, laughter, and a little bit of magic. We’re already counting down the days until next year’s parade because, let’s be honest, who can resist an excuse to dress up and dance in the sunshine?

100 Days of Kindergarten - 30 July 2025

Kindergarten celebrated 100 days of Kindergarten. This is a celebration marking the 100th day of school. It's a milestone where students and teachers reflect on the learning and growth achieved in the first half of the school year.
It was wonderful to see our students dress up to represent 100 in so many ways. Thank you to our amazing Kindergarten teachers who not only looked stunning as 100 year olds, but also planned a fun day filled with so many activities based around the number.
