$1,000 Environmental Grants for Schools and Early Learning Centres

Landcare Australia

Grants of up to $1,000 are on offer to schools and early learning centres across Australia for environmental projects.

The 2022 Woolworths Junior Landcare Grants will fund activities that focus on sustainable food production, improving waste management practices or enhancing native habitats.

Types of projects that can be funded include creating or expanding a vegetable or bush tucker garden, setting up a compost bin or worm farm, and restoring native habitat on the school grounds or in the local area.

“These hand-on projects teach primary school students and children in early learning centres about living sustainably and how to care for the natural environment,” said Dr Shane Norrish, CEO Landcare Australia.

“We encourage schools and early learning centres that haven’t applied before to take up this opportunity. Schools and early learning centres that have received a grant in previous rounds are also welcome to apply – they could expand on their previous project or do something new,” he said.

Applications for the 2022 Woolworths Junior Landcare Grants close on 18 March 2022.
