Saint Ignatius’ College Riverview has the largest bursary program in the nation; it exists to provide opportunity and provision for those whose own personal circumstances would not allow them to attend. In the current context, there are about 90 boys on bursary, young men of ambition and hope, of talent and giftedness, whose aspirations in the post-school years will see them make appreciable contributions to their communities, and in the words of John O’Malley, civil society.
