Plan your November with this month’s collection of key classroom events, awareness days and national celebrations — chosen for Australian schools and teachers.
This calendar highlights important cultural celebrations, national campaigns, awareness weeks and fun classroom days that can help you build connections, inspire learning, and bring relevance to your teaching program. Each month, we share the major events alongside a printable version you can use in your staffroom or planning folder, complete with a section to record your own school or community events.
You don’t need to acknowledge every date — simply select those that reflect your students’ interests, community values and learning goals. These awareness days can be wonderful springboards for inquiry-based learning, wellbeing discussions and creative classroom activities.
If you spot something we’ve missed or have a local event to include, we’d love to hear from you — just reach out via our site.
Dates may change, so check back regularly for updates.
