as follows:
- $700.00 for travel to Australia and South Pacific Islands;
and
- $1,500 for travel beyond Australia/Pacific Islands
- Travel grants for teams be capped at $10,000
- To increase limits for the annual Education Round as follows and restrict preschools/schools to only one grant per calendar year for such purpose(s) as each preschool/school may determine:
- Preschools $2,500
- Primary/Intermediate $5,000
- Secondary $10,000
Grants Process:
- The grants process consists of four General Rounds each year, supplemented by one Educational Round with closing dates as follows:
- 28 February
- 31 May
- 31 July (Education Round)
- 31 August

- Applications outside the above grants rounds will be considered monthly only where there is an urgency which has arisen due to unforeseen circumstances. These will be limited to a maximum of $5,000 other than in exceptional circumstances.
- Applications for ‘major grants’, ie one of over $100,000 that offers an enduring benefit for a substantial sector of the community, may be made within the four General Grants Rounds each year.
