Schools

Shire Salvos offers a range of opportunities for school communities to engage with The Salvation Army and act for social justice. We warmly invite you to:

Connect with Shire Salvos and contribute to our on the ground community work
Engage in our experiential and service-learning opportunities
Invite us to your school or visit us in person to engage in educational workshops, and learn how we respond to important social issues
Partner with us, fundraise or volunteer

Introducing young people to concepts of social justice early allows them to inform their own values, lets them know they’re part of something bigger and inspires them to get involved. By developing an appreciation of the world around them, young people have an opportunity to learn that, whatever they’re going through, they’re not alone.

Support

We offer tailored social services and programs that support student well-being, resilience, and personal growth. Shire Salvos can support your school community with various of our social services and programs. Our Positive Lifestyle Program (PLP) offered in High Schools, helps students develop tools in eight key areas: self-awareness, anger, depression and loneliness, stress, grief and loss, assertiveness, self-esteem, and future direction. Our breakfast program, ensures no one goes hungry for breakfast or at school. Reconnect is an individual counselling service for young persons aged between 12-18.
