Why take part?

Bring your community together

There's nothing quite like a sea of bright, bold shirts to bring your little ones, educators and families together! Loud Shirt Day is a fun, colourful way to celebrate inclusion while raising vital funds for children with hearing loss.

Every loud shirt makes a difference

When your daycare or pre-school gets LOUD, you're helping children with hearing loss access life-changing support that helps them to build confidence, connect and thrive.

Choose a day that works for you

Loud Shirt Day officially takes place on Friday, 16 October, but you can hold your event on any day that works best for your centre. Whether it's a dress-up day, shared morning tea or centre celebration, there are plenty of fun and easy ways to get involved.

How to sign up your daycare or pre-school

01 Sign up your centre

Sign up to the Loud Shirt Day, selecting the participant category of Daycare or Pre-school.

02 Set up your fundraising page

Set your fundraising goal and personalise your page with a photo and a few words about why your centre is taking part. It helps families, friends and your wider community get behind your fundraising.

03 Get everyone involved

Spread the word to your educators, families and little ones, and start planning your celebration. The more people who get bright, bold and LOUD, the bigger the difference you'll make for children with hearing loss.
