Grandparents have a unique role.

They don’t just connect us to the values, stories and histories of our families, but to the values, stories and histories of our communities.

In 2011 the State Government chose to recognise the contributions that grandparents make by launching Grandparents Day. Each year, Grandparents Day will be celebrated in NSW on the last Sunday of October.

This year Grandparents Day will be celebrated on Sunday 27 October 2013.
