The Australian Government has established the School Student Broadband Initiative to provide free home internet to unconnected families until December 2025. The aim is to support children to build their digital skills and narrow the digital divide.

If you have school aged children living in your home, and do not already have broadband connected to your home, you may be eligible. Please contact the National Referral Centre on 1800 954 610 or visit the website at https://www.nbnco.com.au/campaigns/school-student-broadband-initiative before December 2024 to check your eligibility.

As always, please contact Housing Trust direct to have any alterations made to your home, including NBN connection. If you need assistance to access this program, please call Housing Trust direct and one of our friendly team will assist.

Warmest regards,

Housing Trust
