Financial Assistance Information for Parents

Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund

From 2020, the Victorian Government began investing an additional $160.9 million for the CSEF over a 4-year period. The CSEF provides payments to assist eligible families to cover the costs of camps, sporting activities and excursions. Payments are made directly to an eligible student’s school. Schools must use a CSEF payment only for the eligible student and not for that student’s siblings or any other student (except where the eligible student leaves the Victorian education system and there are remaining and unspent funds).

Some common examples of school-organised programs for which a CSEF payment may be used include:

• school camps/trips
• swimming and other school-organised sporting programs
• outdoor education programs
• excursions/incursions.

How to apply

New applicants should contact the school office to obtain a CSEF application form or download from the link below.  If you applied for CSEF at your child's school last year, you do not need to complete an application form this year unless there has been a change in your family circumstances. You only need to complete an application form if any of the following changes have occurred: • new student enrolments; your child has started or changed schools this year. • changed family circumstances; such as a change of custody, change of name, concession card number, or new siblings commencing this year. 

Payment amounts

CSEF payment amount

The CSEF is an annual payment to the school to be used towards camps, sports and/or excursion expenses for the benefit of the eligible student.

•              Primary school student rate: $150.00 per year. 

•              Secondary school student rate: $250.00 per year.

The CSEF is paid directly the school and will be allocated by the school towards camps, sports and/or excursion costs for your child.

Year 7 and Prep students in government schools who receive CSEF funds are also able to get support for school uniforms.  The Prep package will not be available until the end of Term1 2024. Parents or carers who are struggling to provide their child’s uniform may need to make an appointment with the school principal or assistant principal/welfare coordinator to discuss their individual situation.

Road safety around schools

Glen Eira Council has created a short, animated video to share with our school parents and community.  It is 2 and half minute video that explains parking signs, how the school crossing operates and aims to promote safety surrounding your schools.  It encourages students to walk or ride to school too, even if only from a few blocks away, to help ease traffic congestion, and add some physical activity to your morning routine.

Traffic officer are often around the school at peak hour, we are urging the whole community to respect traffic regulations.
