Camps, Sports and Excursions Fund (CSEF)
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.

Ritches Community Benefit Program
The Ritchies Community Benefit Program allows shoppers at Ritchies Supermarkets and Liquor Stores to donate a percentage of their purchases to Mount Waverley Secondary College by using their Ritchies Card or app. To participate, shoppers simply need to register their card or use the Ritchies Card App and select Mount Waverley Secondary College as the recipient from the list available on the app or website.
All funds raised through this program will go to student-led initiatives.
New Outdoor Seating – A Block Senior Campus
Our brand new outdoor seating and turf is now complete and it looks fantastic! This was a student-led initative, using funds raised by our Uniform Shop.
Bonsai Tree – STEAM Centre
The Bonsai Tree and seating in the STEAM Centre atrium is complete and looks fantastic! This was another student-led initiative using funds raised from our annual raffle and mango fundraisers, and we can’t wait to see the students decorating this with varying themes throughout the year.
2026 Parent Financial Contributions
The 2026 Parent Financial Contributions are available on your Parent Portal in Compass. Please click on the ‘Payments Centre’ tab, under the heading of 2026 School Contributions. While the Department of Education provides funding to schools each year on a per student enrolled basis, this funding only covers a portion of the core operating costs of running the school. It covers things such as salaries, utilities, some repairs to buildings, and some curriculum support.
The funding does not cover the additional programs run at MWSC that support our student’s wellbeing and growth, or the consumables required in the classrooms for use throughout the 2026 school year. Our specialist programs rely heavily on parent contributions to ensure we have access to the latest equipment and resources.
Additional projects around the school including garden upgrades, repurposing buildings, additional furniture and shade sails are all only made possible via fundraising and voluntary parent contributions. Over the past few years, we have been able to make several upgrades across the college using the contributions made to our Building Fund, including the Wellbeing Hub and Outdoor Learning Space.
You can find the Compass contributions parent guide here: Compass Billing – Parent Guide
You can pay in full or instalments. If you would like a custom payment plan, please call the finance team on 9803 6811 or email finance@mwsc.vic.edu.au.
Thank you for supporting our college.
Volunteers and Uniform/Book Donations
