Frequently Asked Questions
What is Active Kids?
The NSW Government is allocating $207 million over four years (starting 01/01/2018) to help NSW families meet the cost of getting their kids into sport and active fitness and recreation activities.
The initiative aims to reduce barriers to participation and help change the physical activity behaviours of children and young people in NSW.
Who is eligible to claim the voucher?
Every child (4.5 – 18 years’ old) enrolled in school from Kindergarten to Year 12 is eligible. This includes those who are home-schooled or enrolled in secondary school education at TAFE NSW.
The program is not means tested. One voucher will be available for every child in the family annually over 2018 – 2019 – 2020 – 2021.
How long are vouchers valid?
The voucher can be used at any time during the calendar year it was issued.
Vouchers can only be used once (if the chosen activity fees are less than $100, then the remaining balance cannot be used). Vouchers cannot be split between multiple clubs or registrations, and therefore you may not be able to claim the full $100.
What can the voucher be used for?
The voucher can be used for registration or membership fees for structured activities that are eight weeks or longer and provide a moderate to vigorous level of physical activity, for example:
Physical activity is defined as movement involving large muscles (e.g. running, swimming, aerobic activity). Physical activity must be planned, structured and involve repetitive bodily movement which improves or maintains physical fitness.
