Reunions and events

At the Old Trinity Grammarians’ Association Community Breakfast held in early September, guest speaker Tess Madgen, Captain of the Opals Australian Basketball team, took attendees on a journey through her life as a high-performance athlete, including her recent experience at the Paris Olympics.

Bringing together members of the wider community, this annual event celebrates the connections we share, and for the students in attendance, offers a glimpse into the extensive network they will join upon graduation as Old Trinity Grammarians.

Our Principal, Mr Adrian Farrer, visited our community members located in Shanghai with Ms Vicky Yu from our LOTE department in June. This was a wonderful opportunity and well received by all in attendance, which included Old Trinity Grammarians and former, prospective and current parents of Trinity students.

Our thanks go to all who were able to attend, in particular those who travelled some distance to join us for the occasion. 

In early July, Old Trinity Grammarians ranging in peer years from 1961 through to 2018 caught up with our Principal, Mr Adrian Farrer, Director of Business, Mr Mark Glover, and member of our academic teaching staff, Mr James Sherratt, in London.

Even though members of the group spanned different eras, it was great to hear of their experiences both at and post Trinity, it was interesting to hear how much they had in common, including their shared values. 

Thank you to all who were able to join us for the dinner and post dinner engagement. 

Date: Friday 25 October, 12.30pm – 2.30pm
Location: The Sawyers Arms
Price: $50.00, which includes a two-course set menu and refreshments.

WOTG members toasted Mothers’ Day with a lovely afternoon at Bar Alba, Kew in May where we enjoyed their fabulous food, service and setting. It was a relaxed afternoon with many new members joining in. Following each event, we see new friendships being formed through discovered common interests. Please keep a look out for the details of our next event which will be held in October. Members are most welcome to contact us with ideas of what event you would like to enjoy next. An example of previous events: tour and high tea at Parliament House, Boyd House tour, South Yarra, and tour and briefing of MITS (Melbourne Indigenous Transition School). 

WOTG is a social group for mums who no longer have a son attending Trinity and who are looking for a different way to remain connected socially. Our events are diverse and chosen for members to enjoy activities they may not normally experience.
