Do you wish to learn more about the Toowoomba suburb of Harristown?

Harristown is a residential locality & area.  It is situated in Toowoomba in the Toowoomba Region, Queensland, Australia. In the year 2016 census, Harristown had a population of 8,555 individuals.

In terms of geography, the Harristown suburb is located to the southwest of the Toowoomba city center.

In terms of history, the locality is named after George Harris (1831–1891).  He was a Brisbane businessman and Member of the Queensland Legislative Council.

Originally, Harristown was in the Shire of Drayton.  The locality was first opened as the Harristown Estate in the year 1902. The estate consisted of 177 building sites ranging from 16 to 34 perches (400 to 860 m2). Forty blocks were eventually sold at the auction.

Harristown State School opened on September 4th in the year 1911 with 67 students. The official opening on Saturday, September 30th, 1911 was performed by the acting Secretary for Education Kenneth Grant, by which time the enrollment had already increased to 84 students.

From the year 1915 until the year 1993, the suburb had a functioning railway station on the Toowoomba–Wyreema line.

After World War II, the area boomed.

Although the need for Lutheran schooling in Toowoomba had been identified since 1926, the Great Depression, followed by World War II, prevented a school from being established. Concordia Lutheran College opened on February 17th, 1946 in the (now heritage-listed) house Redlands on a 25-acre (10 hectare) site in Stephens Street with 27 students (23 of them being boarders). In the year 1964 a primary school campus opened.  It was located nearby in Warwick Street with an initial 64 students. A second primary school campus (originally called Martin Luther Primary School) was established in the year 1977 at Hume Street, Centenary Heights.

St Anthony's Catholic Primary School was established in the year 1954 by the Presentation Sisters. The foundation stone was laid on November 21st, 1954, which is a significant day for the sisters as their order celebrates the Feast of the Presentation of Mary in the Temple on the 21st of November each year. The first classroom was ready in February of the year 1955 and by the end of 1955 there were 116 students enrolled. The Presentation Sisters ran the school until the first lay principal was appointed in the year 1985, although the sisters continued to teach in the school until the end of 1997.

Harristown State High School opened on January 24th, 1955.
