Scholarship
Laptops
In 2020, the This is ‘IT’ initiative was born, in an attempt to equalise access to education across the South East region of Melbourne. Now in 2023, with the assistance of very generous donors, the initiative has expanded into the Bayside and Peninsula regions. The initiative aimed to offer scholarships to local students, in the form of laptops.
In this day and age, laptops are a required learning tool.

Mazenod Football Club
Mazenod FC is actively striving to create a Female Football program to run parallel to our long-running male football department.
At present, we have FIVE female teams with room to grow. As such, we have places available to fill our Under 13 and Under 15 GIrls teams, who will play in the Football Victoria metropolitan competitions this season.
With the FIFA Womens Football World Cup due on our shores this year, we would like to see the number of female footballers grow, not only for us but for the nation in general.
