How Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund is used
The Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund (CSEF) provides payments for eligible students to attend activities like:
- school camps or trips
- swimming and school-organised sport programs
- outdoor education programs
- excursions and incursions
- graduations.
Eligibility for the CSEF
Those that are eligible to apply for the CSEF are:
- families holding a valid means-tested concession card
- temporary foster parents
- a student over 16 years who is considered a mature minor and holds a valid concession card (such as a Youth Allowance Health Care Card or Disability Support Pension Card). For guidance on assessing whether a student is a mature minor, refer to the department’s policy on Mature Minors and Decision Making.
A special consideration category also exists.
Schools can receive applications from families by 28 June 2024.
Families can list more than one student in the one application form if they are attending the same school.
