Ambassadors Program

Lead the change

Become a VicSRC Ambassador

Are you ready to find your voice, connect with like-minded students and spark change at your school? If you answered yes to any of these, then VicSRC Ambassadors is for you!  

VicSRC Ambassadors are students from across Victoria in years 6-10 who learn and work together to create real, student-led change in their schools and communities. This program is designed to help you connect, collaborate and develop skills in advocacy, leading change and collective action.  

Over the course of two terms, the Ambassadors program will help you develop advocacy skills and build your confidence to take action in tackling an issue at your school that directly affects you and your fellow students.

I highly suggest VicSRC Ambassadors to any students who want to have their voice heard and want to improve their student voice actions. I'm glad I was a part of this program, and I'm going to miss it and everyone involved.
