Scholarships at Churchie

The academic culture of Anglican Church Grammar School (Churchie) celebrates intellectual and creative pursuits and places learning at the heart of the School, providing the basis for exceptional educational programmes and personal development opportunities tailored to meet the needs of boys.

The School’s strong academic tradition is evident in our 11 Rhodes Scholars and the achievements of our graduating Year 12 cohorts. During their time at Churchie, students are academically extended and challenged in our Aquila gifted and talented programme and take advantage of the best new-generation learning spaces.

Supporting boarding families

We understand the cost of boarding education can be a significant financial commitment for families. To support our boarders and their families, Churchie offers a variety of financial assistance options including boarding bursaries, sibling discounts and payment plans.

GPS Sporting Excellence Scholarships

Churchie offers a limited number of scholarships for new students who have demonstrated an exceptional level of commitment to their chosen sport and are currently excelling at a state level or higher.

Sports scholarship recipients are selected on a basis of their sporting credentials, potential for ongoing success and the applicant’s willingness to commit themselves across Churchie’s four tenets of academic excellence, spiritual awareness, personal growth and service.

Sporting Excellence Scholarships provide for up to 100 percent remission of fees from commencement (Year 7 or above) to graduation, subject to regular review by the Headmaster and Head of Cocurricular.

Expressions of interest are invited via this form:

Music Excellence Scholarships

Music Scholarships are available for instrumentalists who have achieved at least Grade 5 AMEB performance on a wind instrument, Grade 6 on a string instrument or Grade 7 Contemporary Vocals. Applications for students playing French horn, bassoon, violin, viola or double bass are actively encouraged.

Music Scholarships are for students entering Years 7 and higher and provide remission of school fees through to Year 12. The level of scholarship awarded is dependent on the ability of the student and the needs of the School. Scholarships are awarded solely at the discretion of Anglican Church Grammar School. Competitive entry is based on audition and interview.

Music Excellence Scholarship applications close Friday 21 March 2025.

Auditions will be held from Tuesday 1 to Thursday 3 April 2025.

The requirements for the audition are not dissimilar to that which would be undertaken for a normal AMEB exam. 

The audition will consist of the following:

  • two contrasting pieces to be played
  • a sight-reading excerpt on an AMEB level consistent with the pieces selected
  • some musicianship questions drawn from the pieces themselves
  • aural tests consistent with the AMEB standard presented.

If students require an accompanist, this will need to be provided by parents.

Chorister Scholarships

Churchie offers an opportunity for boys who love to sing to be a part of the St John’s Cathedral Choristers. In response to the choristers’ significant contribution to the worship life of St John’s Cathedral, they are offered a scholarship at Churchie from Year 5 until the end of Year 8 (subject to review). These scholarships provide a rich and disciplined environment in which to gain outstanding choral skills. Scholarships are available for part remission of tuition fees only.
