2025 Active Youth Program – Nyah West Primary School

The Active Youth program is a powerful tool for engaging youth in the Mallee, utilizing local schools as platforms to connect, engage, and co-design with a diverse array of cultures and young people. Through consultations with students and data gathered via surveys, we match the interests of the young people with opportunities for physical activity and social connection in the region. The insights obtained directly from the students will inform the design and content of 4-week Active Youth programs. These programs will showcase the wide range of sports and active recreation available in the community and provide opportunities for young people to experience and connect with these activities on an ongoing basis and encouraging our youth to participate in regular physical activity and make positive life choices.
