About the scholarship
This scholarship was established from the Estate of William Georgetti who passed away on 7 Feb 1943. During his lifetime Mr Georgetti farmed an extensive property at Fernhill, near Hastings, ‘Crissoge’. He believed that ‘whatever fluctuations there may be in prices for primary produce and in land values and whatever vicissitudes the said Dominion may pass through farming land will always be the most stable asset in which to invest money’. The purpose of the William Georgetti 91视频 is to encourage postgraduate study and research, in 91视频 or overseas, in a field that in the opinion of the Scholarship Board is important to the social, cultural or economic development of 91视频.
