- Knox Youth Summit
Knox City Council Youth Services is hosting the Knox Youth Summit, an exciting event bringing together young people across Knox to discuss important issues including mental health, the environment, cultural diversity and more.
The summit is an important process of consultation for Council to hear from young people and provides an opportunity for their voices to be heard. It is open for any young person who lives, studies, works or has a connection to Knox and is free.
There will be two events to provide as much accessibly for young people to attend, recognising that young people undertaking VCE/VCAL/VET or similar may be unable to attend on a regular school day:
- Wednesday 23 August, 12-18 year olds – 9am – 3pm
- Saturday 9 September, 16-25 year old – 10am – 2pm
Both events will be held at the Knox City Council, 511 Burwood Highway, Wantirna South with lunch, morning and afternoon tea being provided.
Register now
A registration form needs to be completed by the young person directly, or by a parent/guardian.
Please note anyone who is under the age of 18 will require parental permission to attend this event. We will be contacting all parents directly once we have received a registration to confirm attendance and answer any questions about the day.
