Canteen Price Increase
LCS makes every effort to keep our prices to a minimum and will continue to provide an affordable service to our families. Unfortunately due to supplier price increases we have had to increase prices for some of our items.
Effective from Monday 20th April.
Thanks for your understanding.
Lost Property (End of Term)
Just a quick reminder as we approach the end of the term to check lost property. There is currently a number of containers, cutlery and a few school hats. Please feel free to pop in and check if these belong to your child/ren. This area is located in the main corridor near the entry to the 1/2 area.
Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund
The Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund (CSEF) helps ensure that no student misses out on important, educational, and enjoyable school activities. This fund supports the Victorian Government’s commitment to breaking the link between a student’s background and their educational opportunities.
Schools must use CSEF payments for eligible students’ expenses related to:
- School incursions, excursions and camps
- Swimming programs and other school-organised sporting activities
Please note that CSEF cannot be used for voluntary school charges, stationery, school uniforms, music lessons, or other optional items.
Families holding a valid means-tested concession card or who are temporary foster parents may be eligible. The allowance is paid directly to the school to support eligible activities for your child.
Annual CSEF amount per student:
- $400 for primary and secondary students
How to Apply
Applying for the first time: New applicants should contact the school office to obtain a CSEF application form or download the attached form or alternatively visit; www.education.vic.gov.au/csef
Existing recipients: If you applied for CSEF at your child’s school in 2025, you do not need to reapply in 2026 unless your circumstances have changed.
You will need to submit a new application if:
Your child is newly enrolled or has changed schools in 2026
There has been a change in family circumstances (e.g. custody, name, concession card details)
New siblings have commenced at the school in 2026
If you are unsure, please contact the school office for assistance.
That is all for this week, Lisa Lind
