YOUTH WEEK: KIAMA KIDS FEST OFFICIALLY UNDERWAY

Member for Kiama Gareth Ward has today joined with Deputy Mayor Melissa Matters of Kiama Municipal Council to officially launch Kiama Kids Fest at Hindmarsh Park in Kiama.

“Youth Week is an important reminder to acknowledge and to encourage our local young people to be empowered, to lead, grow and to thrive every day,” Mr Ward said.  

“I would also like to give a special mention and ‘thank you’ to the SENTRAL Kiama Youth Services team for their incredible work and the support they provide for young people in our local Kiama community.

“SENTRAL is a youth-led service where everything they do is guided by the voices of young people.

“The team, including Kayla and Rhys, work alongside young people all year round to co-design programs, events, and services that truly reflect what they want and need,” Mr Ward concluded.

I also acknowledge the many community stalls with some fantastic displays today until 3pm including Kiama Municipal Council, the Minnamurra Lions Club and Kiama Headspace.
