We offer the SVA Service Award programme
SVA Service Award
Kia tūao,e tu ki te ao. Be a volunteer and stand up in the world.
The SVA Service Award is a national framework that recognises the volunteering efforts of Year 7-13 students. Available free to groups or individuals, students are awarded a pin for initial volunteering hours and log additional efforts online or on the SVA App. School, community and in-home volunteering all qualify and are combined into a single record of service.
Log. Earn. Build. Use.
The Service Award follows the model of Log. Earn. Build. Use.
Students Log hours using the SVA App or website. They Earn pins when the reach volunteering hour milestones. Build a Summary of Service to Use in their university/job/student leadership applications.
The Pins
As students log hours in the SVA App, they are awarded pins. Pins are awarded at school assembly.
Summary of Service

It includes all details of student volunteering including hours volunteered and pins achieved. This can be used alongside university applications, CVs, scholarship applications etc.
