$500 École Seaforth Elementary School Alumni Scholarship

 The Seaforth Parent Advisory Council is proud to be offering a $500 scholarship for École Seaforth Elementary School alumni. At École Seaforth Elementary School, our mission is to provide a happy, safe, supportive and challenging learning environment where our children learn to become compassionate citizens able to contribute in a global community.

With the spirit of citizenship at heart, the Seaforth scholarship is more community based than academic focused. While a respectable grade point average is expected, the successful candidate must be able to demonstrate how they provide leadership to younger members of the community as well as partnership with elder members in the same community. The student will demonstrate that a true leader guides those who need to know, while, at the same time, learns the value in the ability to follow and learn from others.

In a 500 word essay the eligible students must demonstrate how they have exemplified these qualities. While we encourage all to apply, we are looking for students that have gone outside of the home or classroom to make a difference in the community and make this community a better place to live.

Please include a brief letter of support for this scholarship from a teacher or a school/community official as well as the dates the student attended Seaforth. Please submit applications to Seaforth.PAC@burnabyschools.ca

DEADLINE:  May 30th

61 SCHOLARSHIP ENDING THIS MONTH

 With the school year quickly coming to an end, ScholarTree.ca has made a concerted effort to add as many scholarships to the platform as we could find. May is the end of peak scholarship season so there are a lot of awards with upcoming deadlines.

We currently have 61 scholarships that equate to 367 awards and a total of $960,500 application period ending this month. So there is still time for students who have put off applying to scholarships throughout the school year.

Students can sort their scholarship list (https://scholartree.ca/scholarships) by the deadline by using the sort by option at the top of the page.
