Music Scholarships & Excellence Programs
Your child may be interested in a sporting scholarship. These are offered in a huge range of sports by schools across Brisbane and include: athletics, cross country, swimming, football, rugby, volleyball, golf, tennis and more. There is even one for chess! Typically speaking, to qualify one would expect that your child has participated in their sport at a high representative level. There would be a similar expectation that your child would continue to participate in the sport throughout their tenure at the school.
Perhaps a music scholarship may be an option. To gain a music scholarship at a Brisbane secondary school a certain level of competency and commitment in the study of the instrument would have to be demonstrated. There would also be an expectation that your child would continue to study their instrument of choice.
