Traffic around our school

As our students return to school it is timely that we reinforce the pickup and drop off protocols which will ensure students’ safety. Students can be dropped in the Kiss and Go area along Monash Drive, at the footbridge on Brandon Park Drive or in the car park of the Monash Community Centre which is at the rear of the Monash Gardens Retirement Village. It is also advisable for those who use Monash Drive that they plan their route and avoid the necessity of doing a U-turn at the roundabout.

Please consider alternative routes that can be used when driving your son to school. If traveling down Springvale Rd, use the service lane and drop your son at Clunies Ross Crescent. The exercise is beneficial and traffic congestion could be avoided. Perhaps use the side streets around Monash Drive, this may allow you to continue your journey without competing for parking along Monash Drive itself. In the short time that school has returned there have been many concerns regarding child safety and potential accidents. Please show care to all users of the roads around Mazenod.

College Fee Accounts

The Annual College Fee Accounts have been emailed to all families this week.

To assist with managing school fee payments, a new Payments Portal (via MazCom) has been introduced this year.

All families must select a payment plan via the Portal by 14th February 2025. If no plan is set up by the due date, the full account balance will be due by 28th February 2025.

More details can be found in the attachment included with the College Fee Invoice email.

Please contact the College Finance Department if you have any inquiries or have not yet received your account.

Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund (CSEF) and School Saving Bonus (SSB)

Families holding a valid means-tested concession card or those who are temporary foster parents may be eligible for the Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund (CSEF) of $256.00.

If you received CSEF at Mazenod College last year, you do not need to submit a new application for 2025 unless your family circumstances have changed. For students new to Mazenod College in 2025, a new application is required. CSEF form can be found in the attachment included with the College Fee Invoice email.

For families whose sons were enrolled at Mazenod College in both 2024 and 2025, a $400.00 School Saving Bonus (SSB) will automatically apply to your first school fee invoice. If you are newly eligible for CSEF in 2025, both CSEF and SSB credits ($656.00 in total) will be applied to your account once funds are received from the State Government.

Students over 16 years old who hold a concession card should contact the College Finance Department for a special CSEF application form.
