Share Your Wardle House Memories...

In 2027, we celebrate 70 years of Wardle House as Toorak College’s dedicated Junior School, and we would love to hear from the Collegians who have been part of its story.

🐴 Celebrating Toorak’s Equestrian Community 🐴

Last week the Toorak College Equestrian Team celebrated an outstanding season, recognising the achievements, dedication and contributions of its riders.

The Toorak Collegians were delighted to once again sponsor the Overall High Points Awards, presented to Abbey R (Senior School) and Ava D (Junior School), recognising two very deserving students for their contributions to equestrian this year. 🏆

Collegian Committee Member and school Equestrian superstar Georga Cowan (nee Bryant, TC 2003) reflected on how far the program has come in nearly 30 years since school equestrian competitions began. From humble beginnings to the thriving team and wonderful opportunities students enjoy today, the growth of the sport at Toorak is something to celebrate.

A special thank you to Julia Williams, whose passion and dedication in establishing the equestrian team have helped build such a wonderful community and create opportunities for students to pursue their love of the sport.

The Toorak Collegians are proud to support this tradition and celebrate the achievements of our riders, while recognising the people who have helped shape this incredible community along the way.

Congratulations to Abbey, Ava and the entire team on a fantastic season! 💙

🌟 From Toorak College to the Australian Defence Force, and now taking on The Bravery Trek! 🌟

Collegian Spotlight - Pippa Nilson (Doyle) TC 2006

My journey at Toorak College began when I was awarded a General Excellence Scholarship for Years 11 and 12.

After graduating in 2006, I commenced university but quickly found myself feeling a little lost and uncertain about my direction. I decided to take a gap year and, in 2008, was selected for the inaugural Australian Defence Force Gap Year Program.

By September that year, I knew I had found my calling. I transitioned into the permanent Air Force and began training as an Air Traffic Control Officer at RAAF Base East Sale.

My first posting took me to RAAF Base Tindal in the Northern Territory, a strategically important base in the defence of Australia’s north. Since then, my career has taken me across Australia and around the world, with postings to the UK, USA, Newcastle and Canberra.

Along the way, I’ve completed a Graduate Diploma in Aviation and a Master of Science and Technology (Aviation) through UNSW, alongside some extraordinary professional development opportunities.

I’m also one-quarter of 4 in the Holding Pattern! We are a team of four Australian Defence Force women taking on The Bravery Trek tonight. From dusk until dawn, we’ll be running around the Australian War Memorial in Canberra to raise funds and awareness for Bravery Trust, a charity that does incredible work supporting veterans and their families in times of crisis.

No doubt, the desire to support my community and give back to those in need is something Toorak College instilled in me during my time at TC. 💛❤️💙

✨ Five years. One shared beginning. So many memories. 💫

Our 1–5 Year Leavers were back last Friday night… to catch up, laugh, reminisce and connect.

We love having five years in those early alumni years to reconnect; because so much happens after you leave school! Uni, first jobs, new adventures, new friendships… and plenty of life in between.

It’s pretty special to keep that TC Spirit alive. From Year 12 to Collegians, the school years might be over, but the connection definitely isn’t! 🥂✨

Thanks to everyone who came along and made it such a great night. See you at the next one! 💙

What a special afternoon celebrating the incredible members of our Hamilton Society. ❤️

Our annual Hamilton Society Theatre Show celebration is always about more than entertainment, it’s about bringing over 30 remarkable supporters together, connecting and celebrating the generosity of a community that believes in giving back.

One of the most powerful things about philanthropy is that everyone can be a philanthropist. Every gift, every act of generosity and every person who chooses to give back contributes to something much bigger.

That is the true strength of the Hamilton Society; the power of our collective community. Together, our members are helping ensure future generations of students can experience the opportunities, education and memories that make Toorak College so special.

Thank you to our Hamilton Society members for your generosity, your belief in our future and for being such an important part of our community.

Together, we can leave a lasting legacy. For more information on how you can join us contact [email protected]
