This event is for the young ones and those young at heart. Samichlaus and Schmutzli will be in attendance.

When:  Sunday 7 December 2025

Time:  11.00 – 3.00pm

Where:  Swiss Embassy, 7 Melbourne Avenue, Forrest

Contact:  Cathy Schmidli or Sonja Gasser

Bring:  All your own makings for a picnic. A BBQ will be available for your use.

RSVP:  You will have to register so that the embassy is aware as to who is on site.

Goodie bags will be handed out to all the good children and adults. Samichlaus will read a message to your child/ren. In Switzerland this is normally a few points on what good things they’ve done during the year and what they could improve on. You can provide details of what you would like to be read to your child in the RSVP form (in English, German or Swiss-German). We encourage children to share any songs, poems, or pictures with Samichlaus.

We hope to see you all there. And thank you to the Embassy for hosting this event.
