Why Fairholme
boarding schools toowoomba qld

Fairholme College...leading the way academically for over 100 years.

The Fairholme way is focused on high academic standards, but so is the desire to see students discover and develop their own strengths, from Kindy through to Year 12.


Fairholme has a tradition of educational excellence which embraces all facets of learning: academic, sporting, and the arts. We believe a well-rounded curriculum fully nurtures each student’s physical and social development.


Our focus is very much on the education of girls; creating classrooms that suit the learning of girls; challenging stereotypical views of females’ roles in education and ultimately growing confident, independent women.

    Finding Their Voice

    By Sarah Richardson • 05 Apr, 2024
    Adolescents have a discerning response to the sound of their mother’s voice, and they seek it out, particularly in stressful times... As a strong-willed and sometimes feisty teenager my daughter would say from time-to-time, “You don’t have to yell at me.” Bewildered, I would check with my husband who would shrug his shoulders in mute despair, saying, "Your voice wasn’t even remotely loud.”

    Preparing for life beyond Holme

    By Sarah Richardson • 05 Apr, 2024
    For our Senior girls on the verge of moving from Year 12 into life beyond the tartan, feeling prepared and confident to write their next chapter is crucial. The Fairholme College Pathways Programs are designed to empower each girl to explore their unique career interests long before they reach graduation, ensuring they are equipped to make informed choices about their future study, work, and career pathways.
