Aussie of the Month is a free primary school civics recognition program, delivered by the same network that presents the prestigious Australian of the Year Awards.

Aussie of the Month recognises and celebrates personal endeavour, achievement,  and contribution to the community and reflects the universal values we share as Australians, such as fair go, mateship, respect and inclusion.

​

Aussie of the Month has been operating for over 20 years and is endorsed by the Education Department in every State and Territory in Australia. It is a monthly student award in recognition of civic contribution, rewards behaviours that reflect our responsibilities as community citizens, and has the support of the Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority (ACARA) as a complementary program aligned to the Primary Years' curriculum.
