ACE COLLEGE BURSARIES


Year 12 students at Shepparton ACE Secondary College are finishing their schooling with a bright future ahead of them thanks to Greater Shepparton Foundation, Shepparton South Rotary Club and the Margaret Attwood Trust.

 

A total of nine Bursaries have been awarded to ACE College students who are undertaking pathways to employment or further studies at the small, low fee secondary school in Shepparton.

 

Greater Shepparton Foundation Executive Officer Amanda McCulloch says the students and their families were identified as needing additional financial support and the Foundation were able to facilitate the initiative through its partnerships with local philanthropic organisations.

 

“We are thrilled to be able to bring together local partners in Shepparton South Rotary Club and Margaret Attwood Trust to support students to undertake Certificate and Diploma level courses in 2025,” explained Ms McCulloch.

 

ACE Secondary College Careers Advisor Sile Coleman says the Bursaries were greatly received by families and will be used to support the cost of studies.

 

“ACE College is a wonderful community based secondary college that provides a safe, accessible learning environment which focuses on positive educational experiences and outcomes and creating pathways to tertiary study and employment,” explained Ms Coleman.

 

“Sometimes the barriers to study are too great, and having access to the Bursaries through the Greater Shepparton Foundation and its partners is a wonderful initiative to support students and their families remain engaged in learning and pathways to employment.”

 

Seven students are undertaking a Diploma Community Services, one will be undertaking a Certificate III in Commercial Cookery and one a Certificate III in Motor Sport Technology, and all will be applying the Bursaries to support the purchase of equipment or course fees in 2025.
