Woolworths launches new campaign via M&C Saatchi to celebrate return of Earn & Learn

Woolworths has launched a new campaign via M&C Saatchi Sydney, which is encouraging Australians to nominate their local school or early learning centre for the inaugural Inspiring Schools Awards, as the supermarket celebrates the return of Earn & Learn.

The popular Woolworths Earn & Learn program helps schools and early learning centres obtain a variety of educational resources, including sporting, mathematics, arts, science and technology equipment.

Says Michael James, director of stores, Woolworths: “We are proud to bring  Earn & Learn back to schools in 2017. At Woolworths our aim is to be an active contributor to the local community and we know from previous campaigns that  Earn & Learn impacts schools and early learning centres in a positive way, by providing them with much needed equipment.”

The last time the program ran, 16,000 educational facilities were supported with the delivery of more than 450,000 individual items. The most popular resources category redeemed was mathematics equipment, closely followed by arts & crafts and sporting equipment.

To support the program, Woolworths customers can earn a sticker for every $10 spent in store or online until stocks last over the next two months. The stickers can then be put onto a downloadable sticker sheet or simply placed in the Collection Box at the local school or Woolworths store. The Woolworths  Earn & Learn program co-ordinator at the school can then redeem points for the equipment they need most.

Says James: “We also love seeing the great work schools undertake to inspire our future generation and we’ll be recognising and celebrating their efforts also during the campaign with our very first  Inspiring Schools Awards.”
