CASEY’S kids visited Myuna’s Farm in disguise last week when children dressed up in their favourite costumes to celebrate Children’s Week.
On Thursday 24 October, children sprung into play at Doveton’s Myuna Farm to mark Children’s Week, an initiative which celebrates a child’s right to play and enjoy their childhood.
Families from across the city attended the day and enjoyed an array of activities such as pony rides, face painting, drumming, nursery animals and much more.
Casey is a diverse community and is predicted to be home to 47,000 children aged between 0 and 9 years by 2017.
Former City of Casey mayor Amanda Stapledon praised the event and said it was one of many which aimed to be accessible for all families.
“Council is dedicated to ensuring that the services, programs and events we provide are inclusive and accessible to all families and children in the community,” she said.
