About Bridgetown High School Alumni Association

Established in 2004 to provide a way for ex-students to give back to the School, the Alumni is now a vital part of Bridgetown High School's culture and has been responsible for scholarships and the construction of the Drama room.

The Alumni look at different ways to assist the High School, however, fundraising remains a big focus for the group. For more information about the Alumni, visit: www.bhsalumni.org.au

Scholarships

From 2007 to 2020 the Alumni Association provided two scholarships – one for Sustainability and one for Music.

In 2021, changes to school priorities led to the school suggesting we change the scholarships we offer. Thus, from 2021, the Association, on an annual basis, provides four scholarships, worth $500 each, to one student from each year at Bridgetown High School. These scholarships are provided to a student from each year who best demonstrates the school values of Kindness, Resilience, Responsibility and Respect.

To provide the funds for this, the association runs a fundraiser known as the Scholarship Classic. Local businesses are approached for a donation of $100, their names are put into a hat, and a draw is held during the annual Bridgetown Agricultural Show. The scholarship for that year is then named after the business drawn from the hat.
