About the Toorak College Old Girls Association:

The Toorak College "Old Girls Club" was founded on Monday, 15th June 1908 as a means of keeping past students in touch with one another.

By 1918, the name had changed to The Old Girls Association of Toorak College and had a membership of 389.

Approximately 3,000 of 7,000 Old Girls are members of the TCOGA, and whilst our main aim remains the same as in 1908, our support to Toorak College has strengthened through providing funds for the TCOGA Archives Centre and Elizabeth Beischer Memorabilia Collection, the Joan Minson Scholarship, Year 9 & Year 11 prizes, the Year 12 Leavers' Cocktail Party and the Year 7 Luncheon.

The TCOGA supports a very competitive Golf and Tennis team which compete against other Old Collegian Associations.

• To keep Old Girls in touch with one another and with the school
