Leavers is all about celebrating their incredible accomplishments by creating memories and building friendships that will be cherished forever. Leavers.com.au is committed to providing a Leavers environment that ensures the end of year celebrations are remembered for all the right reasons.

We are the exclusive booking agent for 100+ Schoolies and Leavers accommodations in destinations throughout Australia and overseas. We strive to deliver experiences that provide both a fun and safe opportunity for students to celebrate their graduation.

So you’ve heard of leavers, but what is it all about? Leavers is a chance for your school leaver to celebrate their independence, academic achievements and ultimately have a great time with their closest friends who may be going their separate ways now that school is over. Each year thousands of year 12 students descend on leavers destinations to celebrate the end of their school years and enjoy what is also the ultimate summer holiday. Students make the journey from around Australia and to the vast majority is considered a rite of passage.

Leavers.com.au bookings offer the following initiatives to support the safety of school leavers during their leavers holiday:

• Official Leavers.com.au Photo ID
• Additional security in main Leavers accommodation*
• 24-hour hotline for both parents and graduates

What an exciting time it is, to see your son or daughter finishing their schooling and looking towards their future. It’s a huge milestone, and to end their school years by taking a trip and celebrating with their closest friends is both a fitting and memorable choice. It can be daunting, the prospect of booking and sending your son or daughter on their leavers trip, perhaps for the first time taking a trip on their own.
