Camps Sports Excursions Fund (CSEF) 2017
CSEF is $225 per student, payable again in March 2017. If you had lodged an application at RSC in 2016, you do not need to apply again. I have automatically lodged an application on your behalf. If you are a new family to the College, or have recently become eligible for a Centrelink Health Care Card, you may be eligible to apply. Attached is an application form to complete and return to the Administration Office before 28th February.

School Council Meeting
The first Council meeting for 2017 kicked off with a walking tour of the works and construction sites inside the library and the new Junior School building. After being suitably impressed, council heard that the works are progressing with no major delays, and that there is a possibility of some extra funds from the Department of Education to allow paving, landscaping and drainage, additional to the original plans.
Council discussed the progress of the College’s Annual Implementation Plan, approved the overnight Unit 1 Geography Bushfire Camp, and discussed proposals for new extra-curricular activities during and at the end of the school year, pending further information.
There was discussion about changes to DET policy, updates about the ongoing plans for the Great Ryrie Street Intersection works, and an update on completed works undertaken by the facilities subcommittee.
