Students across Glasshouse Mountains are on their way to becoming the next generation of environmental champions with new funds from the 2023 Woolworths Junior Landcare Grants program. They join more than 1,100 schools and early learning centres across Australia, who will be awarded grants to help build and develop hands-on environmental learning projects.
Schools in the Glasshouse Mountains who will be awarded a grant of up to $1,000 include Goodstart Early Learning and Mooloolah Primary State School.
Over the years, thousands of schools have used these grants to create interactive projects focused on sustainability and have inspired students to play an active role in the future of their natural environment.
This year, the program also officially included First Nations perspectives projects for the first time. Woolworths and Landcare Australia are excited to award more than 320 grants as part of this year’s funding, to projects that focus on expanding students’ First Nations education and deepening their connection to Country.
