Childcare Bursaries
posted 14th Jan < back to all newsApplications for childcare bursaries are now available from my office and must be returned by the deadline below with all supporting documentation. The Childcare bursary was originally intended to help single parents with the costs of childcare - particularly in the case of a crisis pregnancy and this remains the primary objective of the fund. While it is open to all postgrads with young children the cut off age for children is generally 6th class in primary school. While we would like to help everyone who applies there is a limited amount of money in the fund. The decision of the Financial Aid Committee is final.
Applications will not be accepted after the deadline or without ALL SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION.
If you have any questions please contact me and I am happy to post them out to anyone who is not on campus at the moment.
Please note that all cheques will be made payable to childcare provider.
DEADLINE: Monday the 1st of February at 4pm!
Due to Graduations next week I will have restricted office hours during the week beginning the (18th) of January so please check my office hours section regularly.
