The Jopling Family

The Jopling Family Scholarship has been made possible due to the generosity of Mr Peter Jopling AM QC (LLB) in honour of his father, Mr John Jopling Jr and his passion for education and rowing. Mr Jopling is passionate about the importance of a quality education and the life-changing impact that such an education can have on an individual. Mr Jopling’s other great passion is the sport of rowing and its connection to the pursuit of a healthy and rewarding life.
