Nominations now open for Active Education Australia Life and Fellow membership honours

Active Education Australia (AEA) proudly invites its members to nominate outstanding volunteers for its prestigious Life and Fellow memberships. These honours celebrate the passion, dedication, and sustained commitment of those who have significantly contributed to the organisation’s mission and growth.

Celebrating the heart of AEA, our volunteers

At the core of Active Education Australia’s success are its volunteer members—individuals who generously give their time and energy to advance the organisation’s purpose. Recognising these exceptional contributions is not just a tradition but a vital part of AEA’s identity. Honouring those who go above and beyond reminds us that AEA is a collective effort, built on shared dedication and a vision for a stronger future.

AEA Life Member

This is the highest and most prestigious accolade AEA offers. Life Membership recognises outstanding and sustained service over many years. It is reserved for those whose long-term commitment has profoundly shaped the organisation.

AEA Fellow

Fellows have made a significant impact on AEA’s reputation and activities. Their commitment shines through leadership roles such as office bearer positions, committee work, projects, and events. Beyond their direct involvement with AEA, Fellows support colleagues in ways that further the organisation’s purpose, making a lasting difference over time.

Why nominate?

By nominating a deserving volunteer, you help ensure that their dedication is acknowledged and celebrated. These awards not only highlight individual achievements but also inspire our entire community to continue working together toward shared goals.
