WA Week will be held from Monday, 19 to Sunday, 25 October 2009 and Children’s Week will be held from Saturday, 24 to Sunday, 1 November 2009.
Celebrate WA is keen for schools to support WA Week and has developed a range of exciting initiatives for participation. Useful information and tips for schools on different activities and events to promote schools is also available on the WA Week website at celebratewa.com.au.
Schools can also participate in Children’s Week, which is organised by the Meerilinga Young Children’s Foundation. There are awards for children, adults and projects as well as an official launch. Details of all Children’s Week activities and how to be involved are available on the website at meerilinga.org.au.
All the celebrations provide an opportunity to highlight the outstanding programs and achievements of students and teachers in our schools.
To celebrate education, we have developed a poster for display in schools reminding the community of the important role that public schools play in our society.
