Children's Week

Children's Week is a national celebration that recognises the talents, skills, achievements and rights of children. It will run from Saturday 24 October to Sunday 1 November 2020, with thousands of Victorian children taking part in the festivities.

The theme for Children's Week 2020 celebrates the right of all children to choose their own friends and safely connect with others. This is based on Article 15 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.

During Children's Week, local councils organise open days, displays, special events, virtual spaces and online-based activities. They celebrate childhood and showcase children's achievements.

In light of coronavirus (COVID-19), Children’s Week 2020 has been expanded to include online and virtual events for children. Given that the situation continues to evolve, all in-person events will be subject to the health advice and guidelines in place at the time.

There are some great activities available - through the Yarra Ranges via Webex.  please see below for activities and dates.
