Logan children, we need to hear what is important to you!

We would like to hear directly from you, young people (3 to 14 years old).​​​​​​​​​​

 

You could be ‘The voice of childhood’ and represent children in at the National 2025 Childhood Summit, October 24 & 25, Unity Hub Conference Centre, Logan.

2025 Childhood Summit theme:

'Through Their Eyes'

​

This year’s theme hopes to invite children to share their wisdom and insights and let grown-up’s in, on the worlds they inhabit. This will:

​

• Showcase the diversity of issues facing modern young people in the neighbourhoods and communities they live.

• Demonstrate the wisdom of young people and their valuable solutions and contributions to wicked problems.

• Provide children a pathway for contribution to our communities.

• Support children to grow into active, engaged community citizens who strongly value the land, the people and community. 

• Support grown-ups’ to make better decision with and for young people

• Raise awareness of the limited opportunities children have in this modern world, to feel heard, validated and valued.
