Wellbeing News

From Saturday the 22nd of October to Sunday 30th October, Children's week events are presented by the Hobsons Bay City Council in partnership with the Victorian Government.

 

All events are free for families in Hobsons Bay with children aged 12 and under. This year's theme is “All Children have the right to a standard of living that supports their wellbeing and healthy development’. 

 

We know and understand how important student health and wellbeing is for our community of learners. Connecting with services and programs in our local community is a great way to help students build relationships, connection and a sense of belonging.
