Principal’s Address Bicentenary Year

This year – along with other Christian Brother Schools throughout the world – Trinity College has been celebrating the bicentenary of the establishment of Edmund Rice's first school in New Street, Waterford in 1802. From this small beginning the great enterprise of Edmund Rice education, as we know it today, has developed. In a number of ways the Trinity community has joined together to make this year very special. One highlight of the year was a wonderful combined Christian Brothers’ schools Mass held at the Entertainment Centre in May. Trinity Old Boys Reunion

Another great celebration was held on Saturday 26 October, when nearly 600 past students gathered at Trinity for a Bicentenary Reunion. This night was a huge success and I congratulate the Trinity Old Boys’ Association Executive – and especially the Planning Team led by Darren Taggart – for their initiative and hard work in making this a wonderful event. Past students who attended were very complimentary about developments in facilities and programs at the school. Mr Tony Curtis, Principal Governance

English Literature, History, Economics and Geography. At Trinity the improvement in boys’ literacy is in stark contrast to the poor performance by boys throughout the nation. It should be noted that one of the four exhibition winners last year was Daniel Privilege for English. In addition to the excellence of the exhibition winners, a large number of TEE students performed extremely well. For instance, 5% of students achieved a TER of 99 (arguably five times the state average), 12% achieved a TER of 98 (arguably six times the state average), and nearly a quarter of the students (24%) achieved a TER of 95 (ie the top 5% in the state). These are outstanding “top end” results.

One of the issues currently occupying the attention of the Brothers generally, and the attention of the Province Leadership Team in particular, is the question of Brothers moving out of leadership positions in their schools – and also the consideration of a possible new form of governance for Christian Brother’s schools throughout Australia. This process will be quite significant for schools such as Trinity, and will require of the Board and other members of the school community that we understand the special charism of Edmund Rice so that this can be lived out in the school and handed on through the school community. This challenge was a key feature of the address of Br Kevin Ryan, the new Province Leader, at this year’s Speech Night.

Curriculum Framework

During the year we have progressed steadily with our planning for the implementation of the Curriculum Framework. A major step forward this year was our reporting in outcomes at Year 8 level. We plan to report in outcomes at the Year 9 level next year. The work involved in working through the Curriculum Framework process has placed a huge additional workload on Heads of Departments and teachers generally, and I thank them for their professionalism in working through this process.

Academic Excellence

I am pleased to report that the College is continuing its double barrelled drive for academic excellence on the one hand, and developing a range of programs suited to the diverse needs of our students on the other. We have been especially pleased with the developing relevance of the INSTEP program that Trinity participates in – called ONSITE – which provides some forty five senior students the valuable experience of structured workplace learning. We were, of course, delighted with last year’s superb academic results – culminating in four exhibitions – the best results in the College’s history. Of particular note was the performance of our students in literacy based subjects where they performed well above the state average in English,

Mary Rice Centre

which indicates that we might finally have found an experience for our young which touches them deeply and can significantly influence the direction of their lives. It is certainly an experience which could become a significant part of the profile of senior Trinity students. Our thanks are extended to all involved, and in particular, to Br Rob Callen for his great work in coordinating and energising the retreats.

teachers. Next year we will have twenty three students in the Centre and a number of these will be moving into the post compulsory phase of their education. At the time of writing the College has advertised for an additional teacher to work in the Centre. Design and Technology Education

Our Design and Technology courses are already at the cutting edge of Design and Technology education in Western Australia, and this year have progressed to include two Year 12 courses. This has been a very rapid and successful transition from nothing to a full range of technology courses. I would especially like to thank Harry and Diane Marsden for their leadership in this important area and thank them for helping to establish such a great centre. Harry and Diane will be returning to England the end of this year for family reasons, and I would like to thank them and wish them well for the future.

Christian Service

With the employment of Mrs Marya Stewart as Director of Christian Service, we have implemented the third step of our three pronged faith education program which now involves Campus Ministry and Christian Service in addition to the traditional Religious Education courses. Mrs Stewart has recently returned from a tour of American High Schools which successfully operate Christian Service as core parts of their educational experience, so I’m sure we will see an expanded role for Christian Service next year.

Observatory

Facilities and Upgrading

At this time last year we were talking about the development of our observatory. Following the appointment of Mr Jeremy Dixon as Observatory Manager, the operating systems have now been further developed and the observatory is now operational online. This is a wonderful development and we hope that Astronomy and Space Studies options, the astronomy club, and the night observations will continue to flourish. Next year we have been invited to host the Astrofest early in February. This year, the Astrofest, which was held at Lathlain Park, attracted some 6,000 visitors.

