Funded Projects

The REAPing Rewards small grant program is a national program targeting education. It supports locally-driven projects and programs that directly benefit children and youth (0-18 years) and their educators in rural and remote communities. Grants are up to $10,000.
This program has been made possible thanks to the generous support of our partners:
Yulgilbar Foundation, the Ian Potter Foundation, Third Link, Vincent Fairfax Family Foundation and numerous individuals.
REAPing Rewards supports not-for-profit groups, such as community preschools, playgroups, community based Day Care, Primary and Secondary schools, community support committees (eg Parents & Friends Committees), and staff in delivering quality, positive educational experiences in the early childhood, primary and secondary years.
The program seeks to continue the essence of the former Rural Education Program (REP) and the Rural Early Childhood Education (REACH) program and incorporate new learning from the sector. We invite innovative applications across a broad range of areas, including, but not limited to:
  • Literacy and numeracy
  • Student engagement, leadership and retention
  • Creative and performing arts
  • School readiness
  • Professional Development
  • School leadership and positive attitude to learning
  • Pathways to meaningful employment or further training
  • Communities in school/ parental learning programs
The 2014 program dates:
Round 3: Opens 30th January 2014 and closes 21st March 2014.  Outcomes will be announced in late July 2014.
Round 4: Opens 24 March 2014 and closes 25th August 2014. Outcomes will be announced in late November 2014.
