The Department of Communities and the Department of Education are proud to sponsor a Play Picnic for Children鈥檚 Week 2024, hosted by Early Childhood Australia, on Tuesday, 22 October at Hyde Park.
Children and families can enjoy a fun filled morning with a range of play-based activities and learning experiences for the whole family, such as construction, sensory, music, reading and more!
Observed annually across Australia, Children鈥檚 Week (18-27 October) is dedicated to celebrating children and promoting the Rights of the Child as proclaimed by the United Nations in 1954. It also exists to remind us of our responsibility to advocate for children as citizens and their right to a positive childhood.
This year鈥檚 Children鈥檚 Week theme is based on Article 24 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child: Children have the right to a clean and safe environment.
