HELPING GRANT: A group of Whyalla Plaza Youth kids prepare for their first day on the field for a hooked on hockey program, one of the many programs that will receive a Whyalla News boost with the recent grant awarded to the group. Pictured are (from left) Phil Doyle, Ethan Powell, Steel City Hockey Club coach, Nick $14,000 for Plaza Youth Centre Theologou, Kaelin Joslyn, Aaron Smith, Kevin Smith, Ardan Greaves and Steel City Hockey Club volunteer, Christiaan Labuschange By Daniela Dean April 17, 2013 The Whyalla Youth Plaza Centre has been the only youth organisation in Whyalla to be awarded a $14,000 grant as part of the Community Benefit SA program. Plaza Youth Centre coordinator Joanne Jones said the organisation was really pleased to receive this grant. “We put a lot of time into applying for the grant,” Joanne said. “This one was a big one.” Joanne said the organisation needed it because they run a drop-in service on Thursday nights for kids to come off the streets from 3.30pm to 7.30pm. They now also run the same program every Saturday from 3pm to 8pm which is costly to run. “We needed three staff and we only had two at present,” Joanne said. “And we were getting up to 40 kids per drop-in session and for our environment we needed another worker.” Joanne is pleased with the success of the program. “It is attracting a lot of kids off the street,” she said. “While they’re here, they’re doing fun stuff, they’re interacting, they’re getting fed and they do other programs.” Joanne also added that the Whyalla Youth Plaza School Holiday Program has increased in popularity as they are one of few organisations running one at the moment. The centre normally partakes in activities paying for the children involved to have swimming time at the Leisure Centre pool or bowling and other such activities. Due to popularity increasing from 10 or 15 children previously, and now up to 30 children, more money was needed to pay for the school holiday activities. “We’ve also added some camps to take a targeted group of young people away,” she said. Joanne said she is grateful that the South Australian Government has recognized the success of the Whyalla Youth Plaza programs as well as their increase in popularity. She also added the programs at the centre are used as an engagement tool to help funnel children into other helpful programs. Minister for Communities and Social Inclusion Tony Piccolo says a total of $558,730 has been granted to community projects across the State in the latest round of the Community Benefit SA program. “The one-off grants provided under this program are used by organisations to help communities become more connected, independent and resilient,” Mr Piccolo said.

“The program aims to improve the quality of life for some of the most disadvantaged people in the community.”
