CSEF Information

Financial Assistance Information for Parents 

Camps, Sports & Excursions Fund (CSEF).

Every Victorian child should have access to the world of learning opportunities that exist beyond the classroom. The Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund, will ensure that no student will miss out on the opportunity to join their classmates for important, educational and fun activities.

School camps provide children with inspiring experiences in the great outdoors, excursions encourage a deeper understanding of how the world works and sports teach teamwork, discipline and leadership. All are part of a healthy curriculum. CSEF will be provided by the Victorian Government to assist eligible families to cover the costs of school trips, camps and sporting activities.

If you hold a valid means-tested concession card or are a temporary foster parent, you may be eligible for CSEF. The allowance will be paid to the school to use towards expenses relating to camps, excursions, or sporting activities for the benefit of your child. The annual CSEF amount per student will be:

• $256 for secondary school students.

How to Apply:

You will need to provide a copy of your current Health Care Card with the application. 

Parent application close 28 June 2025.

Compass CSEF Payments & School Savings Bonus

We are aware that the CSEF function has disappeared off Compass for paying events and are have been in discussions with Compass to rectify this problem. We are hoping it will be fixed by next week.  We are also in discussions with Compass about adding the SSB as a payment option for events.  Updates will be posted on Compass. In the meantime, the General Office is contacting families via email prior to Compass Event deadlines about how to pay with SSB. We appreciate your patience. Please contact the General Office if you have any questions:
