Schools may apply for upgrade funds
Local schools can now apply for grants of up to $25,000 to create better-equipped learning environments and support students after disruptions caused by Covid-19, according to Member for Robertson Dr Gordon Reid.
"I encourage schools in my electorate to apply for this funding," he said.
He said both government and non-government schools could apply for funding towards small-scale projects as part of the Australian Government's Schools Upgrade Fund.
"School communities on the Central Coast can receive financial support to upgrade air ventilation, build or improve outdoor learning spaces, purchase tablets and laptops, and refurbish classrooms," he said.
Schools can apply for funding at www.education.gov.au/schools-upgrade-fund.
Applications close Friday, February 24.
