Mount Alexander Shire Youth Awards
The Mount Alexander Youth Awards are held every two years and are a celebration of local young people who live, work, study or play in the shire. The awards aim to recognise and highlight the work young people are doing and the contributions they make to the wider community.
The 2022 Mount Alexander Youth Awards Festival saw six incredible young people take home well-deserved awards.
The festival was held at Western Reserve in Castlemaine where people of all ages gathered to celebrate the contributions that young people make to our community.
The awards recognise leadership across five separate categories.
