Mooroopna Golf Tournament

School Sport Victoria and Golf Australia are proud to inform schools that the SSV Primary Golf Tournament is to be held at the Mooroopna Golf Course on Monday 12th September 2022. 

This is a perfect opportunity for students to participate in a shortened 9-hole course to represent their school. No experience or equipment is necessary. Equipment can be borrowed on the day. Place holders will then qualify to compete in the regional finals and then the state finals if they qualify at the regional finals. 

The entries are open to students in year levels 3 through to 6 enrolled at a School Sport Victoria member school. 

Get Active Kids Voucher Program

This year, the Victorian Government’s Get Active Kids Voucher Program has a new model that will operate as a ‘pre-approval’ and ‘reimbursement’ system. 

Applicants can now apply for a voucher in advance of registering with an approved activity provider. This will reduce the upfront costs of membership and registration fees required under the previous reimbursement model. 

Eligible families may be able to receive up to $200 each, per child, per round to assist with the cost of membership and registration fees, uniforms and equipment.

To be eligible, children need to be aged 0 to 18, a Victorian resident, named on a valid Commonwealth Health Care Card or Pensioner Concession Card and named on a valid Medicare Card at the time of application. 

The program will also provide a special consideration stream to support temporary or provisional visa holders, undocumented migrants and international students aged 0 to 18 years at the time of application. 

To be eligible under the program, the activity or program must be affiliated to a Sport and Recreation Victoria recognised Victorian State Sporting Association (SSA) or Victorian State Sport and Recreation Body (SSRB).

Information on how to apply for a voucher, eligibility criteria and how to become a registered activity provider is available on the Get Active Kids Voucher website

Applications for the new round will open on Monday 7 March 2022.
