Small Environmental Projects Fund
Council’s Small Environmental Projects Fund supports the community to deliver sustainability projects and participate in environmental education.
As part of the 2022/23 round of the Fund public schools were invited to submit applications to participate in the Solar my School program.
Flinders Public School was selected to participate, excluding system and installation costs. The school will receive:
• An independent assessment by an expert solar consultant to recommend the best size and location for solar panels
• An estimate of the system costs and savings
• Help with accessing grant funding to pay for the system
• Assistance with working with the NSW Department of Education
• Presentations to school P&Cs and boards
• Curriculum-linked solar educational resources
• Help with promotion to the wider community
The next round of the Small Environmental Projects Fund is anticipated to open again in mid-2023.
For more information about the Small Environmental Projects Fund please contact Council's Environment Team on 4221 6111 or email sustainability@shellharbour.nsw.gov.au.
Solar my School was jointly founded by Randwick, Waverley and Woollahra Councils, and is now licensed to other Councils for supporting schools in their areas.
