East Doncaster Secondary College annually publishes a College magazine called Courtyard Tales. The 2023 version will feature reflections written by students and teachers, with photos from camps, formals as well as house and student led activities.
The 2023 EDSC Courtyard Tales can now be pre-ordered through an event on Compass called '2023 Courtyard Tales - College Magazine Pre-order' for $24.00. Please note that it was not included in the Parent Payments, so pre-orders must be submitted before 6 October 2023 to order your copy for distribution in Term 4.

Camps, Sports & Excursions Fund (CSEF) 2024
The Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund helps eligible families to cover the costs of school trips, camps and sporting activities.
If you have a valid means-tested concession card, such as a Veterans Affairs Gold Card, Centrelink Health Care Card or Pensioner Concession Card, or are a temporary foster parent, you may be eligible. There is also a special consideration category for asylum seeker and refugee families.
Payment amounts this year are $250 for eligible secondary school students. Payments are made directly to the school to use towards camps, excursions and sporting activities.
It is important that funding made available in 2024 supports students to participate in school trips, camps and sporting activities in the current year. This funding can also be used in conjunction with any funding accrued from previous years.
If you applied for CSEF through our school last year, you do not need to complete an application form this year unless there has been a change in your family circumstances.
If you would like to apply for the first time, please click on the below document, complete and return to the College with a copy of your Health Care/Concession card.
You can also find out more about the program and eligibility, on the Department of Education and Training’s Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund web page.
