Wodonga through young eyes
15 JUNE 2009
Children and young people of Wodonga will discuss their views about making Wodonga a child-friendly city at a forum on Wednesday 17 June. Children and young people (aged 4 to 17 years) from a range of preschools and schools will meet at the Children’s and Young People’s Summit to share their research and ideas. The summit, to be hosted by Wodonga City mayor, Cr Mark Byatt, includes opportunities for local decision makers to hear the views of children and young people. There will also be interactive sessions to inform the young participants about key local and global issues. Sessions will be led by local experts, including Wodonga City’s Cr Lisa Mahood. The Summit is the culmination of a collaborative project between Charles Sturt University’s (CSU) Murray School of Education, Wodonga City Council and Wodonga early childhood services, primary and high schools. The project has focused on increasing children and young people’s awareness of their community and their role within it.
