ASTA School Grants

The Australian Science Teachers Association (ASTA), with funding assistance from the Australian Government, provides grants for school-initiated National Science Week activities.

These grants are available to all Australian schools (Preschool to Year 12) who complete a valid application. All applications and the amounts awarded are judged by their comparative merit.

The grants are designed to support teachers and schools to deliver engaging STEM events and activities that align with the National Science Week vision which is to highlight the positive impact STEM has on our society and world.

Here’s what you need to do:

  • Develop a great idea for a suitable program and work out your costs.
  • Apply online for a grant up for up to $500 to contribute toward the cost of running your activity.
  • Conduct your STEM-related activity or event during National Science Week.
  • Involve your class or your whole school and even your neighbouring school/s and wider community.
