Children's Week 2025

Children’s Week is a national celebration held annually across Australia, aimed at raising awareness about the rights of children, as outlined in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.

The 2025 Children’s Week National Theme is based on Article 42: Everyone should know about Children’s Rights!

Children’s Week runs from 18 to 26 October, with celebrations held across Australia.

Children’s rights are fundamental rights that ensure every child can grow up safely, healthily, and happily.
