A range of free activities will be available for Wollondilly’s young people this coming school holidays as part of Youth Week celebrations.

Targeted at young people aged 12-24 years, Youth Week is usually celebrated around Australia in April each year.

Due to Covid-19 restrictions, this year Youth Week was postponed, but the Wollondilly Youth Advisory Committee (YAC) are pleased to announce that they have a number of activities happening in the September/October school holidays.

The theme for Youth Week 2020 is Speak up. Be involved. Get connected. Have fun.

All activities are free, thanks to the funding provided by the NSW Government and Council.

Wollondilly Mayor Robert Khan said, “Council and the Wollondilly Youth Advisory Committee has some fantastic events planned for Youth Week.”

“This is a great time to celebrate young people in our community and we hope to give them access to activities that they might not normally be able to afford or be able to travel to.”
