Students - Great Mates

Education and socialising are equally important at Great Mates.

WE HELP STUDENTS

Many young people may not know where they want to head in life yet and that’s perfectly okay. Your mentors at Great Mates can work with you on some positive steps to take while you figure out who you want to be. If you’re in school or vocational studies, we can also help support you while you’re attending class or with extra studies as needed.

There’s many ways Great Mates can support you.

We help you build skills.

We have a range of interactive and educational classes that focus on different touchpoints in life, including health and wellbeing. Enjoy learning new recipes or jump into something more active like our multi-sensory, wellbeing-based Drums Alive program.
