TOM BATTY SCHOLARSHIP

Honouring 14 years of outstanding leadership
The School , with the support of the Scotch College Foundation , is establishing the Tom Batty Scholarship , to honour Tom Batty ’ s outstanding leadership of Scotch College over the past 14 years . The Scholarship will be officially launched at the Scotch College Foundation AGM and President ’ s Dinner in the Boykett Room in the Cardinal Pavilion on Thursday 12 May .
This perpetual scholarship will be awarded to boys with a proficiency in Mathematics . The scholarship will also reflect Tom ’ s passion for and commitment to young people , and will provide a lasting legacy of his educational leadership and achievements .
The Foundation is seeking to raise $ 800,000 to create the Tom Batty Scholarship . To date we are halfway there , with $ 400,000 having been generously committed to the fund . We hope to raise the balance by 30 June . Donations can be made by way of a oneoff gift or a five-year pledge at any of the Foundation membership levels . Donations to the Scotch College Foundation Scholarship Fund are tax deductible .
Please join with us by making a commitment to the Tom Batty Scholarship , and help to celebrate Tom ’ s commitment to Scotch , as we look to open the doors to Scotch for boys who would otherwise be unable to attend the School .
More information about the scholarship , and how you can support it , is included in the brochure that accompanies this edition of Great Scot . The brochure includes a donation form .
