This annual program, now in its 29th year, seeks to promote understanding and informed discussion amongst young Australians about the Australian Constitution and system of government. The NSW Schools Constitutional Convention includes a keynote and group discussions on the selected topic. At the conclusion of the day, delegates peer select 30 of their number to attend the National Constitutional Convention to be held in Canberra in 2024. 

Principals are invited to nominate one Year 11 (incoming Year 12) student from their school to be considered for participation in the 2023 NSW Schools Constitutional Convention. Unfortunately, multiple nominations cannot be accepted.
