Youth Action
Recently a meeting was held with students from Nangiloc/Colignan at the Red Cliffs Secondary College to discuss ideas for activities they would like to concentrate on in their community as part of the community plan. Discussions were also held with the Gr 5 & 6's at Nangiloc Primary to make them aware of the youth part of the community plan.
From these meetings a meeting was held on the 19th of August at the Nangiloc Hall to discuss and consolidate ideas the youths wish to concentrate on achieving in the future.
The list of ideas was split into priorities the youths would be able to work in with councils (MRCC) Youth Department which looks at school holiday programs and after school activities, as well as a list of priorities the youths in the area could concentrate on achieving.
Some of the ideas agreed upon were; investigating the opportunity for a games room/table tennis club, family fun days, visits to the skate park in Mildura, movie day in Mildura (part of school holiday program), scrapbooking groups, camps overnight and many others. A document will be completed detailing all the ideas voted upon and will be distributed out.
An action group will now be formed to work on achieving the actions proposed in the meeting as well as working with councils Youth area to allow the youths to achieve some of their actions. Any youths keen to be involved in this action group can contact Jarrod Delahunty (MRCC) ph 50188296.
