Equipping Your Daughter For

The Future

ON the crest of the Range, overlooking val leys and hills and yet within easy reach of the city, is “Fairholme” Presbyterian Girls’

College of Toowoomba, Queensland. It offers every advantage for a thorough education and, with the co-operation of a highly effi cient staff, every effort is made to equip girls for their future life, whether it be in the

home. In business, or in the professional world.

School work itself receives an added joy from the beauty of the surroundings, while leisure hours are wholesome and healthy.

There is, of course, every facility for outdoor recreations, while well-ventilated, spacious dormitories do their share in developing the health of the boarders. The school is building up a fine tradition; its past pupile are scat tered far and wide and many of them hold positions of responsibility and trust. —♦** Pat.
