Nominations open for City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder's 2025 Youth Awards

Nominations are open for local awards celebrating the achievements and contributions of young people and youth-focused organisations. The City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder is calling for nominees for the 2025 Youth Awards, which shine a spotlight on the talent, passion and community spirit demonstrated by youth aged 12-25. There are six award categories available for nomination: young achiever, young tradesperson or apprentice, young community champion, young cultural leader, youth worker or volunteer, and organisation of the year. Mayor Glenn Wilson encouraged community members to get behind the awards and nominate a deserving young person or group. 'Every year, I'm excited to hear the real-life stories of young people doing great things in our community — from volunteering their time to leading cultural initiatives to excelling in their trades and studies,' he said. 'These awards are our chance to acknowledge that hard work and say 'thank you'. 'It's also about showing our youth that their efforts matter — and that their city and community sees and values what they're doing. 'If you know someone who's making a difference, big or small, now's the time to put their name forward.' Last year's winners included Triple M Goldfields' Abbey Cullen, who took home the young achiever award, John Paul College cultural captain Nikita Mereyato who won the cultural leader award, and Kalgoorlie PCYC which was named youth organisation of the year. This year's award winners will be announced on May 17, with recipients receiving a $500 cash prize. Nominations close at 5pm on April 28, and can be submitted at
