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.

    Penne Skene joined Fairholme as a boarder in 2017, when she was only in Year 5. Although moving away from home to attend boarding school may seem daunting for many 10-year-olds, Penne was captivated by Fairholme right from the start, recalling, 'I knew immediately that I would proudly call this school my home for the next eight years.'
