The announcement was made following a graduation ceremony at the NSW Police Academy, Goulburn on Friday, December 13.
They are part of a 275 strong group of graduates who will complete one year of on-the-job training and study of the associate degree in police practice by distance education through Charles Sturt University before being confirmed to the rank of constable.
The recruits were inspected on the parade ground by NSW Police Commissioner, Mick Fuller, NSW Governor, Margaret Beazley and New Zealand High Commissioner, Dame Annette King.
Commissioner Fuller said the recruits would boost police resources during the busy summer period.
They are a welcome addition to police area commands and police districts across the state and to the community of NSW.
