Program
The Laperouse Education fund was established in 2017 with a grant of 5000 Euros from the French Parliament.
This was augmented by a fund raising function at the NSW Parliament House hosted by our patron the Hon. Don Harwin MLC.
Our first grant
The Friends of the Laperouse Museum Inc. was honoured to join THALES in a combined THALES-Laperouse Education Fund scholarship of $20,000.00 by contributing a matching $10,000.00.
The grant financed two young Australian students in their honours year of engineering, mathematics and science from the University of Western Sydney (UWS) to enable them to spend a semester at UNICE to advance their learning of electrical and mechanical engineering in the field of acoustics.
