Choosing what to do after High School/TAFE is a big decision.

Spending a year at a-GAPe Challenge is one of the best decisions you can make - a gap year bridging the transition from school to an apprenticeship, higher education, full time work, or whatever else life brings. But it is a big decision to make!

Here's a few ways you can consider if a-GAPe Challenge is for you (we think it will be!):

Join an Info Session

Either Online or at a location in the Western Region, join us and other like-minded people considering a-GAPe Challenge to hear more about the program, listen to past and present participants and their experience, and ask any questions you may have. Have a look at some of the Find Out More Info Sessions we are running here.

Anyone - school students/school leavers, parents, ministers, school chaplains - are more than welcome at these sessions.

Book a 1-to-1 Discovery Meeting

a-GAPe Challenge is participant-shaped - we tailor your gap year to your individual passions, skills, and the needs of your local church. You may have questions about your gap year, and see if a-GAPe Challenge is for you.

Book in a 1-to-1 Discovery Meeting with a member of the a-GAPe Challenge Team (minister/chaplain most welcome as well), to have a time to discuss what a leader-discipling gap year would look like for you - click here to book
