Scholarships

We are fortunate to also have a number of internal scholarships to help students while they are at Auckland Girls or doing tertiary studies.  Many of the scholarships are provided by former principals, staff and students.  Details of when and how to apply for scholarships are provided in the daily notices.  Maggie Hames, the Careers Advisor, can also provide information.