I am pleased to report also on two major areas of capital development at the College: Replacement Pool

We received approval from the Christian Brothers to move ahead with the process which will lead to the construction of a new 50m swimming pool to replace the current 25m pool which is sinking. This pool will be heated for all year round school use and will have a full water polo capacity to allow for training and competitions in water polo which is a new PSA sport. Because the pool and all the surrounds need to be

Year 12 Kairos Retreats

extensively piled, one third of the cost will be underground.

One important, and highly successful, initiative this year in our developing faith education program has been our first four day residential Kairos Retreats for Year 12 students. The Kairos retreats have involved an enormous commitment in planning, time and resources, but the end result has been beyond our most optimistic expectations. The Year 12 students I have spoken with have said it’s the best thing they have done in their lives. This is an extraordinary response

However, the new pool will be a great resource for both the primary and secondary schools and will be used for learn to swim classes, physical education, outdoor education, aquatics including lifesaving and scuba diving, as well as for the PSA swimmers and the water polo teams. There are expectations that the pool will be able to be used by members of the Trinity and wider community.

TOBA Function Centre Proposal

EPRA’S “Eastern Gateway” Masterplan

The other major capital development item I need to mention is the Trinity’s Old Boys Association’s proposal to build a function centre for up to 180 people as a first floor addition to the changerooms at Waterford. This is a very visionary concept, and the plans look very exciting. The Trinity Board has endorsed this proposal and has included it in its capital development planning framework. The Trinity Old Boys have also undertaken to raise the funds for the total cost of the new centre as a special tribute to the College and the Brothers in this the Bicentennial year. This is an extraordinarily generous commitment and I would like to recognise this generosity and commitment publicly. I would like to thank the Old Boys, and in particular their hardworking and creative Executive, led by their President Les Conceciao.

The consultation period for the East Perth Gateway draft Masterplan has now concluded, and Trinity’s response can be read via the ticker news links on the College’s web site (www.trinity.wa.edu.au). The masterplan is a very exciting concept for the revitalization of the area around Trinity and in fact could provide an opportunity for an expansion of the College. Parents will be kept informed of any developments as they occur. Br Pat O’Doherty’s Retirement

Members of the Trinity community will probably know by now that one of the legends of Trinity, Br Pat O’Doherty, retired at the end of third term after a lifetime of service in education. I would like to recognise the enormous contribution and commitment of Br Pat. On your behalf, I thank him. I congratulate him for his wonderful life as a Brother, and I wish him a peaceful, enjoyable and restful retirement.

Capital Fundraising Appeal

The College’s Capital Development Program is largely funded through its recurrent budget. However, from time to time this needs to be “topped up”. The College has developed a loan proposal that will meet most of the cost of the new pool without a significant increase in fees. However, we have commenced a Capital Fundraising Appeal for new parents and those current parents who are not part of the Treacy Centre Appeal. The target of this appeal is to raise $500,000 over the next four years. At the time of writing, over $300,000 has been pledged by 120 families. This is a wonderful start to the appeal, and we thank all concerned very much for your support.

My Future Retirement

To the student body – and to the Year 12 group in particular – I extend our congratulations and thanks for what has been a great year of achievement. At Speech Night, we were able to recognize our graduating Year 12 students in a special way. On the previous Thursday we were likewise able to recognize them in a wonderful Mass and graduating ceremony and then at a graduation meal with their teachers and parents at Gloucester Park. To Matthew Spencer, our Head Prefect and to Nathan Howe, Deputy Head Prefect, I owe a special debt of thanks. They, the other members of the prefect body and the Year 12 students generally have made a strong commitment to the College and its values. I extend to all our graduating students the College’s congratulations and best wishes for their future lives.

After more than forty years teaching, I have also decided that it is time to think of retirement, and perhaps learning to stay on a few more fairways. At the end of next year I will be approaching 65 and have decided that that is enough. My current contract concludes at the end of next year, and after that I will be joining Br Pat in retirement. The Board has set up a succession planning working party which is presently working through the process of preparing the way for the advertising for a new principal to commence in 2004. At this stage the working party is considering advertising for the new principal early next year. Thanks

Once again the support and contribution of parents to the College this year has been exceptional. This has occurred through formal groups such as the Canteen Roster, the College Board, the Ladies Auxiliary, the Parent Council, the new Uniform Shop, and the Opportunity Shop. In addition there are many others who help in many ways – in clubs, in other groups and individually. To Mr Les Conceceio and the members of the Trinity Old Boys Association, I extend my thanks. The Association’s work in providing support for current students as well as past students in general is much appreciated and their two major initiatives this year – the planning for the Waterford Function Centre and the recent Bicentenary Reunion – have been outstanding. The College Board, which has an important responsibility for assisting in the overall development of the College and the management of its resources, has been of great support to me. I'm particularly pleased that the Board has the capacity to view the big picture and to share the Edmund Rice vision. My personal and the College’s thanks are extended to Mr Damien Bowen and the other members of the Board. Mr Bowen, Mrs Irene Hislop and Mr John Featherby are due for retirement at the end of this year and I would like to thank them very much for their great contribution to the development of the College.

