You’ve got a friend in me | Children’s Week 2021 | West Gippsland Libraries

It’s time to celebrate Children’s Week and we decided to go straight to the source and ask some very special kids some questions about what friendship means to them.

A very big thank you to the kids and staff from Karmai Community Children’s Centre for their help in producing this video.

Children’s Week 2021 – Children’s Week is a national celebration that recognises the talents, skills, achievements and rights of children. It will run from Saturday 23 October to Sunday 31 October 2021, with thousands of Victorian children taking part in the festivities. The theme for Children’s Week 2020-21 is Children have the right to choose their friends and safely connect with others, drawn from Article 15 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.

Thank you to South Gippsland Shire Council and Baw Baw Shire Council for their generous support of our Children’s Week online programming.
