There are many!

www.volunteer.com.au is pretty good. There is currently a HR policy position on there somewhere with the Benevolent Society. Even if you don't have HR experience, you can always ask them to take you on as a junior and just tell them that you are really keen on volunteering. This usually works with most ngos as they are pretty keen on volunteers and need all the extra help they can get.

Also, if you go usyd career website, there are sometimes volunteer HR positions listed there as well. (That's how I found my current position)

Just google 'volunteering' and a number of stuff should come up.
My advice, check regularly! Cause there may be nothing today, but there might be a great position next week.

Oh awesome KK, thanks heaps! I'll def look into it, plus it looks good on your resume, volunteering and all, plus the experience.

i always struggle with going over the word limit. normally i end up having to delete whole sections and restructure the entire essay in the twenty minutes before i leave home the day it's due. and yet i never learn to do the things early.

...why would you study shakespeare in a victorian literature course? there's about a two-century gap there.

I have no idea? I opened a bunch of outlines for english and Victorian Lit was the only one I remembered besides the Shakespeare one. And now I can't find which class it was. Plus, I've always been horrid with dates.

(Oh wait, just found it. It's Love&Desire in Early Modern English.)

And lol Rafy, my english teacher went pink when she quoted that and she was like, 50yrs old.
