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 Rye.
Join the CrewRye
Rye is one of the quieter, more chilled out Schoolies locations in Victoria, with Schoolies spread from Dromana to Portsea.
It makes Schoolies on the Mornington Peninsula the place to come and just relax with your mates. Red Frogs provide a free midnight BBQ on the foreshore as well as dinner cook-ups which have been hugely popular with hungry Schoolies. All of the services that Red Frogs provide combined with amazing, fun and committed volunteers make for a winning combination!
See below for volunteer requirements, dates, costs and roles.
We need your help to safeguard a generation in Rye!

#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.
