Stephen Dawson urges Kimberley families to grab student assistance payment before deadline

Kimberley parents are being encouraged to cash in on the WA Student Assistance Payment by Minister for the Kimberley Stephen Dawson.

The payment offers $150 per child in kindy or primary school and $250 per high school student, in a bid to help pay for school essentials, from uniforms and school shoes to laptops.

“The Cook Government is committed to supporting regional families with the cost of living, and this payment is one way we’re delivering on that commitment,” Mr Dawson said.

Families have until Friday, July 4 to make their claim, and are told the easiest way to do it is through the ServiceWA app.

For those who need a hand with the digital side of things, there’s also in-person help available at libraries across the Kimberley including a Digital Assist Kiosk at Broome Library.

Education Department staff are also hitting the road to help families and schools navigate the process.

“We encourage families to claim their payment as soon as possible to help with education expenses,” Mr Dawson said.

“The ServiceWA app is the most efficient and secure way to make a claim for WASAP, but families can also claim through our alternate methods using the web or paper form.”
