Growing Good Gardens Grant

Yates Gardening and Life Education Australia are encouraging young people to get out into the garden to grow and learn healthy habits.  They are providing up to $1,000 to 15 schools, pre-schools and community groups to help create a garden space where kids can learn healthy habits and improve their physical and mental well-being. This could be a great opportunity for our Achievement Program schools.

    • personal safety
  • Level of hands-on student involvement in the project
  • Level of involvement of the broader school community or local community
  • Feasible and technically-sound project activities
  • Realistic and detailed project budget
  • Integration into the school curriculum or youth/community group program to maximise environmental learning
  • Applicants are encouraged to use the Yates Kids Gardening website for information and inspiration – yates-kids-gardening.com
