Wellington Shire Council is proud to present the 2025 Wellington Early Years Expo, returning to the Gippsland Regional Sports Complex (GRSC) in Sale on Thursday, May 8.
The free expo will showcase a wide range of early years services, programs and activities that support children and families across Wellington Shire. The expo is a great opportunity for parents and carers to connect with local early years providers, while their children enjoy a range of exciting and interactive entertainment.
Young ones will be entertained by the GRSC inflatables, face painting, and a visit from the Bubblegum Fairy – bringing bubbles, fairy fun and a magical musical story time. Families can also enjoy the Wacky Wombat stunt and circus show; Bug blitz will be presenting mini-museum workshop display plus a free sausage sizzle for everyone to enjoy.
In addition to the entertainment, the expo will feature valuable information for families, including three and four-year-old kindergarten enrolment support, CPR education sessions and health and wellbeing resources from VicHealth and other local partners.
Wellington Shire Council mayor, Cr Scott Rossetti, said the expo is a fantastic opportunity for early childhood partners to come together, connect with families and educators, and showcase the quality programs shaping the future of learning in Wellington.
“The best part is that it’s all free. What a fantastic way for families to explore local programs and services, meet early years professionals, share ideas and resources, and spend quality time together in a fun and welcoming environment,” Cr Rossetti said.
The Wellington Early Years Expo will be held on Thursday, May 8, from 1pm until 5pm. Attendees are encouraged to register their interest by visiting the event page on Try Booking by searching for ‘Wellington Early Years Expo’ or by following council’s event page on Facebook.
The Wellington Early Years Expo is delivered in partnership with Uniting, VicHealth, Central Gippsland Health and The Middle of Everywhere, highlighting a strong local commitment to supporting the health and development of young children in the region.
