The year so far

As the school year unfolds, students have been busy making memories, taking on challenges, and embracing new experiences. From the excitement of Year 7s first tug-of-war to the camaraderie of the Year 12 breakfast, each moment tells a story of growth, learning, and school spirit.

To our current families, we hope this brings a sense of pride; to our alumni, a touch of nostalgia; and to our future students, a taste of what’s to come. Enjoy the stories, the photos, and the spirit that makes our school truly special!

In the Christmas holidays, senior Trinity students of history, arts and Latin travelled to Italy for a memorable academic tour. Journeying from the southern island of Sicily through the length of the Italian mainland to Umbria, the boys saw a variety of ruins and ancient architecture, bringing textbook knowledge to life. This was doubtlessly a trip to remember for a lifetime!

The school year began with the induction of our new Year 7s at St Paul’s Cathedral, a Trinity tradition that has been going on for decades. Each House conducted its own inductions too, with some incorporating fun activities to help the newest students settle in.

Early in the year, students participated in various inter-house events, including the much-anticipated House Tug-of-War competition, won by none other than Hindley House.

Every year begins with the Year 8 embarking on one of the most memorable camps of their school life. Whether it be sailing yachts, kayaking or hiking, it is all done with great enthusiasm.

For the Year 12s, this year marks the beginning of an end, the final push until they move to a new chapter in life.

Starting out, they experienced an inspiring leadership breakfast at the MCG, with guest speaker Alisa Camplin-Warner AM.

The Trinity community came together earlier this term to take part in the annual Harambee Fundraiser.

Throughout the course of three weeks, students, staff and families raised over $45,000 in donations, going towards improving the lives of those who are less fortunate.

So far, this year has been full of excitement, challenges, and unforgettable moments. From camps to competitions, we’ve made unforgettable memories. With so much more to come, we can’t wait to see what’s next!
