Melton’s children will have a wide variety of fun activities to enjoy next week as part of National Children’s Week activities.
Running from Saturday, October 22 to Saturday, October 29, this year’s activities will centre around the theme of ‘All Children have the right to a standard of living that supports their wellbeing and healthy development’.
The Melton Community Hall is hosting a range of activities on Tuesday, October 25 from 10am to 12.30pm, including painting pots, meeting animals at the petting zoo and enjoying a concert with Damo Music for Kids.
Council staff and local service providers will also be on hand to provide information and answer families’ questions about the programs and supports available to them.
Free child car restraint fittings are also available with pre-booking required.
The Caroline Springs Library will then host activities on Thursday, October 27 from 3.30pm to 5.30pm, including badgemaking, creating a team banner and taking part in an African drumming workshop.
Melton mayor Goran Kesic said the activities will support the council’s ongoing efforts to support and celebrate the city’s young people.
“For kids, these activities are so much fun, and for their families, it’s a time to play together and celebrate the joy that children bring,” he said.
