GIRLS IN FIREFIGHTING CAMP 

There will be a Girls in Firefighting camp at Mogo in the July school holidays. It’s about community resilience and opening the minds of teenage girls to the opportunities out there.

The girls will be led by mentors from different fire agencies and get to discover all the different types of trucks, fitness test drills, remote navigation and also call in a helicopter with a water bucket. The girls will get to sit in the helicopter and talk to the pilot. 

A great opportunity to learn new skills and get something that will stand out on your resume. Click here for details.

YOUNG ENDEAVOUR YOUTH SCHEME

Applications are now open for 2021 youth development voyages in STS Young Endeavour, Australia’s National Sail Training Ship. Youth aged 16-23 are invited to apply for the new 2021 voyage dates, sailing from May – December in New South Wales, Queensland and Victorian waters.

During each voyage the ship embarks a crew of young Australians who will learn the skills to sail a square-rigged tall ship, including how to navigate, keep watch, cook in the gallery, set and furl sails, climb the 30 metre mast, and take the helm. They will live ‘between decks’ with fellow youth crew from across Australia, and will be encouraged to pursue personal and team goals and challenges. Click here for details.
