Bursaries


Thanks to generations of benefactors and supporters we are fortunate to have a well-established endowment, which allows us to budget for bursaries.

Bursaries are given to help support families who wouldn’t otherwise be able to afford some or all of the school fees.

Champagnat Trust

The Champagnat Trust has been established to provide assistance to students in necessitous circumstances selected on the basis of financial need. The Trust takes its name from the founder of the Marist Brothers, St. Marcellin Champagnat. These bursaries offer full, half or part thereof of tuition, boarding (where applicable) and compulsory fees for students entering Years 7 to 12. Families applying for fee relief in the form of a bursary are asked to complete a confidential Champagnat Trust Application Form and provide supporting documentation. Applications for the Champagnat Trust Bursary close each year on 30 June.
