Kindness Treasure Hunt
Inspire young hearts at the Kindness Treasure Hunt across Brisbane this October 2026. Starting at Newstead and finishing at South Bank Parklands, this free event invites kids and parents to complete fun interactive challenges, honor local community heroes, win raffle prizes, and receive a free event T-shirt along the way.
Kindness Treasure Hunt 2026
The Kindness Treasure Hunt is a community initiative initiated by 7 year old West End student Maurice Maas.
The event encourages children to actively engage with their community by participating in a fun treasure hunt across Brisbane. Expected to attract approximately 250 children and their parents or guardians, participants will visit a variety of interactive stations where they will be challenged to perform acts of kindness, gratitude and service directed towards local heroes such as firefighters, police officers and hospital staff. Through these activities, children learn the value of empathy, resilience, teamwork and community spirit while gaining a greater appreciation for those who serve the community.
Participation will be completely free for all children and families. Every participating child will receive an official Kindness Treasure Hunt T-shirt and will be eligible to win prizes in a free Kindness Raffle Draw.
The Kindness Treasure Hunt aims to strengthen connections between children and the wider community while inspiring the next generation to recognise that even small acts of kindness can create a meaningful and lasting impact.
