Scholarship Testimonials
In giving to Ravenswood, you are not only contributing to the legacy of generations of Ravenswood Alumni, parents, staff and friends of the School who have given for over a century, you are continuing the Ravenswood tradition of philanthropy well into the future.
Historically, our Giving Day and Annual Giving fundraisers have benefited hundreds of students through scholarships and bursaries. Our Scholarship and Bursary Fund acknowledges academic and co-curricular achievements, supporting students to reach their full potential through a Ravenswood education. Bursaries provide the transformational educational opportunity to Ravenswood students who may not otherwise be able to attend the School who have faced challenges but are passionate and determined to succeed.
Hear from some of our Ravenswood students and Alumni as they reflect on the benefits and difference a Ravenswood Scholarship or Bursary has made to their lives.
Together, we can make a difference.

ACADEMIC SCHOLARSHIP
'I'm a big fan of dance and that's something that the scholarship really supported. I was able to manage all of my out-of-school interests and really focus on my academics which was also really important to me as well.
I wouldn't have been able to make it to where I am now without the scholarship and support, and it really allowed me to flourish.'
