It is important to mark significant community events because sharing in this way strengthens communities.

Such ceremonies include:

- celebrating new citizenship
- acknowledging disasters such as bushfires or floods;
- sharing grief as in the SIDs annual memorial;
- honouring the work of volunteers;
- celebrating the founding of the local area.
