🧡 Harmony Day – 21 March 2026 🧡

Harmony Day is a time to celebrate Australia’s cultural diversity and the many cultures, traditions and languages that make our communities strong. It’s about respect, inclusiveness and a sense of belonging for everyone — because everyone belongs.

🧡 You can show your support by:
• Wearing orange, the colour that represents harmony and respect
• Sharing food, stories and traditions from different cultures
• Taking time to learn about and celebrate the diversity within our community

Together, we can help create a community where everyone feels welcome, respected and included.

STIs are on the rise – let’s talk about it.

Recent data shows an increase in s*xually transmitted infections (STIs), but the good news is that many STIs are preventable and treatable when detected early.

Practicing safe s*x and getting regular s*xual health checks are simple ways to protect yourself and your partners.

✔ Use condoms or other protection
✔ Get tested regularly – especially with new or multiple partners
✔ Don’t ignore symptoms – seek medical advice early
✔ Remember: many STIs have no symptoms, so testing is important

The Australian Government’s Before Play campaign is helping to break down stigma and encourage open conversations about s*xual health.

👉 Check out their STI Myth Buster video to separate fact from fiction and learn how to protect yourself and others.

Looking after your s*xual health is an important part of your overall wellbeing. If you’re due for a check-up, consider booking a s*xual health test with one of our Nurses.

If you have any questions or to make an appointment, please call us on (08) 9431 0500.

Testing is quick, confidential, and helps keep our community healthy.

This animation debunks common myths surrounding STIs and s*xual health.
