Reflecting on progress. Learning from challenges. Building on success.
SAA’s National Committee came together in Adelaide on 19–20 October to take stock of the past year’s achievements and challenges, review our strategic objectives and focus on what comes next: continued growth, stronger connections and greater value for our members.
Amongst many other topics, we explored:
🔹 Continuing to strengthen the sector’s voice and influence
🔹 Delivering practical value for members
🔹 The ongoing importance of NPAS in recognising quality student accommodation
🔹 Engaging operational teams and emerging leaders
🔹 Connecting the sector through events and shared learning
🔹 Growing memberships, sponsorships and meaningful partnerships
At the heart of these discussions is a shared purpose: supporting quality student accommodation that helps students feel safe, supported and connected throughout their education.
And connection wasn’t confined to the workshop. On Monday evening, Drinks with Friends brought together old friends and new. A warm thank you to everyone who joined us. It was lovely to catch up with familiar faces, meet new colleagues and hear what’s happening across the sector. Your company and conversations made it a wonderful way to round off our first day in Adelaide.
It’s been a busy year for everyone, and we’re grateful to our National Committee for the time, energy and expertise they continue to contribute to SAA. Their commitment helps keep our work moving forward for members and the wider sector.
