Recipients will be positive character reflecting humility, determination and honesty pursuing higher education or a specific area of interest.

The Bursary was established in 2003 in memory of former LVR teacher Brian McGrath. It was established by a generous donation from Brian’s brothers and sisters as well as contributions from colleagues and friends. Brian taught at Trafalgar, LV Rogers, WE Graham and DESK. He took an interest in all students, was alert to their needs and believed in giving them every opportunity to meet their potential.
