因應人口高齡化時代的來臨，為喚起國人對此議題的重視，讓社會了解「家家有老人，人人都會老」，並重振敬老尊賢之家庭倫理，教育部特將八月的第四個星期日訂為祖父母節。                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           

  本中心配合教育部慶祝祖父母節辦理一系列相關活動，活動如下：

    藉由推動上述活動，培養孩童從小養成「孝親尊長」、「敬老尊賢」的美德，並實踐在日常生活中，重振家庭倫理觀念。同時，透過祖孫間的共學，增加互動機會，搭起世代的橋樑，讓祖孫間零距離，並因應人口老化時代來臨，讓長者有機會不斷的學習，打造「活到老，學到老」終身學習的社會。
