camps and online forums.

About

What is Reaching for Stars?

Reaching for Stars is a program that has been co-designed with girls aged 14-18. We support young women to achieve their dreams by developing friendship networks, work-ready skills and information about how to safely navigate pathways and challenges that young people face today.

We do this through group learning opportunities, online forums and fun activities including excursions and camps.

We believe the best way to learn is through hands-on activities organised by young people (and supported by us) that are fun as well as building up employable skills to put on your resume.

At the centre of our work is friendship – meeting new friends and supporting each other to reach our goals. We also learn practical and job-ready skills as we plan and hold our school holiday activities, normally held over two days. Previous activities have included planning a disco for other young people, going to visit the art gallery and universities, and a visit to the Adelaide Zoo. The program aims to increase confidence, encourage girls to speak up and to support them in Reaching for Stars in whatever fields are important to them. We believe in them and we want to help make sure that they believe in themselves – no matter what comes their way.
