Ged Kearney Scholarship

Future Families

The Hon. Ged Kearney has offered an amazing opportunity for our young people to grow their leadership in our school. This is a non-financial scholarship, named in honour of its patron, offers mentoring and leadership development for all young women who are entering Preston High School in Year 7.

What it involves

Selected scholars work as a group over the course of their 6 years at High School and are mentored by Ged Kearney. This mentoring is focused on developing the leadership skills of young women and on making change happen. Students develop the skills to be ambitious leaders with a focus on the ability to make change happen at a local and national scale.

The scholars meet once per term with Ged Kearney to progress their work on their leadership and change agenda.

The scholars group also meets at school to continue to explore their leadership journey.
