CSEF applications

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 $125 for eligible primary school students. Payments are made direct to the school to use towards expenses relating to camps, excursions and sporting activities for the benefit of your child. 

It is important that funding made available in 2022 supports students to participate in school trips, camps and sporting activities this year rather than being held for future years. This funding can also be used in conjunction with any funding accrued from previous years. Please note these activities will only take place if they meet COVIDSafe requirements.

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 contact the school office on 9874 6381 and ask for an application form. 

You can also download the form, and find out more about the program and eligibility, on the Department of Education and Training’s Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund web page.

Check with the school office if you are unsure, and please return completed forms to the school office as soon as possible.

Second-hand Uniform Shop

Our wonderful second-hand uniform shop will be available outside the office foyer/main entrance during the following times this term:

Weekly Monday 8:15am-8:45am & Wednesday 8:45am-9:15am

Monthly Monday afternoon 3:40pm-4:10pm (first Monday of the month) 

(Term 1: March 7th and April 4th)

We’re looking for more families to be involved in the social and supportive second hand uniform community, particularly as our current participants’ children will be moving on in 2023.  If you have an interest or are curious about being involved please let the school office know or stop on by when we’re open and introduce yourself to Rachel and Katy.

Thank you, 

The Office Team
