BURSARY POLICY STATEMENT
“Our College is a learning community seeking truth by living out the Gospel values through the Catholic
faith and by promoting the holistic and optimal development of each person”. College Mission Statement

By building on students’ abilities and developing their varying talents, we aim to achieve success for every
child in some area of the curriculum. To do this, we must accept differences among students and
encourage each of them to find and build upon his or her individual strengths. Our underlying assumption
is that self-esteem and confidence, the foundations of balanced lives, are achieved through repeated
success, encouragement and care.

To achieve our mission, we offer a broadly-based curriculum and a strong extra-curricular program. We
believe that only through vigorous involvement in College offerings can students get the best from their
education and fulfil their God-given potential.

Remissions offered to bursary awardees are applicable to tuition fees only. Families will be responsible for
costs associated with camps, levies and other sundry charges.

Each offer of bursary is subject to the completion of a successful enrolment interview which requires full
disclosure of any special needs. The College Board meets annually to make changes for the following
school year, including the number and different types of bursaries on offer.

Student progress will be evaluated each Semester and if expectations have not been met, the student will
be asked to justify the continuance of his/her bursary.

SPORT BURSARY PRE-REQUISITE
To be eligible for a bursary, prospective and current students are required to have exceptional talent in a
minimum of two sports. Representation at local (Association/League), State and National level would be
most advantageous.

SUCCESSFUL APPLICANTS
Student progress will be evaluated at the end of each semester where expectations have not been met,
the student will be asked to justify the continuance of his/her bursary. Applicants will be notified by mail
at the start of Term 3.

range of outcomes during his or her schooling. Recipients of such bursaries will be held to the same

I recognise that it is my responsibility to provide all necessary documentation. I understand that a completed
Application for Admission Form is to be lodged if a bursary offer is made, and that relevant application and enrolment
fees are payable when accepting the award of a sport bursary.

I understand that the bursary selection process is competitive and not all applicants who meet the basic eligibility
criteria will progress to an interview or be awarded a bursary.

I am supportive of the selection process as outlined above and agree to abide by the decision of the bursary selection
panel.
If unsuccessful, I understand that the decision of the panel is FINAL and NO APPEAL regarding a decision will be
