Upcoming BMLLEN events for 2013
Brimbank/Melton Youth Services Expo (for school staff only): To be held on Wednesday 22 May 2013 from 8:30 until 12:00noon. The aim of the expo is to connect a vast range of youth service providers with schools and other organisations working with young people. It is hoped that the outcome will result in service providers being able to showcase and promote their services to schools and other providers and an opportunity for school staff to enhance their knowledge of services available to support young people. (Services are student welfare based or pathways and transition based).
