The 2025 theme is based on Article 42 of The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child:
Everyone should know about Children’s Rights.
Children’s Week 2025 will be held between 18 October – 26 October 2025.
Children’s Week is Australia’s national celebration of children’s rights, held annually in October. In the Northern Territory, NAPCAN (NT) leads local programming that aligns with the national theme: “Everyone should know about children’s rights” (UNCRC Article 42).
From 18 to 26 October 2025, we invite communities across Darwin, Alice Springs, Katherine and remote regions to host, attend and celebrate children’s voices, creativity, and rights.
