November 20, 2015<\/strong><\/p>\n

Young tertiary students from Yarraman or Cooyar with a passion for community, sporting or cultural pursuits have been invited to apply for the 2016 W.H. Groom scholarship.<\/p>\n

The Toowoomba Regional Council scholarship winner will receive $5000 in half-yearly payments.<\/p>\n

Cr Anne Glasheen said eligible applicants must be between 18 and 24 and in their second or third year of full-time study at TAFE Queensland South West or the University of Southern Queensland.<\/p>\n

The selection requirements cover a student\u2019s first and\/or second-year academic achievement and their record of community service in arts, sport or charitable groups.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe scholarship is a great way to acknowledge the academic and civic achievements of a young person who is contributing to their community. Apart from the recognition associated with the scholarship, the monetary prize is designed to help with a student\u2019s course costs.\u201d<\/p>\n

The prize will be awarded at Toowoomba Regional Council\u2019s Australia Day ceremony.<\/p>\n

Applications close on Monday, December 7.<\/p>\n

Application forms can be downloaded from the TRC website<\/a><\/p>\n

The scholarship was established in 2004 to mark the centenary of Toowoomba\u2019s proclamation as a city and to honour the achievements of Toowoomba\u2019s first mayor, William Henry Groom.<\/p>\n

W.H. Groom served a total of seven terms as mayor from 1861 and was elected to represent the municipality in the Queensland Colonial Government.<\/p>\n

He was elected to represent the Darling Downs in the first Federal Parliament and was responsible for much of Toowoomba’s early development.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
