Traffic Safety in Teardrop Car Park

Please be reminded of safe traffic practices, especially in the Teardrop car park:

• 20kph maximum speed limit.
• Students may never exit vehicles from cars that are not correctly parked in a marked parking space. (No roadside drop-offs.)
• Use of the Kiss&Go parking spaces (marked with yellow cones) between 8.15am – 8.45am is strictly for dropping off Year 10-12 students. Parents / carers should not park and leave the vehicle but should exit this area as soon as students have left the vehicle.
• When using the Kiss&Go Zone between 8.15am – 8.45am, exit from the property is via Gate 2, not Gate 1. This allows a smoother flow for Prep to Year 9 traffic exiting at Gate 1.

Thank you for your cooperation, for the safety of our students, and as a courtesy to other parents / carers.

Camps, Sports & Excursions Fund (CSEF) – Information for Parents and Concession Card Holders

CSEF funding is made available by the Victorian Government to assist eligible families to cover the costs of camps, sport, and excursions, which are included in fees that are billed to your school account.

If you hold a valid means-tested concession card, (e.g. Centrelink Health Care Card, Veterans' Affairs Gold Card, or Pensioner Concession Card), or you are a temporary foster parent, you may be eligible for CSEF funding.

The annual CSEF amount per student is:

1.         $125 for primary school students

2.         $225 for secondary school students

For more information about CSEF, and to download the CSEF application form, visit https://www.education.vic.gov.au/about/programs/Pages/csef.aspx. An application form may also be obtained from the College Office. Application forms must be lodged with the College by 24 June 2022.

Please note that the College is required to sight any relevant concession cards that you may hold to support eligibility for the CSEF. Therefore, please either bring your concession card with you, if you are dropping off your application to the Admin Office, or email a copy of your concession card with your application to Mrs Dawn Pryor, Accounts Receivable Officer, email: dpryor@oxley.vic.edu.au. 

Upon approval by the Victorian Government, the allowance will be paid to the College, which will then be applied to your school account.

Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Mrs Dawn Pryor, by email, or by telephone on 9727 9900.

We are now accepting enrolments for 2024 and beyond (particularly Prep and Year 7) and look forward to hearing from you if you wish to enrol your child(ren). 

Notice to Withdraw

Parents are reminded of their obligation to give the College one full term’s notice, in writing to the Principal, if their children are not continuing at Oxley Christian College. The lack of one term’s notice will result in the payment of one term’s Tuition Fees.

It is also a legal requirement for you to inform us of the school to which your child’s enrolment is transferring.
