The Trust has a long commitment to taking on student placements, both secondary in work experience capacity and tertiary as field placement. The VWT endeavors to match each student's academic requirements with current Trust projects either starting a new project or continuing on an existing.
Current Student
Placement Projects

To complete a student placement at the Trust, a letter from the school or university is required, outlining the course and student requirements and addressed to Mary Crooks, Executive Director. If resources at the VWT allow, placement is quickly organized.

The following secondary schools have placed students at the VWT for work experience purposes:

PrincessHill Secondary College
Strathcona Baptist Girls School
Melbourne Girls Secondary College

Our tertiary students have come from a range of universities:

Deakin University
Victoria University
Latrobe University (see Fiona Link-Freeman’s paper here )
University of Melbourne (see Cassidy Prent’s paper here )
RMIT (See Kate Szweczyk's paper on "The Impacts of Detention on Family relationships" here )
