As Red Frogs, our role is to support a generation of school leavers during what can be an enjoyable, yet at times, physically and emotionally confronting week. Below are the ways Red Frogs assist during Schoolies week at Lorne.
Join the CrewLorne
Lorne is a very popular Schoolies location situated right on the beach.
The Red Frog Lorne crew plays a major role during the Schoolies period to support the schoolies through services including a free shuttle bus, free BBQs, pancake teams, and our Victoria Red Frogs Hotline.
Red Frogs also provide a very popular chill-out zone that's a great space for schoolies to hang out, grab a free hot drink and have genuine conversation. The Red Frog Lorne volunteers are very welcomed by other support services and a fantastic atmosphere exists amongst the team. If you are interested in joining the Red Frog Crew in Victoria, then Lorne is a great place to start.
See below for volunteer requirements, dates, costs and roles.
Frogging at Lorne Schoolies is an awesome opportunity for you to not only get connected with others who have a like-minded passion for the next generation, but to safeguard young people in their time of need.

#Red Frog Roles
Hotel Chaplains
Hotel Chaplains are the core of our Schoolies response. As a chaplain you will be part of a team of 4 to 5 crew members responsible for a hotel 24/7. This is your opportunity to build friendships with the Schoolies by being available to them in their hotels, on the streets or in the Schoolies Hub.
Each team has a team leader as well as a strong network of pastoral carers and location leaders, ensuring you are valued and supported day and night. Being a Hotel Chaplain is a full time commitment for your selected date block.
RF Creative Crew
Whether you’re handy with a camera, have a director’s cap or just love telling a great story - we need you.
As RF Creative we get the privilege of capturing the incredible behind-the-scenes moments and stories as our crew safeguard a generation - if this is up your ally we would love for you to join us. For more info and to express your interest click below.
Red Frog Hotline Crew
The Red Frog Call Centre in Torquay is the hub for the Red Frog movements around Victoria, receiving calls for anything from random acts of pancakes to more serious issues requiring immediate response.
Call centre volunteers are rostered on day, night and late night shifts. As call centre crew you are part of a team of people who will provide directives to the hotel chaplains, allowing them to make maximum impact in supporting Schoolies and get to incidents in time, instead of after time.
