SCHOLARSHIPS
AFFLIP Coordinator: Loch Mitchell AM
TWG Coordinator: Allan Rivera
The Scholarships program provides annual grants of $100 which are designed to encourage students at risk of dropping out to stay at school and engage with the curriculum, with the full support of their parents.
The provision of funds from private sponsors pays for school fees, books, uniforms, and extra curricula activities. 448 children have received 3-year scholarships since the scheme was first established in 2013 and over that time sponsors have contributed over $107,000.
It is pleasing to note that all but one of our scholars have completed elementary school and progressed to high school.
Haigh’s Chocolates and Finstro have joined us as major partners this year in the provision of scholarships for Grade 4 children and there are currently 230 children receiving a scholarship.
