HILTON WHITE ESTATE SCHOLARSHIPS

Over the last few years Ballarat High School has been fortunate to receive funds from the Hilton White Estate Trustees to provide scholarships to our students. Due to COVID-19 we are aware that some of our families may be suffering financial hardship, and are pleased to be able to offer this opportunity at this time.

Currently enrolled student scholarship recipients will receive $500 placed in their school account to cover school costs.

Scholarship applicants will be assessed on the following criteria:

Primary family is able to provide evidence of financial hardship and is fully/partially financially responsible for educational expenses
Proven ability to model the school values of Pride, Respect and Responsibility
Excellent attendance record and a commitment to learning
A positive approach to studies, including an idea of what career they may want in the future
Participation in a variety of school activities
Being a good community citizen

All current enrolled students may apply for a $500 Hilton White Scholarship by submitting the Student Application Form. Applications will need to be supported by:

A copy of primary family members’ Health Care Card/Pension Card or other evidence of financial hardship
School reference

Any other supporting documentation that you wish to include.

The application form is located here for your convenience and can also be found on the School website at www.ballaraths.vic.edu.au,
