As part of our current unit on weather and seasons, we are excited to announce an upcoming excursion to Scienceworks!

This hands-on experience will support and enrich the learning we’ve been doing in the classroom by giving students the opportunity to explore how weather and seasonal changes affect our daily lives.

At Scienceworks, students will engage with interactive exhibits and participate in activities that help them better understand weather patterns, the science behind the seasons, and how these natural changes influence our environment, clothing, activities, and even our health.

This excursion is a wonderful opportunity for students to see science in action and make real-world connections to what they’ve been learning at school. We look forward to a fun and educational day!

Requirements:
Students are in full school uniform. Snack and lunch should be brought to school in a clearly labelled plastic bag with your child's name. Please ensure all items are disposable. Lunchboxes are not required on this day.

Every Victorian child should have access to the world of learning opportunities that exist beyond the classroom. The Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund helps ensure that no student will miss out on the opportunity to join their classmates for important, educational and fun activities. 

It is part of making Victoria the Education State and the Government’s commitment to breaking the link between a student’s financial circumstances and their outcomes.

School camps provide children with inspiring experiences in the great outdoors. Excursions encourage a deeper understanding of how the world works while sports teach teamwork, discipline and leadership. All are a part of a healthy curriculum.

CSEF is provided by the Victorian Government to assist eligible families to cover the costs of school excursions, camps and sporting activities.

If you hold a valid means-tested concession card or  support an out of home care student you may be eligible for CSEF. A special consideration category also exists for asylum seeker and refugee families. The allowance is paid directly to the school to use towards expenses relating to camps, excursions or sporting activities for the benefit of your child.

HOW TO APPLY

New applicants should contact the school office to obtain a CSEF application form or download from the website below.

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

You only need to complete an application form if any of the following changes have occurred:

• new student enrolments: your child has started or changed schools this year.
• changed family circumstances: such as a change of custody, change of name, concession card number, or new siblings commencing this year.

Check with the school office if you are unsure.
