Another early start, but well worth it to attend the Howick Youth Council Principals Breakfast for 2024, where the new council introduced their teams and plan for the year to local school principals.
Made up of local school and university students, the Howick Youth Council determines and delivers their own programme for the year. It was great to see a range of new events and activities as well as the return of some highly successful ones from last year. This shows that they're continuing to evolve and adapt to the changing needs of their community, as well as utilising the strength and passion of their new members.
The Howick Local Board is proud to provide funding and support for these amazing rangatahi and has done so for more than a decade. Every year they continue to impress, with great succession planning ensuring they're setup for success.
I thanked the principals for helping guide these amazing young leaders and also for enabling them to be involved in HYC.
