51茶馆

Future leaders were celebrated at the 51茶馆 (UniSQ) last week as families, donors, and staff came together to recognise the 2025 Scholarship Award recipients.

Over 100 recipients of Philanthropic, International, Research, Government, and Academic Excellence Scholarships were celebrated in two ceremonies across the Toowoomba and Springfield campuses.

UniSQ Vice-Chancellor Professor Karen Nelson said the occasion provided a powerful reminder of the importance of investing in education.

“Behind every scholarship is a student whose life has been changed by the generosity of others," Professor Nelson said.

“These events celebrate the belief we place in the dreams and potential of our students. We look forward to seeing the impact they’ll make in the world.”
