Torrita is a locality situated on the Mallee Highway and Pinnaroo railway line section between Ouyen and the South Australian border in the Sunraysia region. The place by road is about 13 kilometres east of Underbool and 8 kilometres west of Walpeup.

A Post Office opened on 15 July 1912 when regular mail service was provided by the opening of the railway from Ouyen to Murrayville a month earlier, but it was known as Nyang until 1921 and closed in 1984. The name Nyang is preserved in the Nyang Flora Reserve to the south of the highway.

The school closed in 1969, and the building was later moved to Walpeup as an art room.The locality area contains the smaller area of Kattyong and, to the south, the smaller area of Gunner.
