Healthy School Communities

THE HEALTHY SCHOOL COMMUNITIES GRANT CLOSED ON 22 DECEMBER 2006

The Healthy School Communities team is continuing to accept Statutory Declaration forms from successful schools.

Under the Building a Healthy, Active Australia initiative, Australian primary and secondary schools were offered an opportunity to be involved in a grants program to promote healthy eating. The $15 million Healthy School Communities program invited a non-government organisation linked to the school (such as Parents and Citizens/ Friends Association, school auxiliaries or canteen groups) to apply for a grant of up to $1,500 (GST exclusive).

The conditions of grants specified that the funds would need to be acquitted through a Statutory Declaration. Information about this process is outlined below.
