» HEALTH THEME INFORMATION

Each year YOH Fest selects a relevant youth health issue as its theme for the year. All YOH Fest productions are to be based around this theme.

The 2012 YOH Fest health theme is: Substance Abuse.

SUBSTANCE ABUSE

Substance abuse is an ever-present issue that young people can be confronted with in Australia and around the world.  Students might explore how substance abuse such as drugs, alcohol, and tobacco can have a direct harmful or hazardous damage to ones health aswell as its link to physical and emotional trauma.

Encourage your students to be creative and really think outside the box.

We must stress that the simulation and brand promotion of alcohol, drugs and cigarettes is STRICTLY PROHIBITED.  Failure to abide by this will result in disqualification of your item.
