Colac Otway Shire
Colac Otway Shire, supported by Colac Area Health, delivered a series of youth-focused vaping prevention initiatives across the region.
What Was Delivered
Seventeen engagement sessions were delivered across diverse education settings, reaching more than 300 students through interactive workshops focused on vaping risks and prevention.
Colac Secondary College hosted a large-scale World No Tobacco Day event involving 400 students, Headspace and a local radio station. Year 10 students led a creative prevention campaign, producing posters, decals and a video for social media and local cinema. The winning video will run as a cinema advertisement for 12 months, with decals displayed in schools, skate parks and community spaces.
Students from Lake Colac School co-designed an evidence-based poster campaign, which will be consolidated into a large professionally designed display.
