Academic Scholarships –

The Year 7 Academic Scholarship is by application to the Principal on a scholarship application form and is awarded for high academic ability.  Students must be nominated by a teacher and need to complete an academic test conducted at the school as part of the application process.   An academic record needs to be provided and students require a reference from the class teacher.  An out-of-school reference can be provided relating to community involvement, but this is optional.  The scholarship will be awarded following a panel assessment of each student’s application.

Application forms can be found here: Academic Scholarship Application – Y7 2025
