City welcomes new Youth Councillors for two-year term
The City of Greater Bendigo has formally appointed 18 Youth Councillors for the 2021-2022 Youth Council term.
The group was endorsed at last night’s Council meeting and the outgoing councillors were thanked for their contribution.
The Youth Council represents the voice of young people aged 14 to 24 years who live, work and study in Greater Bendigo, and provides the perspective of young people to support Council decision making.
Mayor Cr Jennifer Alden said she looked forward to working with the young cohort.
“I am excited to work with the new Youth Councillors and hear their perspective on a range of local issues. In particular, they will have a key role in shaping Council’s new community vision, Council Plan and other important strategic documents that must be developed before the end of the year. They will also support the review and development of a new Youth Strategy for the City,” Cr Alden said.

Today’s Tauranga Half produced two outstanding elite races, with Kyle Smith narrowly holding off Braden Currie in a dramatic finish to win the men’s race, while the women’s race saw Teresa Adam produce a world class performance, to smash the course record by 13 minutes 46 seconds.
The 32nd running of the Tauranga Half drew the best elite fields for many years, and one of the most sensational finishes in the history of the race.
Kyle Smith looked to have the race under control with a 3 minute 20 second lead heading out on the run leg, but after hitting long distance sport’s infamous “wall” around the Mount Maunganui’s base track, had to rely on willpower to hold off a fast finishing Currie, before collapsing over the finish line.
