National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children’s Day (Children’s Day) is our national day dedicated to celebrating our children. Children’s Day is celebrated across the country each year on 4 August.

The first Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children's Day was held in 1988. The date was chosen to communally celebrate the birthdays of the young children taken from their families during the Stolen Generations before they knew their birthday.
