Monash Scholars Recipients 2022
Congratulations to Sasha B, Ethan C and Clara A (all Year 10) who were successful recipients of the Monash Scholars Program for 2022.
The Monash Scholars Program provides selected high achieving students from Years 10 - 12 with an exclusive opportunity to engage with Monash University. Successful scholars commit around 20 hours a year to the program; this will mostly involve attending on-campus academic and personal development events after school hours and during the holidays.
Scholars who successfully gain a place at Monash University after completing Year 12 will then continue to receive benefits including leadership and ambassador opportunities.
