Meet Our May CSP Grant Recipient

Since launching the Noel Jones Community Support Program, we’ve proudly contributed over $45,000 across 30 grants to local groups and initiatives. From schools and sports clubs to charities and community organisations, these grants have helped support education, health, and social impact programs throughout our neighbourhoods.

Our May 2025 grant has been awarded to Chirnside Park Primary School, a vibrant and inclusive school dedicated to nurturing lifelong learners in Melbourne’s outer east. With a strong focus on innovation, wellbeing, and community, the school encourages students to thrive through hands-on learning and diverse educational experiences.

“We’re thrilled to receive this grant to grow our veggie patch and create a new Indigenous edible garden and teaching space – giving students hands-on learning in sustainability, STEM and Auslan!”
-Kathryn Ball, STEM Teacher, Chirnside Park Primary School.

If your group is making a difference in the community, we encourage you to apply for our monthly $1,000 Community Support Grant.

Apply now and help us support those who support others.
