Programme Details

The Youth Enterprise Trust assists disadvantaged young Australians (16 to 24 years) to develop:

motivation and action to pursue responsible and
fulfilling vocations which are true to each individual
and make essential and creative contributions to the community
a deeper self-understanding
and self-reliance
a special appreciation of Australia's
cultural and environmental heritage

The Trust achieves these aims through providing financial scholarships to undertake a Programme with three sequential and integrated Phases:

  • A uniquely designed Wilderness Experience at Saddler Springs, a remote cattle property in the Carnarvon Ranges, Central Queensland, immediately followed by;
  • The Kurrajong Phase based at Woodstock, the Trust's home on a farm property near Mt Tamborine, Sth East Qld, immediately followed by;
  • The Off-Sider Phase.
