Children’s Art Competition – Closing date extended to 17 May

Due to the interruptions of COVID-19, NAPCAN has extended the annual children’s art competition by one month, with the deadline now set for 17 May 2020. 

National Child Protection Week starts on the first Sunday of September (6-12 September 2020) and the artworks created by children and young people (up to age 18) are an important part of the campaign each year. 

With the wellbeing and safety of children at the heart of the campaign, it’s vital that their voices are included.

Many thanks to all those who have already sent in their beautiful entries!

Entries close 17 May 2020. Winning entries in each state and territory receive a $50 gift voucher.
