PAM - Time to update our medical & personal details

Just a reminder to all families to please review your family and child’s personal details and medical information on PAM. If your child has any medical requirements and action plans, these details need to be current for St Mary’s to be able to administer and adhere to.

Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund (CSEF) 

If you have a current Health Care Card or Pension Card, you may be eligible for the Camps/ Sports/ Excursions Fund (CSEF) payment. 

 

The CSEF is an annual payment of $125 to the school to be used towards camps, sports and / or excursion expenses for the benefit of the eligible student. 

 

If you have applied for the CSEF last year, you do not need to complete an application form in 2022 unless there has been a change in your family circumstances. e.g. New student enrolment, your child has started or changed schools, or you did not apply at the same school in 2021.
