Funding: up to $1500
Closing: one month prior to planned activity taking place.
NSW Farmers’ Association is currently rolling out a Federal Government funded grant referred to as Educating Kids about Agriculture: Kids to Farms. The grant is funded by the Department of Agriculture, Water and the Environment. The aim of the program is to increase engagement between primary producers and primary school students in order to improve students’ understanding of the Australian agriculture industry.
Applications are invited for funding up to $1500 (excluding GST) per school. Larger grants will be considered based on merit and value.
To apply for funding for your school as part of the Kids to Farms program, please fill out this form and return it, and all supporting documents to kidstofarms@nswfarmers.org.au a minimum of one month prior to the planned activity taking place.
This school funding grant will help to remove some of the financial barriers that may be preventing primary schools in NSW from taking part in excursion opportunities, where students can develop their understanding of food and fibre production systems.
