The Australian Services Union is taking strike action on Tuesday 5 May. Residential bin collections will continue as usual, but some council services may be affected on the day. Altona Library will be closed today; reservation items can be picked up at the Civic Centre. We will keep you informed of significant impacts. Thanks for your patience during this time.
Children’s Week 2026 will be held between 24 October and 1 November.
The theme is 'Children have the right to use their language, celebrate their culture and practice their religion'.
If you’re a local organisation, service or group interested in hosting an open day or child-friendly activity as part of Hobsons Bay’s Children’s Week in 2026, we’d love to hear from you!
Reach out to us at earlyyears@hobsonsbay.vic.gov.au to find out how you can take part.
