Children’s Week 2020
Art Competition
Children's Week celebrates the right of children to enjoy childhood and recognises their talents, skills and achievements. Children's Week 2020 celebrates the right of all children to choose their own friends and safely connect with others.
To celebrate Children’s Week 2020, we invited children and young people to enter our Children’s Week Art Competition.
They were asked to draw, paint, or digitally illustrate a picture that showed us how they stayed connected with family, friends and community during Melbourne's COVID-19 lockdown.
