Creating Pathways Through Scholarships and Bursaries
At Frensham Schools, we are committed to shaping the next generation of compassionate, creative, and collaborative leaders. Our educational approach nurtures critical thinking, resilience, and a strong sense of social responsibility, equipping students to make meaningful contributions to the world.
Thanks to your generosity, we can extend a transformative Frensham education to talented and deserving students, who can thrive within our community and make a lasting impact.
We are pleased to announce that applications are now open for the 2026 Frensham Schools Giving Day Bursaries and the 2026 Darville Family Scholarship (Mathematics & Science).
2026 Frensham Schools Giving Day Bursary
The 2024 Giving Day was an extraordinary demonstration of our community’s shared values, raising an astonishing $533,000. This achievement reflects our collective belief in the transformative power of education and our commitment to ensuring that more students can benefit from all that a Frensham Schools education offers.
As announced at last year’s Final Prayers, we are proud to offer four means-tested bursaries, made possible by your generosity on the Giving Day.
- Three bursaries for new students entering Year 9 in 2026 (Years 9 to 12)
- One bursary for a student entering Kindergarten in 2026 (Years K to 6)
These bursaries provide life-changing opportunities for students who would not otherwise have access to Frensham Schools, enabling them to engage fully in our rich academic, co-curricular, and extracurricular programs.
2026 Darville Family Scholarship (Mathematics & Science)
We are delighted to invite applications for the Darville Family Scholarship, available to a student entering Year 11 in 2026, and who are passionate about and excel in the areas of Mathematics and Science.
Established in 2019, this scholarship reflects the Darville Family’s commitment to supporting women in STEM. Their vision was inspired by Courtney Darville (2012), whose Frensham education provided a foundation for her outstanding achievements in these fields. Courtney has gone on to study Mathematics and Science at the University Sydney and is currently a Junior Engineer at the University of New South Wales School of Computer Science and Engineering.
The Darville Scholarship provides $40,000 per year towards tuition fees, supporting a student through Years 11 and 12 (2026-2027).
Creating Lasting Impact
Expanding access to a Frensham Schools education is not only an investment in individual students, but also a commitment to enriching the diversity and strength of our community.
