At Fintona, our exceptional teachers and staff create a world of active learning where each girl has the opportunity to find her own version of extraordinary.  We are renowned for a distinct and challenging approach to academic excellence that celebrates a love of learning across a wealth of disciplines, and for developing girls who move beyond their comfort zone to become fearless and adaptable leaders in their chosen field.

The Fintona rowing program has been operating for almost 40 years and has gone from strength to strength during that time.  Our program has produced some outstanding results, including last season culminating with our highest number of A finalists at the Head of School Girls’ Regatta.  We are currently seeking coaches for a variety of positions to join the Fintona rowing team for the 2025/2026 season.
