National Student Volunteer Week is an occasion to honor the dedication and impact of student volunteers at Curtin University. These volunteers are actively engaged in bringing positive change to various sectors, including schools, communities, and environmental initiatives across Western Australia.
For students seeking volunteer opportunities during this special week, here are three meaningful ways to make a difference:
Firstly, Curtin Volunteers will be involved in the Support a Learner Program at Millen Primary School. Volunteers will work closely with individual students or small groups to enhance literacy skills through tailored classroom activities every Tuesday morning throughout the school term.
Secondly, Perth NRM is organizing the Inter-Uni Beach Clean Up event at Leighton Beach, where students from different universities will collaborate to assist in preserving and enhancing coastal areas. This initiative aims to maintain biodiversity, habitat values, and cleanliness of the beaches, providing volunteers with a hands-on experience on Saturday, 16th August.
Lastly, Wirambi Landcare, a non-profit organization in Perth, focuses on environmental rehabilitation through native species planting and weeding projects. Curtin Volunteers will support these efforts by participating in environmental rehabilitation activities in the City of Melville every fortnight on Wednesday mornings.
These volunteer opportunities not only contribute to the local community but also offer students a chance to develop leadership skills, strengthen connections, and create positive impacts. National Student Volunteer Week serves as a reminder for all students to actively engage in volunteerism and drive change in society.
Whether you are a seasoned volunteer or just beginning your journey, this week encourages you to step up, participate, and be part of the change-making process.
