The 'Academic Excellence Scholarship' will recognise high academic achievers who persevere in their goals and redefine the meaning of excellence through their dedication and commitment to learning. The 'International Learner Scholarship' will celebrate students who embrace global perspectives, thrive through cultural connections, and see the world as their classroom.

Scholarship amounts will vary, offering up to 75 per cent coverage of annual school tuition fees.
