Vale Peter Heagney

Peter Heagney, who was Head Prefect at The Terrace in 1955, died on October 28. He was aged 84. Peter was an outstanding all-rounder and made a strong contribution to College life.

In addition to being referred to as a ‘thorough gentleman’ in Headmaster Brother A D Collopy’s Annual Report, Peter was a House Captain, President of the St Vincent de Paul Society and a committee member of the Sodality of Our Lady. He was also a prominent sportsman. He excelled in athletics, captained the Terrace team and was Under 18 state schoolboys’ high jump champion, as well as being a strong contributor in the 1st XI cricket team and Vicecaptain of the 1st XVIII football side. In fact, while studying dentistry at the University of WA in 1959, Peter debuted in the WAFL with the Claremont Football Club. He was also a prolific goal-kicker for University in the Amateur Football Competition. After graduating, Peter was a partner in a dental practice in Cottesloe before specialising to become one of Perth’s leading orthodontists.

Trinity College and the Trinity-Terrace Old Boys’ Association extends its sincere sympathy to Peter’s wife, Pixie, and their family on their sad loss.
