Scholarships and Bursaries
Update - 18 March 2008
Our academic entrance scholarships were held on 1 March 2008. These scholarships have now been processed and three academic entrance scholarships for students who will enter either Year 5, 6 or 7 in 2009 were awarded. One was awarded to an internal candidate, and two were awarded to external candidates. The field was extremely strong, and the results were very high. The general excellence scholarships for entry into Senior College have also been processed, and of these two scholarships on offer, one was offered to an internal candidate. The entry scholarships for Junior School have now closed and have been processed.
Music Scholarship - Now Closed for 2009 Entry
The 2009 Music Scholarship will be awarded to a student who can demonstrate exceptional achievement in Music as well as a commitment to music performance and who can demonstrate a similar commitment to achieving individual excellence in academic studies. This scholarship will provide fifty per cent of tuition fees, for the time the student is at The Knox School. Applications are now closed.
Dulcie Flinn Memorial Scholarship - Open
The Dulcie Flinn Memorial Scholarship is awarded annually and is for the duration of the student's stay in the Junior School. The scholarship generates fifty per cent of tuition fees and is awarded to a student whose parents, for whatever good reason, suffer a change in financial circumstances, whereby they can no longer afford tuition fees after the student had either enrolled or commenced classes at The Knox School. A confidential Financial Details Declaration will be required to support the application for this scholarship. Dulcie Flinn was the Foundation Principal of The Knox School.

Junior School Scholarship (new) - Now closed for 2009 Entry
The Knox School invites girls and boys to apply for a scholarship for Year 2, Year 3 and Year 4 entry in 2009. These Scholarships are not academically based and will be awarded by the Principal on an interview basis. This scholarship will generate fifty per cent of tuition fees and is tenable until the end of Year 6.
