Children’s week at the Greek Community of Melbourne

·

As part of Children’s Week 2025, the Greek Community of Melbourne Schools are taking part in the celebrations organised by the Victorian Government from 18 to 26 October, with a free creative workshop for children aged 3–8 years, themed “My Rights, My Voice.”

Children’s Week is celebrated every October across Victoria, recognising and promoting the talents, skills, achievements, and rights of children. Each year, thousands of children participate in activities that highlight the importance of childhood and empower young voices within the community.

The Greek Community’s workshop will take place on Saturday, 18 October 2025, from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. at the Greek Centre, and will include a series of interactive activities designed to encourage creativity, self-expression, and collaboration. Through play and creative learning, children will have the opportunity to share their ideas and talents, express their voice, and learn more about their rights in an engaging and supportive environment.

The Principal of the Greek Community Schools, Ms Maria Bakalidou, stated: “Children’s Week is a powerful reminder that children are both our present and our future, and they deserve to grow up in an environment of respect, care, and equal opportunities.”

For more information and bookings, please visit the Greek Community of Melbourne’s website or contact the Community’s central offices.
