Family Support

CSEF

The Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund provides payments for eligible students to attend activities like:

• school camps or trips
• swimming and school-organised sport programs
• outdoor education programs
• excursions and incursions.

Payments are $125 per Primary School aged student per year student per year. Please contact the office if you qualify for this funding. All details related to this were in the last newsletter.

If you are struggling to meet the costs of school uniforms and shoes for your children, you may be eligible to receive these free or at a discount through State Schools’ Relief.

Families with children in government schools in any year level can receive help if they are facing one or more of the following:

• Health issues resulting in serious financial difficulty
• House fires where school clothing is lost
• Natural disasters
• Serious financial difficulty

Please telephone the office to make an appointment (confidential) with our Wellbeing teacher, Sonya,  who will discuss with you the possibility of this additional support.
