Camps are an amazing opportunity for your students. But they can be stressful for some parents to afford.
I would appreciate you passing this information on to the families of students who may be attending a school camp in 2025. Saver Plus will assist with their saving & budgeting for their upcoming camp.
Saver Plus encourages parents to save $50 a month (for 10 months). Savings are then matched - a free $500 for education costs, making $1,000 potentially available for the school camp.
Families that start saving in August, will have their savings ready to pay their school camp fees in June 2025.
If there are families that don’t have students attending camp they may also still apply for the program and allocate the funds to other education costs.
Saver Plus will chat with your families about eligibility:
Health Care or Pensioner Concession Card
Payment from Centrelink and
Earning an income (employment, carer’s payment, or child support).
If families would like to check their eligibility and receive a call back please include our enquiry link - https://www.bsl.org.au/services/saving-and-managing-money/saver-plus/ or they’re welcome to call our national number 1300 610 355 and a local coordinator will contact them directly.
Saver Plus helps your families with budgeting for the cost to attend next year’s school camp.
We are also still running regular information sessions for parents/carers every Wednesday that only goes for 15 minutes and have attached information flyer for those sessions as well.
Thank you for your ongoing support.
Regards,
