REA Update
Important Update on Our Operations and Upcoming Events
Our funding from the Department of Defence under the existing Schools Pathways Program concluded at the end of June 2024. This has required us to temporarily scale back some operations while we await confirmation of future funding. We have applied for a new Schools Pathways Program grant, and we expect an announcement by the end of November 2024.
Despite these challenges, we are fully committed to supporting state-based organizations in hosting State Final Events through November. Additionally, we remain dedicated to providing full support to the Australian teams competing in the F1 in Schools World Final this month.
We will keep all stakeholders informed as soon as we have more information about future funding.
Thank you for your continued support and understanding during this time. We look forward to continuing our work together to inspire and support young talent across Australia.
