NAIDOC week logo 6-13 July 2025

NAIDOC Week will run from Sunday 6 to Sunday 13 July 2025, celebrating and recognising the history, culture and achievements of First Nations peoples.

It’s an opportunity for all Australians to learn more about First Nations cultures and histories, and celebrate the world’s oldest, continuous living culture.

The theme, ‘The Next Generation: Strength, Vision and Legacy’, celebrates 50 years of NAIDOC Week. It encourages us to reflect on the achievements of the past and celebrate the bright future ahead.

Get involved

NAIDOC Week is a valuable opportunity for early childhood services to connect with, amplify, consider and respect First Nations voices.

A range of NAIDOC Week 2025 resources are available to help you celebrate at your service. The resources can be used any time of the year, not just during NAIDOC Week.

Victorian Koorie Early Years Exhibition Showcase

The Victorian Aboriginal Education Association Incorporated (VAEAI) is hosting the Victorian Koorie Early Years Exhibition Showcase in early August, and all kindergarten services are invited to attend.

The event will showcase Victorian Koorie artists, authors and creators who provide services relevant to kindergarten services and educators. There will be keynote speakers, workshops, and stalls where you can purchase educational resources on the day.

The event will help services embed First Nations perspectives into their programs, supporting the next generation of children. It will also demonstrate the successes of Victoria's Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisation early childhood sector.
