The Scots College offers AIEF Scholarships for boarding students.
The Scots College 2023 Report
Dr Ian Lambert, Principal
The Scots College Indigenous Program works closely with the local Indigenous community to provide a world class education for our students. For over a decade, AIEF Scholarships have enabled the college to support boys in achieving their educational goals and dreams beyond school.
This year we farewelled two students who successfully completed their education, having both started in Year 7 on AIEF Scholarships. Both boys are exceptional young men, with bright futures ahead of them. We have increased the number of students in the program overall and have enjoyed working with AIEF Alumni in a number of projects and events.
Miss Justine Kolliou continues to lead the Indigenous program. In partnership with the boys’ families, Miss Kolliou has increased the college’s connection with the local Indigenous community. Miss Kolliou uses student-centred data as well as feedback from the boys’ families to inform her practice and the direction of the program. A major focus of the past 12 months has been the boys’ feelings of connectedness to Country and culture. Working with the Gujaga Foundation, Miss Kolliou has facilitated a program to support the boys in feeling more connected to Country and culture whilst boarding at the college.
We look forward to three new students joining the Scots Indigenous program on AIEF Scholarships in 2024.
