WHAT'S HAPPENING

SCHOOL ASSEMBLY

Unfortunately, due to the DET COVID-19 density restrictions, parents are still not able to attend our Assemblies. 

These assemblies are only currently permitted on the proviso that ONLY Echuca East Students and staff attend. No visitors or parents are permitted at this time. We will keep you posted if and when these restriction are amended.

However, we are extremely excited to be another step closer to normal, by being able to once again have all of our students together for our Assembly, with our first one commencing tomorrow. 

We will still upload an assembly highlight reel each week to give you a glimpse of the celebrations.

Thank you for your understanding Easties.

PARENTS ONSITE, QR CODE SYSTEM & FACE MASKS

Parents are not permitted onsite during lockdown.  We will update this information after Wednesday's announcements.

Camps Sports and Excursion Fund 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 and $225 for eligible secondary school students [remove primary/secondary as necessary]. Payments are made direct to the school to use towards expenses relating to camps, excursions and sporting activities for the benefit of your child.

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 54822588 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.
