Creating and Managing Your SVA Account

An integral aspect of the SVA Service Award is that students are self-managers. It is a trust based model where students are responsible for managing their volunteering and the logging of their hours. While it will be on the students setting up their own accounts, Mrs. Heald will be able to assist you if you get stuck or have any questions. 

There are 2 ways that students can access the SVA Service Award platform - The SVA app and the SVA Website.

Students can download the SVA App (Student Volunteer Army) directly to their devices through the App Store or Google Play Store. 

Once the app is downloaded, students click the Sign Up button at the bottom of the screen and are guided through the following pages. It is important that students read the school name carefully and select the correct school.

Signing up through the website follows the same process. Simply visit https://volunteer.sva.org.nz/ and click the 'Create an Account' button. Fill out all sections and the account will be ready to go.
