Do you want to learn more about the Toowoomba suburb of Newtown?

Newtown is a residential area & locality in Toowoomba.  It is in the Toowoomba Region, Queensland, Australia. In the year 2016 census, Newtown had a population of 9,596 persons.

In terms of geography, the suburb of Newtown is located immediately west of the Toowoomba city centre.

The eastern end of the Gore Highway starts at an intersection with the Warrego Highway in Newtown.

In terms of history, please note the following:

The area was the first outside the city center to be subdivided for residential purposes in the year 1865.

On February 26th, 1899, the foundation stone for St Mary's College was laid.  That was done by the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Brisbane, named Robert Dunne. The school opened on October 2nd, 1899 with 120 students. It was operated by the Christian Brothers until the year1997, which was when the first lay principal was appointed.

Spreydon College commenced on February 4th, 1908.  That occurred in the now-heritage listed Spreydon house. Under the patronage of the Presbyterian Church, the school became The Presbyterian Ladies College in January of the year 1915. The primary school moved to the house called Fairholme in East Toowoomba in July of the year 1917.  The secondary school followed in the year 1918.  It is now known as Fairholme College.

Glennie Memorial School was opened on August 27th, 1908 by the Anglican Church. Establishing schools had been a long-term ambition of Benjamin Glennie who was the first Anglican priest on the Darling Downs.  He had raised funds for this purpose for many years, but had not achieved his aim before his death in the year 1900. Glennie was highly respected by the community.  The Anglican Synod continued with his fundraising campaign to establish a school to be named in his honor. The school was eventually renamed The Glennie School.

The Newtown Methodist Church opened in the year 1911 at 202 Russell Street. With the amalgamation of the Methodist Church into the Uniting Church in Australia in 1977, it became the Newtown Uniting Church. The property was sold in December of the year 2013 for $748,000 as part of an amalgamation of three Uniting Church congregations (Newtown, Scots and Westbrook) into the Lifeworks Uniting Church congregation.  It opened its first church in Glenvale circa July 2017. The former Newtown Methodist Church is now a childcare center.

From the years 1913 to 1917, Newtown had its own local government, the Town of Newtown.

Newtown State School opened on October 6th, 1924.

St Ursula's College was established on February 2nd, 1931 by the Sisters of St Ursula.

The foundation stone for Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Primary School was laid on Sunday, November 26th, 1939 by a Roman Catholic Bishop of Toowoomba whose name was Joseph Roper. The school opened on February 6th, 1940.  It was operated by the Sisters of St Ursula.

Toowoomba West Special School opened on October 4th, 1975.
