Martin Pitt Scholarship Fund
Martin Pitt was someone who was positive, cheerful and full of energy; he was irrepressible.
Where he saw a need, he acted and carried people with him. Martin embodied, lived and breathed the spirit of the Cranbrook community before sadly passing away in 2010.
Martin was at Cranbrook for almost 60 years as a student, teacher, Head of House, Sports Coach and Deputy Headmaster. He was the heart and soul of the School and to commemorate Martin’s commitment and contribution to the life of Cranbrook, his family and the School established The Martin Pitt Scholarship.
Education and support for those less fortunate were two of Martin’s many passions. Martin’s love for rural Australia and his enthusiasm for boys’ education never waned and he had a strong belief that boys outside the city fringe should also have the opportunity of enjoying a Cranbrook education. He also understood the financial difficulty most rural parents endure.
As the inaugural Director of the Cranbrook Foundation, Martin worked tirelessly to encourage the Cranbrook community to support families who, without financial assistance, would be unable to consider a Cranbrook education for their sons.
