             Thank you for your interest in Lindisfarne Anglican Grammar School’s scholarship program for the 2023
             school year.
             Each year Lindisfarne offers a limited number of scholarships, under the following categories:
                 ●  Academic Scholarships - Entry in Year 5, Year 7, Year 9 and Year 11.

                 ●  Sports Scholarships - Entry in Year 7, Year 9 and Year 11.
             Scholarships offered by Lindisfarne Anglican Grammar School are awarded after the School receives the
             results of the Edutest Scholarship Exam to be held on Saturday, 19 February 2022. Lindisfarne scholarships
             are offered on the basis of that Exam plus the student’s portfolio and an interview (if required) with the
             Principal or his delegate.
             Scholarships are offered for the duration of the students’ education at Lindisfarne, subject to a satisfactory
             annual review. This review is conducted for all scholarship recipients. Scholarship amounts can vary, with up
             to 75% off the tuition component of the school fee account. This is at the discretion of the Principal,
             supported by a panel review.
             Students who receive the benefit of a scholarship are expected to fully participate in the life of the School
             and to undertake curriculum and co-curricular studies and opportunities in support of their scholarship.
