Child Protection Week

In 2025, the National Child Protection Week message is ‘Shifting Conversation to Action’.


This year’s theme highlights that while open discussions are crucial, words alone are not enough: we must turn dialogue into meaningful action.


How are you moving beyond conversations to concrete actions that prevent harm, strengthen support systems, and empower communities to actively protect children?

Sloped Writing Board

  • Seating
  • Other

    • Description

    An angled writing board can reduce the need for neck and trunk flexion during tabletop activities e.g. writing or reading. This may help where a child has restricted upper body movement and strength (reduces need for reach, promotes functional hand positions for fine motor tasks) or a visual impairment. It promotes a more upright trunk position, good hand position for drawing activities and may reduce eye strain for visual scanning activities.

    Dimensions:

    450mm x 350mm

    7 positions. Angle Range: 20° - 70°.

    Inclusion Possibilities

    • Supports participation and engagement of tabletop activities with peers where physical barriers may restrict time or ability to play on a horizontal surface
    • Can be used for individual and/or group experiences

    Things to consider

      • Space available on table and set up assistance required (due to weight)

    Storage and use

    • This equipment can be used indoors and outdoors in dry areas but must be stored indoors when not in use
    • Stores flat when not in use
