Teens rock out for Youth Week

National Youth Week kicks off today and young people in Port Pirie are gearing up to get musical as part of BoysTown’s celebrations.

LEARN.CREATE.EXPRESS.

This is the 10th time the Muso Magic team, headed by Adam Thompson the frontman of 90's pop band Chocolate Starfish, will visit us.

More than 60 young people will take part in a two day workshop that will see them write and record a song, perform it live and make a film clip.

Young people from all walks of life are involved and they get together and socialise beautifully. It is a really uplifting experience. Youth Worker Ally Patterson

Hosted by BoysTown, it is always a great couple of days that helps young people to feel good about themselves, get along with other people and make new friends.

BoysTown Youth Worker Ally Patterson and program mentor Tass Morrison chatted to ABC Radio about the program.

You can also check out the film clip young people made last year.
