Education funding
Education funding to local schools
Education is a key priority of the Trust and every year a large portion of our funding is allocated to education.
We provide annual funding to Kuranui College, Greytown Primary School, Greytown Kindergarten and Greytown Early Years.
This funding is awarded to the schools following an application process generally held in October where each school submits applications for initiatives and projects for the following school year.

As part of our ongoing commitment to education, the Trust has provided the following funding to support 2026 initiatives:
Greytown School – $23,000 to improve outdoor learning environments
Kuranui College – $10,000 for Chromebooks for students in need
Greytown Kindergarten – $4,000 for sessions with Martin the Toymaker
Greytown Early Years – $4,000 for Martin the Toymaker sessions, music sessions, and the adventurers / Explorers programme
We are especially pleased to continue supporting Martin the Toymaker, whose carpentry-based sessions introduce children to hands-on making, creativity, problem-solving, and the joy of working with real tools. These experiences fit beautifully alongside the early years curriculum, helping nurture fine motor skills, confidence, and imaginative thinking.
