Chantelle Hollenbach

Student Associations Officer

As an activist, teacher and avid traveler, I immensely enjoy engaging with students from all walks of life. My background is in Adult Learning, Coaching and Organisational Development and I’m passionate about student engagement and learning.

Parts of my lifelong learning journey include an undergraduate degree in Adult Vocational Education (Human Resource Development) from Griffith University in 2009, and the subsequent Master Degree in Education (Leadership and Management) through Queensland University of Technology (QUT) in 2013.

Feel free to connect online or at Southbank Campus (Monday – Wednesday, Thursdays WFH)

Life at GUPSA

We encourage and invite the Griffith community to

We encourage and invite the Griffith community to recognise and celebrate NAIDOC Week 2022.

NAIDOC Week celebrations are held across Australia in the first week of July each year (Sunday to Sunday), to celebrate and recognise the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. This year’s theme - Get up! Stand up! Show up! - encourages all of us to champion institutional, structural, collaborative, and cooperative change while celebrating those who have already driven and led change in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities over generations.

Griffith will be holding a series of Flag Raising events during NAIDOC Week:

📌 Logan campus
Undercroft (L03)
Thursday 7 July
1 pm–2 pm

📌 Nathan campus
Arrival Plaza (N54)
Friday 8 July
10 am–11 am

For more information and to register to attend an event, visit griffith.edu.au/naidoc-week.

You can also support and get to know your local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities through activities and events held across the country. To find out about other events happening in your local area, visit naidoc.org.au.
