23.01.2022 If the start of your long weekend doesn’t look like this, you better book some accommodation and Visit NSW John Tucker Park is located in the township of Paterson and is located beside the River. It is named after local identity John Tucker who in 1939 purchased a riverside parcel of land alongside a small area already being used as a park by the public. He then presented his purchase to Council, ensuring it would be added to the area on the river bank. Today the park offers picnic tables, barbecues and playground.

18.01.2022 Each year a select number of Tocal College mares are bred by Artificial Insemination to outside sires. This process is not only a great educational experience f...or our students to be involved in but it also allows sought after bloodlines to be incorporated into our training and breeding program. Here is our first AI foal born for the year a gorgeous filly by the magnificent sire in Bonlac Gigolo and out of Tocal Ovation. This filly holds a number of quality and heritage bloodlines including Blue Moon Mystic, Star Black Minstril,Conductor,Kirkby Stud Officer, Romeo, Omega and Rivoli Rex. We look forward to seeing what the future holds for this filly! Who knows maybe a future college broodmare! See more

03.01.2022 Vale Colin Ford The pioneering and founding Principal of Tocal College, the Reverend Colin Ford, passed away on 29 December 2020 aged 95. Colin was the Prin...cipal of the CB Alexander Presbyterian Agricultural College, Tocal, from 1963-1967. Invited to join the College as founding Principal by Chairman of the College Council Edward Hunt, Colin quickly set about developing the curriculum, recruiting students and support from rural districts, and establishing a staff team in readiness for the first intake of students in 1965. At this time the campus was largely a building site and the Tocal property was under development. Colin was a Presbyterian Minister and a trained agriculturalist who was committed to agricultural education, making him an ideal choice for the role of Principal. It was no small thing for Colin to take on the ‘Tocal project’, moving down from Alice Springs from his role with the Australian Inland Mission. It was both an exciting time of development and a challenging period where operational funds were limited with the focus on the capital building program of the campus. Colin’s pivotal role in steering these developments set the College up for continuing success. Colin resigned in 1967 as Principal and returned to fulltime church ministry. He served as the Minister of St Andrew’s Uniting Church at South Turramurra for 18 years. Colin greatly appreciated his association with Tocal and considered it a highlight of his working life. He was held in high esteem and affection by students, a number of whom were corresponding with him up until his passing. Tocal College Principals Cameron Archer and Darren Bayley always enjoyed welcoming Colin back to College events, such as Graduation Day and Foundation Day, and appreciated his ongoing interest in all things Tocal. A service of thanksgiving will be held on the 13 February 2021 in Sydney. See more
