Kyogle Council gets behind Youth Week 2025

Supporting and encouraging young people is at the heart of this year’s Youth Week activities hosted by Kyogle Council.

Council is working with other local organisations to deliver a host of events specifically for young people.

The events range from a free trip to Rollerworld in Lismore to mountain biking and a Zine Fair.

Kyogle Mayor Danielle Mulholland said Council was committed to supporting the area’s young people and giving them a chance to shine.

“Our Youth Week events are about giving our young people from across the LGA the opportunity to have a bit of fun, while they simultaneously build support networks and friendships,”  Cr Mulholland said.

“Our young people are our future and by investing in them, we are investing in the future of the LGA.”

Events held so far have included a free “Zine”  making workshop (Zines are self-published magazine-like publications) that included live music and a Mocktail workshop aimed at raising awareness of alcohol and drinking responsibly.

Other events include a free trip to Rollerworld in Lismore with buses running from Kyogle and Bonalbo (Thursday, 10 April from 4-7pm), and mountain biking (a free shuttle service to the Kyogle Mountain Bike Trail will run from 9-11am on Saturday, 12 April and Tuesday 15 April).

There will also be Zine Fair featuring live music and run by Wild West Productions at the Kyogle Memorial Institute Hall on Saturday, 12 April from 12.30-5pm.
