Local students were presented with a world of opportunity at the Echuca Moama Youth Expo, held at the Echuca Stadium.
Years 7 to 10 students from Echuca College, Echuca Twin Rivers Specialist School, Rochester Secondary College and St Joseph's College attended the eye-opening expo that displayed more than 40 stalls.
A wide range of social groups, sporting clubs, businesses, organisations and health services were on exhibit.
The expo was a collaboration between CCLLEN, Campaspe Shire Council and participating schools using FReeZA and Youth Fest funding from the Victorian government.
The expo provided a space for local organisations, community groups and clubs to present opportunities for young people to get involved in their community or to become part of a supportive group environment. Hobbies and interests such little athletics, dance and martial arts were exhibited, as were volunteer groups such as the CFA, YAG and library.
A student committee made up of representatives from each of the attending schools, contributed to the creation of this event, putting forward ideas for the exhibits, competitions and other activities.
The expo aims to connect young people to sports, hobbies, activities, clubs, services and volunteering opportunities available to them locally.
