Children’s Week is a National, annual event held around Universal Children’s Day, on the fourth Wednesday in October right across Australia. This week is dedicated to celebrating children across our State and to highlighting their achievements.
Children’s Week is an opportunity for the community to engage in a variety of activities that facilitate, support and encourage children and their families to play, learn and grow together.
Children’s Week recognises the rights of children to play and enjoy their childhood.
This year, Children’s Week opens on Saturday 22nd October and concludes on Sunday 30th. The major Opening Event will be held at Whiteman Park on Sunday 23rd October and the Children’s Week Awards Ceremony will be held on Wednesday 26th October – Universal Children’s Day.
