Our break times are:
10:55am - 11:35am and 1:45pm - 2:25pm
During this time we ask that you please avoid picking up your child unless you have notified reception prior to these times.
Camps are an amazing opportunity for your students. But they can be stressful for some parents to afford.
Saver Plus encourages parents to save $50 a month (for 10 months). Savings are then matched - a free $500 for education costs, making $1,000 potentially available for the school camp.
Families that start saving in August, will have their savings ready to pay their school camp fees in June 2025.
If there are families that don’t have students attending camp they may also still apply for the program and allocate the funds to other education costs.
Saver Plus will chat with your families about eligibility:
- Health Care or Pensioner Concession Card
- Payment from Centrelink and
- Earning an income (employment, carer’s payment, or child support).
If families would like to check their eligibility and receive a call back please include our enquiry link - https://www.bsl.org.au/services/saving-and-managing-money/saver-plus/ or they’re welcome to call our national number 1300 610 355 and a local coordinator will contact them directly.
Saver Plus helps your families with budgeting for the cost to attend next year’s school camp. Please share our program via email, school newsletter, or social media post. I have attached a flyer for your convenience.
We are also still running regular information sessions for parents/carers every Wednesday that only goes for 15 minutes and have attached information flyer for those sessions as well.
