Children’s Day 2020
In 2019, tens of thousands of people engaged with Children’s Day, through social media and the website, not to mention all of the photos shared of people celebrating in creative ways at their own events.
Over 600 events were held across the nation, and over 15,000 kids were able to celebrate with last year’s Children’s Day bags.
In 2020, we encourage you to celebrate Children's Day on 4 August – explore our website for ideas and resources to help you celebrate this special day.
Our theme highlights the uniqueness and importance of the knowledge and wisdom of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, starting in childhood. Hearing children’s voices today plays a crucial role in their development towards being influential Elders and leaders of the future.
Our poster and promotional materials feature mural artwork at the Sidney Myer Music Bowl by Melbourne’s talented artist Matt Adnate of young Jedda, a Wurundjeri and Kalkadoon girl.
Children’s Day 2020 – the impact of COVID-19
SNAICC understands that the impact of COVID-19 means some people may be unable to celebrate Children’s Day on or around the 4 August in person.
We encourage you to embrace the day and find innovative ways to mark this special day. It could be at your early years service or with your family at home.
To help you celebrate, you can buy our Children's Day bags full of fun cultural activities for children. And download our Resources, including fun free activities.
Register your event, no matter how big or small. And share your celebrations on social media.
Celebrate with us to create a national atmosphere of celebration, respect and recognition!
