22nd to 30th October 2022 is Children’s Week! 

🥳 22nd to 30th October 2022 is Children’s Week! 👧
Children’s Week is a national celebration of 🧒children’s rights, talents and citizenship held on the fourth Wednesday of October in Australia to coincide with Universal Children’s Day. Each year the theme of Children’s Week highlights a particular Children’s Right.
The Theme for 2022 is Article 27, which is ‘All children have the right to an adequate standard of living including house, food and clothes that support their development’.🤗

Children thrive when;
✅1. They have access to a standard of living that is good enough to meet their physical and mental needs.
Under Article 27, this means the government should help families who cannot afford to provide this.
✅2. We trust children’s capabilities and give them space.
For young children this might mean organising their own playtime; ⛹️‍♂️for older children this might mean setting up a group to discuss issues that are important to them.
✅3. We play our part to keep children safe.
This includes considering children’s online safety,💻 talking to them about their personal safety and how to respect the rights of others, and learning more about how organisations can keep children safe.

Children’s Week 2022 is a wonderful opportunity to promote the rights of children 🧒and young people, and to celebrate their capacity to actively contribute to the world around them.
