Toorak Collegians
The Toorak Collegians Committee (previously called the Toorak College Old Girls' Association) was formed in 1908 with the aim of contributing towards the lives of Collegians, the School and the community. Today, the Toorak Collegians Committee endeavour to do this by offering our 11,000+ members a range of opportunities to stay connected including facilitating careers assistance, funding a Collegian Grants program, maintaining a rich archives collection and running popular Collegians based events.
