Celebrating Wagga Wagga YOU[th]!
Youth Week is a youth-led celebration held across the month of April that is organised for young people 12 to 25 years. Our 2025 program saw youth-led activities for the City of Wagga happening over the whole two-week school holidays.
In late 2024, the 2025 Youth of Wagga Crew was formed as a collaborative and guiding group of local young people aged 12 to 25 years who led, imagined and designed the whole Wagga Youth Week program. Find some of the fabulous Crew down below.
We had so much fun kicking off our 2025 Youth Week creating a temporary chalk mural along the Wagga Wagga Art Gallery on Morrow Street! This was perfect for the artist in all of us.
Plenty of MarioKart racing followed at our Game ON! evening, bookish gals and guys got to vibe in the Wagga City Library after hours to bedazzle their favourite books, and friendship bracelet making was in abundance at every Youth Week event!
With the support of Riverina Community College, Murrumbidgee Primary Health Services and Wagga Wagga First Aid Training, we successfully upskilled over 80 young people with certificates in white cards, first aid, RSA’s, barista basics and youth mental health first aid. We also saw young people build life skills in budgeting, building employability skills, hair hygiene, drug and alcohol effects and body confidence.
Collaborating with Ashmont Community Resource Centre, Tolland Community Centre and St Vincents de Paul Riverina were highlights in having fun in active community environments!
Closing out the 2025 Youth Week program with a groovy Roller Disco, hosted by Twin Skate, was the perfect celebration of a jam-packed and record-high attendance of the whole two-weeks.
Our 2025 program was proudly hosted and funded by Wagga Wagga City Council and the NSW Government.
