Success Week - Flinders University Students

Celebrating the success of our Student Volunteers

This semester we're celebrating the success of our incredible Student Volunteers — individuals who go above and beyond to support their peers, build community, and make a real impact across our University.

Volunteering at Flinders is more than just giving back — it’s about gaining valuable experience, building professional networks, and developing the skills that employers are looking for. Whether you’re supporting classmates, representing your peers, mentoring others, or helping to run events, every volunteer role contributes to our thriving campus community.

Celebrating Student Volunteers at Flinders

In a student’s words, success is:

‘Getting a degree and graduating with a wealth of knowledge, hands on experience and a job. Being happy, healthy and socially fulfilled while studying, with access to services to foster that success and studying in an inclusive environment that serves your needs.”

You can find out more in our Student Success Report.

Why should you get involved?

Volunteering helps you:

Develop leadership, communication, and teamwork skills
Boost your resume and career readiness
Connect with staff, students, and industry partners
Make a positive impact on your community
Discover new passions and interests

Whether you have one hour a week or want to take on a larger role, there’s a volunteer opportunity for you.
