St Saviour's College is an all-girls day College in the heart of Toowoomba. A place where we are nurturing our students' faith and spirituality through our Catholic tradition and Mercy heritage. Our girls are surrounded by passionate teachers, volunteers and mentors, where they feel safe and know they belong. It is a place where they are known, nurtured and supported to succeed. There are so many opportunities for your daughter to reach her God-given potential, and she will do it enveloped by a supportive community, who will become her sisters.

As an independent, forward-thinking girls’ school we are committed to preparing girls for a lifetime of learning, leadership and engagement in our global community. We believe in girls. At Ruyton Girls’ School we foster the individuality of each girl in a caring and safe environment, nurturing her intellectual, physical, social and emotional qualities that are essential to flourish. Powerful learning is central to the Ruyton culture, building on our strong academic reputation. We focus on advancing the learning of every girl through the engagement of intellectual curiosity, building their knowledge and skills about how to learn, and supporting them to achieve their personal best and be exemplary citizens. We believe in real-world learning beyond the classroom, collaborating with the wider community to promote growth, discovery and sustainability. We empower our girls to lead lives of purpose with courage, character and compassion. Through the development of values and action-focused learning they are inspired to pursue equity and justice for self and others. By embracing diversity and raising their voices, our girls effect positive change and make a difference.
