St Bernard's College Foundation Mark Rose Scholarship
This year the St Bernard’s College Foundation has the great pleasure of announcing the establishment of the Mark Rose Indigenous Scholarship. The scholarship which will be awarded for the first time in 2023 and is the College’s desire to create a learning environment that values Indigenous culture and promotes a sense of belonging for Indigenous students in our School. We are proud to have chosen to name the Scholarship after one of our much respected Old Collegians in Professor Mark Rose (SBOC 73) who is Deakin University’s Pro Vice-Chancellor, Indigenous Strategy and Innovation. Mark Rose is traditionally linked to the Gunditjmara Nation of western Victoria. With a long career in education Mark has contributed to a broad range of educational settings within the State, nationally and internationally. The inclusion of Aboriginal knowledge and history in the national curriculum has become his life’s work.

Stand with Vince Brock in His Time of Need
My friend, Vince Brock, has never harmed a soul but if it weren't for his terrible luck, he would have no luck at all. He has struggled financially for most of his life. He is honest, kind, and hardworking. Vince generally has two jobs and struggles to buy groceries, but he pays his bills and carries no debt. He is proud and never complains about his struggles. Over the last 6 months, he has had to deal with health complications that forced him to take several weeks of leave from work. He managed to squeak by. His rent was raised again last month, and he spent another couple of nights in the hospital very recently and now he will be adding Type II Diabetes to his list of health complications (new doctors, co-pays, and grocery lists). know that everyone is struggling these days. I will like everyone of us to donate to him to get a car for mobility and less stress. Your support will be highly appreciated
