Foundation

More than a century ago, our School was founded with ample vision and the abundant goodwill of a supportive and giving community. Its establishment was a bold and significant venture on the part of its first headmaster, Ernest Albert Gill.

Some of the meaningful ways the Foundation supports students are through the provision of scholarships, bursaries and the development of new buildings and amenities.

With the passing of 11 decades and multiple generations of families associated with the School, Toowoomba Anglican School has emerged as a living example of education at its finest. Along the way, a strong belief in the School’s spirit and purpose has been aided by generous philanthropic support to enhance educational opportunities for all our students.

The Toowoomba Anglican School Foundation exists to further inspire funding for the School’s ongoing development and to provide prudent management of existing and future funds.

The Gill Society - Bequests

The Gill Society, named in honour of the School's first Headmaster, Ernest Albert Gill, recognises those individuals who bequeath to the school as part of their Last Will and Testament, a legacy to ensure lasting benefits for future generations.

Mr Gill was an extraordinary man with pragmatic business wisdom developed as an accountant, then nurtured as a passionate advocate for education.

Your bequest will help fund scholarships for students who may not otherwise have the opportunity to learn and grow at Toowoomba Anglican School.  It will help support bursaries for rural students who would not normally be able to attend a boarding school.  Your bequest could also help fund school Foundation projects such as new buildings and learning spaces.

We invite you to contact us if you are considering a bequest to our school so that we may arrange a meeting with Head of School. For further information please contact us via email: foundation@taschool.qld.edu.au or phone: 07 4639 8111
