Bundaberg Child Protection Week 2025 Events
Child Protection Week is a national event held from 7–13 September 2025. This year’s theme, “Every conversation matters: Shifting Conversation to Action,” reminds us that it’s not enough to talk about child safety — we need to act. Whether it’s building confidence in young people or providing safe creative spaces for kids, each event is an opportunity for our community to stand together and support children’s wellbeing.
Here’s what’s happening in Bundaberg so far:
