The Camps, Sports Excursion Fund is provided by the Victorian Government to assist eligible families to cover the costs of school trips, camps and sporting activities.  If you hold a valid means-tested concession card or are a temporary foster parent, you may be eligible for CSEF.  An allowance is paid to the school to use towards expenses relating to camps, excursions or sporting activities for the benefit of your child.

The annual CSEF amount per primary aged student is $125 per year.

If you qualify for CSEF support, you are also eligible to apply for the Family Fee Assistance Program funded by DOBCEL.  The FFA is to help families with the Annual Family Fee by reducing this amount to $520 for the year; this means in 2023 the FFA support is $860 per family.

Both funds are to be applied for through the school (with both forms included here).  These need to be submitted at the school office along with a copy of your current Health Care Card, or Veterans Affairs Card.

If you have applied for this before you do not need to submit this form each year, however if you have become eligible over the past 6 months or are a new family, please lodge your application.  To be eligible your card must be valid on Friday 27th January 2023.
