Leeuwin Ocean Adventure Foundation Scholarship

In partnership with the Leeuwin Ocean Adventure Foundation, we offer exclusive scholarship opportunities for young Western Australians to develop key life skills aboard the STS Leeuwin II leadership voyages each year.

The scholarships are five zones throughout our network: the Midwest Zone, Central Wheatbelt Zone, Albany Zone, Esperance Zone and the City of Kwinana.

Run by not-for-profit organisation the Leeuwin Ocean Adventure Foundation, the week-long voyage aims to challenge and inspire young people to realise their personal potential through the unique medium of tall ship sailing.

The scholarship provides the opportunity for young people to engage in all aspects of the program and step out of their comfort zone through challenges such as climbing the 33-metre main mast and working aloft, navigating the ship and taking the helm, standing watch while sailing at night, setting and handling sails and much more. The voyage will also enable the successful scholarship recipients to surround themselves with active new friends, develop skills for the workplace and to test their personal limits. For students in year’s 10-12, participation goes toward your WA Certificate of Education as part of your WA Statement of Student Achievement.
