Taupo youth awards are back

The Taupo Times District Youth Awards recognise youth achievement and are open to young people living
and attending school within Taupo District (including Turangi and Mangakino).

Young people from year 7-13 are eligible for nomination in four categories – arts, academic, sports and leadership/innovation. There is also an award for an overall all-rounder.

The four categories are split into three age groups: years 7-8, years 9-11 and years 12-13. A panel of judges will select a winner and runner-up for each of these age groups.

Nomination forms are available from the Taupo Times office, district schools and from Taupo District Council offices in Taupo, Turangi and Mangakino. Organisers encourage the use of online nominations; the easy-to-use nomination form is available on here.

Nominations close on 5 August at 5.00pm.
