HAVE YOU APPLIED FOR CSEF?

The Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund (CSEF) provides payments for eligible students to attend activities like:

• school camps or trips
• swimming and school-organised sport programs
• outdoor education programs
• excursions and incursions.

Applications for 2019 are open and will close on 28 June 2019 (end of term 2).

Payments are:

• $225 per year for eligible secondary school students

Eligibility:

On the first day of term one (29 January 2019) or the first day of term two (23 April 2019), a parent or legal guardian of a student must:

• be an eligible beneficiary of one of these cards:
• OR they must be a temporary foster parent
• OR the student is 16 years or older and holds a valid concession card (such as a Youth Allowance Health Care Card)
• AND the parent or legal guardian must submit an application by the due date.

Parents who receive a carer allowance on behalf of a child, or any other benefit or allowance not income tested by Centrelink, are not eligible for the CSEF unless they also comply with the above.

Eligibility will be determined when the parent’s concession card successfully validates with Centrelink on either the first day of term one or term two.

If the eligible card is in the name of the student, the fund is only granted to that student, not their siblings.

Please contact the office to apply if eligible.
