Police are appealing for public assistance to locate two teenaged girls reported missing from Sydney's north-west.
Clarissa Venter, aged 13, and Madison Wells, aged 14, were last seen at a school on Castle Street, Castle Hill, about 3pm Tuesday (13 September 2022).
When they could not be contacted, officers from The Hills Police Area Command were notified and commenced inquiries to locate them.
Police hold concerns for Clarissa and Madison's welfare due to their age; the girls are believed to be together.
