Bishop Joseph Grech Youth Scholarship 2022

The Bishop Joseph Grech Scholarship winners for 2022 were honoured at an awards ceremony and luncheon in Bendigo on Thursday 16th June. Nathan Batt (Year 11), pictured in our banner photo with Paul Desmond, Director Catholic Education Sandhurst, was the recipient from St Augustine's College.

The Bishop Joseph Grech Scholarship recognises exceptional young people in Sandhurst colleges who model exemplary behaviour and contribute to the life of their college, through their commitment to their faith and to social justice.

The luncheon was hosted by the Chief Executive Officer of Catholic Education Sandhurst, Mr Paul Desmond who paid tribute to students, highlighting their achievements, community contributions and exceptional leadership skills.

The Bishop Joseph Grech Scholarship for Youth was established in 2011 to honour former Bishop of Sandhurst, Bishop Joe Grech. The scholarship enables senior students in Sandhurst Secondary Colleges to participate in spirituality or leadership programs beyond their schools, promoting young people as significant members of the church.

Mr Paul Desmond said it was a privilege to learn more about the wonderful young adults in our schools.

“The Bishop Joe Scholarship enables Catholic Education Sandhurst to continue his legacy to the young people of the Sandhurst Diocese and gives recipients the opportunity to flourish as leaders within their schools and in the wider community.”

Congratulations Nathan on being a Bishop Joseph Grech Scholarship recipient for 2022.
