This year’s Children’s Day theme and bags are here!

March 31, 2016

SNAICC is excited to announce the 2016 theme for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children’s Day!

Held on 4 August each year, Children’s Day has been celebrated across the country since 1988 and is Australia’s largest national day to celebrate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children.

The theme for Children’s Day in 2016 is My Country, Our Country – We All Belong, and is about celebrating our culture, connection to each other and the future together.

The day also recognises those working with our children and families across the sector, and raises awareness about critical issues impacting our children.
