For schools
The schools page has extensive information for bushfire-affected schools.
Of particular interest to parents will be the section about "Funding to Help Schools and Families".
It includes information on support that's available to help get kids back to school after the bushfires. The section lists the 15 Local Government Areas where support is available through State Schools' Relief.
