[NSW] $100 Voucher for School-Age Kids Sport Activities for 2019 @ Service NSW

1040

Get your $100 voucher from the government for this 2019 calendar year.

Since 31 January 2018, parents and carers of school-aged children enrolled in an approved sport or fitness activity can receive a $100 voucher to cover registration and participation costs for each calendar year (ending 2021).

More information can be found on the deal link.

Basically, register your school-aged kids on www.service.nsw.gov.au and you will be given a $100 voucher you can use to pay for kids sport activities. the activities have various criteria like: have to be for more than 8 weeks long, not be organised through school, can't be used to pay for sports clothing/equipment, etc.

You can use it on things like:
* sporting pursuits
* swimming lessons
* structured fitness program
* outdoor education programs
* approved active recreation (dance etc)

You can claim 1 voucher per child each year for 4 years (starting from 2018). Is available for school aged kids aged 4.5 to 18 years old enrolled in school from Kindergarten to Year 12 who live in NSW (includes kids who are home schooled).

You can only use the voucher once and can't split it across different activities. Eg, if you use it to pay for an $80 sports fee, then the $20 balance of the $100 voucher cannot be used anywhere else.

    Have a kid, get a free $100? Doesn't really sound like a bargain.

        You should tell him to stop having the mindset of "what's in it for me"

        Me me me what's in it for me me me

        The society has gone selfish and unforgiving for no rewards doing something for nothing.

        That is so sad

      I know right? The NSW Government should extend this offer to Victorian kids too.

      You guys get to take kids for free to the zoo during weekends and school holidays. Come on…

      • Bugger the Mexicans (Victorians) down south. They get Grand Final Day & Melbourne Cup Day as holidays. Victoria get 13 days Public Holiday in total whereas NSW only get 11 days.

  • Dupe.

      For my daughters swimming lessons, we were quoted a totally different price for using the voucher. It was $80 more expensive than the regular price. They said it was down to “administration fees” for dealing with the vouchers.

      So, what I think they wanted to do was make it cheaper to use the voucher, but only $20 cheaper and just rake the rest off the top as government gravy…

      • Was it raised to the authorities? May be the sports club/ swimming pool should be doing this. Otherwise it beats the whole purpose. As it is the voucher hardly covers one month worth expenses in a year.

      I didn't know eBay owns Service NSW :P

    • My kids' swimming didn't go up. So…

    There is also the Creative Kids voucher at https://www.service.nsw.gov.au/transaction/apply-creative-ki…

  • Can I say that I'm a child of god?

  • Thanks, OP.

  • Darn it school age kids I assume 5 years old plus

    They should really make this available to kids over 3 with childcare support or attending pre school.

    It is unfair to 3+ years old but not school age yet, get nothing to be active

    I would definitely use it for my kid to go swimming for example

    You need to develop being active at early age, age 5+ is already too late

    Lots of them already on ipad and smartphone.

    They need to lower the age requirements. It would benefit a lot more kids or give parents the willingness to send kids to recreational stuff, and sports to start off. Too many are going indoors and we don't want that
