Community Support Services
ACE Foundation
The ACE Foundation’s vision is to assist students in the City of Casey who are experiencing significant challenges in their education pursuits.
One of their wonderful initiatives is to provide students with free eye checks and glasses at a local optometrist.
If you feel your child would benefit from a vision test and you have a current Health Care Card, please contact Tracey in the Front Office on 8795 9400 for further information.
