National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children’s Day was celebrated across the nation last Thursday with Sarina Youth Centre hosting celebrations.
Children’s Day is a day for children, families, communities and all Australians to celebrate the strength and culture of children.
The occasion, which has been run annually since 1988, provides an opportunity to show support for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children as well as learn about the crucial impact that culture, family and community play in the lives of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children.
Sarina Youth Centre marked the day with arts and crafts and other activities, creating birds and other animals out of a variety of materials.
