The Friends’ Fellowship is a two-to-three year bursary, available for a new student entering in Year 10 or 11 in 2026. Applications for this bursary are now open for new students entering in 2026.
Established in 2018, and funded entirely by community donations during annual giving, The Friends’ Fellowship provides financial assistance to families who can least afford a Friends’ education, and who will benefit greatly from attending the School. The value of the Bursary depends on funds raised. Recipients do not sit an exam, rather they demonstrate their commitment to academic achievement, service, community and the values of the School through an online application, interview and references from teachers and community members.
Term: Two-to-three years
Entry Level: a new student entering Year 10 or 11 in 2026. Applicants must be an Australian Citizen.
Value: up to 75% of school fees. Friends’ School bursaries are based on financial need and assistance varies depending on the individual family circumstances.
Applications Open: now
Applications Close: 9am, 1 July 2025
APPLY HERE (if you are applying for more than one bursary, you only need to complete one application form, not separate submissions).
