Mayor Carol Adams said the LyriK program had been offered for more than 12 years and helped to develop a positive youth culture in the City of Kwinana.
“It is important that we recognise young people when they excel, to enhance their sense of pride and encourage them to keep up the good work,” she said.
Nominations close June 3 and the awards night will be held on June 21.
