Sports On! Information Night
THE first Sports On! Information Session on Wednesday 8 October 2025 drew strong interest from local clubs and community members, supporting the growth of grassroots sport.
Attendees received practical tips, funding advice, and networking opportunities to strengthen their clubs.
Thank you to all Ninderry sporting clubs who joined us. If your club missed out, please contact my office for the information shared on the night.
Tuckshop Upgrade at Peregian Springs State School
Peregian Springs State School received $81,264 under the 2025-2026 School Subsidy Scheme to upgrade its tuckshop.
The School Subsidy Scheme helps fund school-managed infrastructure projects that improve learning environments and benefit the wider school community.
This additional funding will deliver a more functional space, and I look forward to visiting to see the upgraded tuckshop once the works are completed.
Women’s Career Grants
Queensland women returning to work will soon have access to new support to help ease the financial pressure of getting back into the workforce.
Through the new Women’s Career Grants program, women can apply for up to $5,000 to cover expenses like workwear, childcare, training, tools, transport, or technology.
This $20 million statewide initiative will be delivered with Future Women, who have already supported hundreds through the Jobs Academy program. An extra $4 million will extend the academy into 2026 and 2027, helping 500 more women upskill.
Women can register their interest now at womenscareergrants.com.au, with applications opening on November 3.
This program gives more local women the opportunity to return to work, gain financial independence, and strengthen communities.
