Camps, Sports and Excursion Fund Applications

The Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund helps eligible families to cover the costs of school trips, camps and sporting activities.

If you have a valid means-tested concession card, such as a Veterans Affairs Gold Card, Centrelink Health Care Card or Pensioner Concession Card, or are a temporary foster parent, you may be eligible. There is also a special consideration category for asylum seeker and refugee families.

Payment amounts this year are $125 for eligible primary school students. Payments are made direct to the school to use towards expenses relating to camps, excursions and sporting activities for the benefit of your child.

If you applied for CSEF through our school last year, you do not need to complete an application form this year, unless there has been a change in your family circumstances.

If you would like to apply for the first time, you can download the form here. Forms are also available at the office.

You can also download the form, and find out more about the program and eligibility, on the Department of Education and Training’s Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund web page.

Please return completed forms to the office as soon as possible.

Confidential Information

A notice titled 'Confidential student information' was sent home with the eldest child on Monday.

Please carefully read and complete the confidential attached form (on both sides), in order for the school to update our records of student details. If there is any information that is incorrect, please write the updated information next to each item where necessary.

Could you please return the form to the front office as soon as possible. Even if there are no changes, could you please return the form to the school indicating this. 

Thank you to those parents/carers who have already returned them.

Head Lice

It has come to our attention that some students in the school may have head lice. We seek your cooperation in checking your child/ren's hair, and in those instances where head lice or eggs are found, treating their hair. 

Health regulations requires that when a child has head lice, they should not return to school until the live head lice have been treated. 

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us in the office.

We understand head lice can be a sensitive issue and we are committed to maintaining your confidentiality.

.

Lunchboxes

We have had an increasing amount of students coming to the office at lunchtime and telling us they have eaten their lunch at recess and are still hungry. Please chat with your child/ren to see if this is them and if they would like more food in their lunchbox.
