The St Bernard's College Foundation has a proud tradition of offering Bursaries and Scholarships to students at St Bernard's College.
Bursaries help those families who otherwise would not be in a position to send their son to St Bernard's College due to hardship or unforeseen circumstances.
Scholarships reward those who excel in particular fields whether that be academics, sport, or the arts, the Foundation wishes to acknowledge the achievements of these students.
Your contribution to the St Bernard's College Scholarship and Bursary Fund ensures that the College Foundation can continue to support these students. Your donation will have a direct impact on students at the College today and will play some part in shaping the men of tomorrow.
Your gift may also provide you with tax savings. The St Bernard's College Foundation Scholarship and Bursary Fund has DGR status so all gifts over $2 are fully tax deductible. For more information CLICK HERE

SBC Rowing
Our St Bernard's rowing team have been training hard for the upcoming nationals this weekend - over the past 4 months the team has trained on average 9 times a week to ensure they are prepared. The squad is coming off the back of winning the A Grade quad at Henley on the Maribyrnong which has certainly provided them a massive confidence boost and a winning mentality heading into nationals
We will all be cheering you on this weekend Boys, Best of Luck!
Old Collegian Mick O'Brien (SBC 1961) has put pen to paper to produce his first book!
Mick describes the book as a mix of biographical and memoir, detailing his six and a half years training for the priesthood – the last two years being in Rome and his subsequent legal career which spans decades in the course of which he was a foundation member of the Fitzroy Legal Service – the first community Legal Service in Australia and, closer to home, with some reflections on his family.
Mick has kindly provided the below sneak peak and would love some feedback from the St Bernard's
Community - if you'd like to reach out to Mick please email him - michaelob0702@gmail.com - or
give him a ring - 0403 105 301.
