Under Eights Week 2025

The ECA Queensland committee is excited to announce the theme and artwork for Under Eights Week 2025: “Unleashing Scientific Thinking through Play.”

This aligns with the United Nations’ declaration that 2025 is the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology.

We look forward to planning celebrations with the early years sector that will support the myriad of ways in which children observe, make predictions, explore, test theories, and uncover scientific concepts through child-led play.

Keep up to date about Under Eights Week 2025 on the Under 8’s Facebook page.
