The 2026 APPA Primary Education Summit will be held on Tuesday, 26 May 2026, in the Great Hall at Parliament House, Canberra.

Building on the momentum of last year’s inaugural Summit, this year we turn our focus to the theme Strengthening the Foundations – Collaboration for Australia’s Next Generation.

The 2026 Summit will once again bring together national leaders and key stakeholders from all sectors and jurisdictions to strengthen coordinated action for children and families.

Together, we will advance shared priorities and align them with the aspirations of the Mparntwe Declaration, shaping a nation where every child is supported to thrive.

Your voice and perspective are an important part of this national discussion, and we would be honoured to have you participate in the 2026 APPA Primary Education Summit.

Please join us as we move from conversation to collaboration, focusing on what must happen next for Australia’s future.

Registration is available via the QR code above.
