News of Old Trinity Grammarians

Michael Bragge (OTG 1974) will have his solo exhibition at West End Art Space (Adderley Street, West Melbourne) from 16 August to 6 September.

Ren-Hao Chan (OTG 2024) and Daniel Riccioni (OTG 2024) were recognised at the Premier’s VCE Awards for outstanding achievements in English and Product Design and Technologies respectively. Three current Year 12 students who sat VCE exams in 2024 were also recognised in their respective subjects: Chris Qiu for Algorithmics, Kaige Min for Latin and Eason Yang for Physics.

We were delighted to welcome Neil Williams (OTG 1964) as a guest speaker at the Year 7 Grandparents’ and Special Friends’ Morning in the last week of term, alongside his grandson, Blake.

Neil and Blake reflected upon their bond and the important role of grandparents in the lives of their grandchildren. Neil also has grandson Flynn (Year 9) currently attending Trinity. After the formalities, they enjoyed morning tea, a tour of the school and a shared lesson.

Neil was School Captain and Captain of Merritt House in 1964. He served on School Council 1976 to 2011 (1992 to 1995 as Chair); is current member of Trinity’s Stakeholder Group and a regular attendee at the annual Gold Mitre Lunch.

Steve Woods (OTG 1979) recently published his third book in the series For The Record.  This book is titled For The Record: As The Days Go By and is an on-this-day look at music, movies and television. Steve can be heard on Melbourne’s 3AW every Saturday night.

All books including For The Record: Australian Pop Culture 1964-2017 and For The Record: Classic Hits & Urban Myths are available at www.fortherecordbook.com.au.
