The Youth Awards encourage young people in the City to commit to further studies beyond Year 10.

They are open to students working towards an Australian Tertiary Admission Rank, those in general or Vocational Education Training studies and students who are following an alternate education program.

Applicants are also judged on community involvement and their relationships with their peers.

Applications close on November 25 at www.joondalup.wa.gov.au.
