Andrew Kemp HMAS Stirling has made a real multicultural meal of
celebrating Australia’s Harmony Day.
The Stirling (CMDR Philip Orchard) Ship’s Company was joined by
Republic of Singapore Navy and other Australian Defence personnel
for a special lunch, with more than 350 people enjoying the occasion
together.
And in true harmony, the Junior Sailors’ Mess hosted an all-ranks
open buffet with the catering staff providing dishes from around
the globe including Italy and Europe, Asia and the Pacific.
Established by Department of Immigration, Multicultural and Indigenous
Affairs six years ago, Harmony Day gives community groups, businesses,
schools and individuals the opportunity to celebrate multiculturalism
and recommit to continuing tolerance and understanding.
It coincides with the United Nations International Day for the Elimination
of Racism.
