CSEF applications close on 4th July 2025

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

If you have a valid means-tested concession card, or are a temporary foster parent, you may be eligible. A special consideration category also exists for asylum seeker and refugee families. Means-tested concession cards must be valid on the first day of Term 1, 2025 (Tuesday 28 January 2025) or Term 2, 2025 (Tuesday 22 April 2025).

A student aged 16 years and over who is considered a mature minor and holds a valid concession card is also eligible to apply.

Eligible families will receive a payment of $154 per year for primary school students and $256 per year for secondary school students. The funds will be paid directly to the school to be used towards camps, sports and excursion costs 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, please click here or contact the school office werribee.ps@education.vic.gov.au  and ask for an application form. Please return completed application forms to the school office as soon as possible.

Thank you.

Outside School Hours Care - Camp Australia

We are proud to partner with Camp Australia to provide our Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) program.


Camp Australia. Guiding children

Camp Australia – Guiding Children’s Growth

Camp Australia programs are centred on child enrichment, while ensuring a reliable, engaging and hassle-free OSHC service at our school.  Their engaged educators foster a safe, inclusive environment where children can relax, have fun and grow.

There is zero cost to register for before and after school care with Camp Australia.  This would ensure that Camp Australia have your child’s/children's details and therefore they could be easily booked into outside school hours care when required or in an emergency.

There is no supervision at school before 8.30am or after 3.20pm.  Students are not to be at school outside of these hours as there is no supervision available.

We encourage all families to sign up by clicking here.
