Matthew Werkmeister
Born January 30 1992, Matthew lives in the Melbourne suburb of Cranbourne, where he attends St Peters College, and is a supporter of the AFL club, Collingwood.
In 2008, Matthew was one of the judges for the Inkys, the only teenage choice books awards in Australia judged by people under 20.
Matthew joined the Children’s Performing Company in 2003 and it was through the company’s in-house agency that he landed the role of Zeke Kinski on ‘Neighbours’.
Having been part of the performing arts scene from such a young age, Matthew is a big advocate for getting young people involved in arts projects and through National Youth Week wants to encourage young people to pursue their own interests.
“It’s really important that young people recognise their talents and participate in activities that they are interested in. Finding people who have common interests can be really rewarding and it’s also a great way to make new friends.”
