APPA / ASIC Moneysmart Grants

APPA is proud to partner with ASIC’s Moneysmart for teachers program to build the financial capability of primary school students and teachers.

Moneysmart for Teachers is the only national financial literacy program for schools endorsed by state and territory education departments.

Together we are running a grants program to boost teachers and their students’ financial literacy. Previous projects have featured market days, gardens, product development, cafés and financial literacy classrooms.  Projects will be showcased during the annual APPA National Conference.
