CQUniversity and North Rockhampton State High School (NRSHS) have enjoyed a long and successful collaboration, providing skills and knowledge to generations of Rockhampton region students for over 50 years.

Now we have joined forces to enable NRSHS graduates to pursue further education at CQUniversity by establishing the CQUniCares North Rockhampton State High School Graduate Scholarship Fund. Together, we can support Rockhampton’s next generation to follow their dreams.

Ellie's Story

Student Ellie Watson holding thank you sign smiling at the camera

My name is Ellie Watson, and I am a recipient of a CQUniCares Macoun Family Scholarship for North Rockhampton State High School Graduates.

I am currently pursuing my Bachelor of Nursing at CQUniversity, and this scholarship has significantly contributed to my ability to advance toward my academic and professional aspirations. Thanks to the scholarship, I can dedicate myself more fully to my studies, alleviating the additional pressures associated with financial obligations.

I aspire to specialise in cardiac nursing eventually, and I am passionate about making a positive impact on people’s lives through compassionate, high-quality care. Receiving this scholarship has not only eased my financial burden but has also strengthened my motivation to succeed and contribute meaningfully to the health and well-being of our community.
