Grow A Star

What is the Grow A Star Program?

  • A new, exciting youth orientated initiative driven by Compass Housing Services!
  • Focused on sporting programs, music activities and academic opportunities.
  • The first program of its kind designed and operated by a community housing provider.

What does it involve?

  • Weekly group activities – structured and unstructured sports & music coaching, games and fun in your local area.
  • Mentors and role models who provide coaching, direction and set an example for behaviour, participation and skill development.
  • Talent identification – we utilise our expert directors and mentors to identify talented athletes, musicians and students.
  • We then arrange scholarships and talent development programs for these participants, to maximise their gifts and abilities.

How much does it cost?

  • The Grow A Star Program is free!
  • All sporting equipment is provided, along with coaching and refereeing.

How does it work?

  • Eligible participants read the information documents, sign and submit an application form and then begin attending a weekly session in the local area.
  • Compass provides equipment, mentors, coaches and weekly activity plans.
  • Our talent identification team recognise talented participants and arrange opportunities for special sport, music or academic development programs.
