The event is being organised around Bravehearts 'White Balloon Day' - Australia's largest and longest-running campaign dedicated to preventing child sexual assault.
Held annually during National Child Protection Week, White Balloon Day unites communities to make a commitment to protecting kids.
Bravehearts South Coast Chairperson Wendy Woodward says its time to get Ditto's 'Keep Safe Adventure Show' back into local schools and Early Learning Centres:
"The number of children sexually assaulted each year is staggering and unacceptable, we are committed to breaking the silence around this issue, raising funds for important education programs and helping kids who are suffering," Wendy said.
"We encourage people to come along to our event at Harry Sawkins Park, wear white and support this important cause," Wendy added
