Every year we provide over 50 scholarships across all years in Senior School. These scholarships allow girls to excel who may not ordinarily have this opportunity. Needsbased, General Excellence and Boarding scholarships are available for deserving applicants. The Old Scholars Association also makes two annual scholarships available – one in Year 7 and one in Year 10. Our thanks to the following scholarship donors: • DCR Capital & Denby Roberts • Restore Hope Australia • Jill Clarke • JB Pete Craig • Everist Family • Andrea Tickle Foundation • June Johnston Family
MADALAH Scholarships
This year we welcomed our first MADALAH Scholarship students into our Boarding House. It is a privilege to work alongside MADALAH to provide education for these incredibly special girls. This year’s intake included girls from Year 7 to 11 from regional areas across Western Australia.
June Johnston Scholarship
June Johnston (nee Stewart) was a boarding student at St Hilda’s in the 1930s. Originally from Gnowangerup, she would travel to and from the boarding house by train, enjoying the comradery that comes with the bond of sharing a life together with friends at school. Upon her passing, June’s family have left a special legacy. From 2022, the June Johnston Memorial Boarding Scholarship will provide full tuition and boarding for a student entering Year 10 for three years. The intention behind the scholarship is to support a student who would otherwise not be able to attend St Hilda’s as a boarding student. Thank you to the Johnston family for this generous gesture and for supporting future students at St Hilda’s.
ESSTEAM studio
Our ESSTEAM program and the ESSTEAM Studio was launched in October this year and our campaign to raise $5million commenced. Proceeds from the 125th Gala Cocktail Party and a number of seed donors is helping us reach our target. Our thanks to these key donors: • DCR Capital • John Hughes and Joanna Millard • Ahmad Mustapha and Siti Bustari • Rosh Jalagge • Damian Collins and Jennifer Wakefield

A range of exclusive merchandise was designed and manufactured to celebrate the School’s 125th year. We partnered with a range of local designers and St Hilda’s families, including Murph&Murph, Thurlby products and Leeuwin Estate. Limited stock is still available online.
