John enjoyed himself and said he would like to go on the train more.

Showing support on Harmony Day

The Newcastle Anglican community is a place of inclusion and belonging for all persons.
 
Harmony Day is an annual event that recognises diversity and brings together Australians from all different backgrounds.
 
We marked the day by encouraging our people to wear orange or their traditional cultural attire at our Warabrook and Booragul offices.
 
A number of activities also took place at Lakes Grammar - An Anglican School and Manning Valley Anglican College on the day.
