Scholarship Offer

Plant the Seeds for Your Future - Win a $500 College Scholarship

Deadline for submission to essay contest: 1 January 2018

If you are a motivated individual interested in studying agriculture, design, technology or something similar, then Flowers Across Sydney wants to give you a $500 college scholarship and help you get there!

There are three disciplines that make Flowers Across Sydney flourish: agriculture, design and technology. Because of this, we invite any and all students studying a field within one of these three disciplines to participate in our essay competition.

The topic to be explored for this year’s scholarship essay contest is “How Today’s Innovations Will Create Massive Change Tomorrow”. This broad topic is intended to test the fledgling students view of their respective industry as well as how it is likely to change in the future. We feel that innovation is the lifeblood of any professional endeavour, and we want to hear your vision on how you expect it to help your industry.

Rules:

  • This contest is open to secondary school seniors and university students looking to study a major that falls under one of these umbrellas: agriculture, design and technology. If you feel your course of studies falls into one of these categories, we want to hear from you!
  • Entrants must nominate themselves by submitting an essay that explores how today’s innovations will affect their chosen industry.
  • Essays must be between 500 words and 1,000 words.
  • All essays must be submitted to scholarshipsfoo@flowersacrossaustralia.com.au
  • All essays must be submitted by 1 January 2018.
  • Scholarship will be awarded on 1 February 2018.

Please include a short cover letter with your scholarship essay naming the school you attend or wish to attend, as well as the major you wish to pursue. Flowers Across Sydney will review all submissions and select the winning essay based on academic ambition, creativity and work quality. We may post some of our favourites on Flowers Across Sydney, so make sure to put your best foot forward!
