This one-day workshop enhances student leadership groups’ capacity for developing and implementing positive tools for change in their schools and communities. Groups will work to unify their vision, build trust as a unit, clearly understand their role and influence as leaders, and know their responsibility to leave a positive change for generations of young leaders to come. We work to provide the mentorship, skills, and action-focussed mindset for student representative groups to develop and execute their own student-led initiative creating a genuine impact on their schools.

This program has the following objectives:

Provide student leadership teams with the skills to lead their school and community
Develop a greater sense of teamwork and collaboration to build a positive culture that can be felt through the school and community
Educate students on their ability and responsibility to leave a positive legacy within their community as leaders and changemakers
Explore the importance of self leadership, wellbeing and integrity
Develop personal and team goals and vision - working towards a north star
Provide students with mentorship and guidance to develop their own student led initiative.

All workshops have the following key YLAA outcomes:

Students participate in an experiential, learner-centred workshop
Small and large group debriefs facilitate building group consensus surrounding which direction students would like the workshop to lead into
A welcoming space of emotional safety and understanding is created, facilitating an environment where students feel comfortable sharing with the group
Programs are delivered in with a sustainable approach in mind considering both impact and environment

Additional Note: This program was designed and developed following consultation and recommendations provided by YLAA's Youth Advisory Board - As our organisation continues to evolve, we want to make sure that we continue to represent and empower the voices of youth in their own affairs, that’s why we have created our first Youth Advisory Board - not only to ensure that our students’ interests are at the core of every aspect of our organisation, but also to give the young people we serve the opportunity to develop themselves personally, whilst contributing to our mission of ensuring a sustainable future for all youth.
