‘The children are our future.’ It’s a well-loved cliché around the world because it’s absolutely true. The hopes and dreams we have for our communities are only as strong as the children and young people who continue to believe in them long after we’re gone.

This month is all about supporting our young people, to encourage and empower them to not only be the change-makers and community builders of tomorrow but also the best versions of themselves. To listen to their perspective and remember that it’s not just about what we can teach them, but what lessons they can teach us. After all, the recipe for creating healthy, happy children includes a lot of the same ingredients for building safer, more resilient and connected communities.

Want to share your thoughts?

Let us know how you’re supporting young people in your communities this month by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:

863/119125

Yes this is me skiting while I can with my top 0.7% ranking in the Aussie / NZ Rugby league tipping competition. With another 3 games this week end that could go either way I thought it prudent that I show off now while I am ahead. I have been ahead all season of the nrl.com sites EXPERT tippers comprising ex players TV and print media reporters. It is with great humility that I accept your thanks and congratulations..
I started watching League when TV first started in Invercargill mid 60's with the British game. Then when I was living in Sydney 74/75 my girlfriend dragged me off to a Souths pre season Friday night game and from there we went to watch my Easts team , was living in Coogee afterall , and her Souths every week end. I ended up playing the game in the Goldfields of Western Aust when I got back from Africa in 1980 until I headed off to Asia in late 82.
