Remembrance Day Education Grants

We are delighted to announce that the Forestville RSL sub-Branch has agreed to facilitate two annual grants from the Remembrance Day Education Grants Program (EGP).

  1. EGP Yr 6 – students entering Year 7 and
  2. EGP Yr 12 – students entering University

We seek your support for the Program by asking you to advertise it in your School newsletter.

Both grants are worth $2,000 and are open to eligible applicants from your School who will be entering either Year 7 in 2024 (EGP Yr 6) or University in 2024 (EGP Yr 12).  The grants are to assist with the cost of school uniforms and/or computer equipment as they transition to either high school or University.
