Young Endeavour Youth Scheme

Dear Education Partner,   

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. 

 

Since 1988 over 14,000 young Australians from across Australia have sailed in Young Endeavour, taking part in the inspiring youth development experience that helps participants develop self-awareness and confidence, and gives them an opportunity to grow their teamwork and leadership skills through sail training and self-development activities. 

 

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. 

 

View the voyage dates.

Read about the COVID-19 safe voyaging measures that have been developed to ensure youth crew safety. 

 

Applications are now open at www.youngendeavour.gov.au. Financial assistance is available to eligible candidates.  

 

We would appreciate your assistance including this information on your website, newsletter or social media, or otherwise distributing amongst your staff, students and networks. 

 

Thank you for your support of  the Young Endeavour Program.
