Youth in Ohariu

Your Voices, Your Future: An engagement group for year 12 and 13 students living or studying in the Ohariu electorate.
I have recently started an engagement group that focused on a group of people in Ohariu whose voices are not always heard. Youth in Ohariu was setup for Year 12 and 13 students in the Ohariu electorate who are politically interested, and would like to have an opportunity to have their views heard. Meetings are held monthly at Parliament.
The first meeting, held last month, included a tour of the complex with me as a special tour guide. I was impressed with the 20 or so people that attended, all of whom were very curious and excited by this new opportunity.
If you know someone who lives or studies in the Ohariu electorate and would be interested to participate, please send an email to
