St Frances Bursary
As a school in the Edmund Rice Tradition we strive to offer a Liberating Education based on a Gospel Spirituality within an Inclusive Community committed to Justice and Solidarity. We offer our St Frances Bursary as part of our commitment to justice and peace for all.
The St Frances Bursary provides a discount on annual tuition and is open to members of the community who hold a Refugee Visa (Subclass 200) and wish for their son to apply to CBHS Lewisham. We hope that this bursary will help us to support academic success and future career opportunities for more members of our community.
