St Saviour’s College, Toowoomba

ST SAVIOUR'S GIRL FOR A MORNING | We welcome your daughter to attend our next St Saviour's Girl for a Morning. This is an amazing opportunity to immerse your daughter in all that our College has to offer. Here she will have the chance to try classes, connect with our wonderful students and supportive staff and see first-hand how we are doing the simple things extraordinarily well.

Starting the day in our Callaghan Centre, visiting students will gather in a home-class style setting with our friendly Mercy Girls to be addressed by our Principal, Mrs Jessica Wade, before heading through rotating activities and enjoying a catered morning tea in Dublin Place.

Places are limited for this event, so we recommend registering here: https://enrol-ssc.twb.catholic.edu.au/st-saviours-girl-for-a-morning

THROWBACK THURSDAY | As we approach Fandom Day - one of our favourite days of the year for both staff and students, we take a look back at last year's event success.

Last year, as a College we raised $783 for Hummingbird House, Queensland’s only children’s hospice and one of only three children’s hospices in Australia. Through gold coin donations, food and drink stalls we were able to help support hundreds of families from right across Queensland and make precious moments count when time is short.

Let's see what we can raise this year!

STUDENT SPOTLIGHT | We are proud to celebrate Meg, one of our talented students for her recent success at the Hampton Festival Photography Competition.

Meg's photograph, “Inside the Shearing Shed,” was recognised with a Very Highly Commended award in the Under 18s category, sponsored by Bel’s Framing & Photo Pro. This is a fantastic achievement in a highly competitive field.

Having always enjoyed photography, Meg has seen her passion grow significantly over the past year. Her dedication, creativity, and willingness to develop her skills are clearly reflected in this outstanding piece of work.

Congratulations on this well-deserved recognition, we look forward to seeing where your photography journey takes you next!

FANDOM DAY | The excitement is building and the countdown is officially on! We can’t wait to see our students bring their favourite fandoms to life, all while raising money for Hummingbird House.

Our amazing Library team has already been getting the creativity flowing with fun lead-up activities and showing how you can create awesome character looks from everyday items at home.

Remember costumes don’t have to be complicated! All you need is:
- Your favourite fandom
- A little imagination
- Maybe a hot glue gun!

Start planning, get creative, and let’s make this Fandom Day unforgettable

Happy costume planning!