Staff

We are always much indebted to the members of our support and teaching staff. At Trinity we are fortunate indeed to have quality staff members – they are professional, hardworking, and strongly committed to the welfare of the College. Whilst we often notice and talk about changes in facilities and programs, we don’t talk enough about the daily interaction of teachers and students that is at the heart of the education process. It is the every day work of excellent teachers which makes Trinity a great school. Mr Tony Curtis Principal

The Brothers from different countries all over the world have walked the Emmaus story and have emerged stronger and more committed. They have recognised that the “Gift of being Brother” is essentially about a quest for God through deeper relationships with all of creation, with all peoples, and with other Brothers in particular. This is challenging us as Brothers to be more personally prayerful, to share our stories more deeply with each other, and with other people in a prayerful way, and to give greater

the Province, two of those being at the Province headquarters. That does not reflect the presence of Indigenous people in the Australian population, who are approximately 2% per cent of the population of Australia. School communities in Christian Brothers Holy Spirit Province, along with those of us in the leadership of the Province, could well take time to reflect upon some aspects of this issue: • Does our promotion of enrolments make our schools attractive to Indigenous Australians? • Prayer and sacramental rituals, assemblies and other school rituals – do they occasionally affirm Indigenous culture and identity? • Are there icons, art pieces, musical expressions or other artistic expressions of Indigenous culture in the schools. • Are there parent groups and activities that are welcoming of Indigenous families? • Do our Board memberships reflect, and do our Board agendas reflect, Indigenous presence and issues in our schools and country? • Do our employment and industrial practices encourage application from Indigenous people (e.g how and where do we advertise, who are on the selection panels, appraisal panels etc)? Do we encourage the selection of staff who are experienced in working alongside Indigenous people? • Do our libraries contain Indigenous newspapers, magazines and literature?

• Does the curriculum accurately reflect Indigenous history and cultural issues from an Indigenous perspective? • Is an understanding of Indigenous issues a criteria for selection of non Indigenous staff? • If you are an Indigenous person reading this, how have you engaged with school staff to support the education of your sons and daughters? Other similar issues could also have been examined in detail – but one per year is enough! Every school in our Province, and the Province as a whole, has some wonderful stories of success to tell in 2002. But like the followers of Jesus 2000 years ago, and the Brothers in their 2002 Chapter, there are also stories of failure and injustice to be faced. When we do face both parts of our life and story, Jesus will walk with us, and help us into positive action … just like the follower of Jesus on the way to Emmaus. Thank you to all the students, parents and other family members, staff and leaders who have contributed greatly to the Edmund Rice Network in this school during 2002. I hope you celebrate your stories of success! And may your celebration of Christmas, the birthday of Jesus our Brother, who came to teach us how to live happy, loving and just lives – be a wonderful time for you all!! (Br) Kevin P.

he 2002 Budget approved by the Board has enabled the College to continue to focus on improvements in education and continue the refurbishment of the campus. Some of the developments were: the refurbishment of the Primary School area outside the Chapel into a pleasant paved area for quiet reading and lunches; refurbishment of the Senior School library; and further upgrading of Camp Kelly. School Fees

This year various options were available for parents to choose so that they were able to include regular payments within their household budget. Other facilities for fee payment were offered this year, including BPAY and the Trinity College Online Store. These have proved very popular options with parents

The board is confident that the fund-raising appeal together with budgeted borrowings for the finance of planned developments are in place. The College is able to undertake necessary commitments secure in the knowledge that borrowings for past developments are being serviced and will be reduced over coming years. I wish to acknowledge the outstanding contribution of finance committee chairman John Featherby and his committee for the hours spent attending to the finances of the College. Irene Hislop, chairperson of the marketing committee, is to be commended for the work her committee has done in promoting the College, its facilities and the achievements of its staff and students. The favorable enrolment position at Trinity has been enhanced by their efforts. The East Perth Redevelopment Authority (EPRA) plans for future development in the area surrounding Trinity College have been available for public comment. The College has presented parents with materials concerning these plans and will continue to do so over the months ahead. Trinity intends to remain in East Perth. EPRA is aware of this, and has incorporated into its plans and visions for the future the permanent presence of Trinity College. There are opportunities for the College, for further development and enhancements to the campus facilities and grounds. The school’s executive and board will maintain a close involvement in these plans and will continue to consult, and maintain good relationships with EPRA. By now all parents will be aware that Tony Curtis is retiring at the end of the 2003 academic year. The nine years he has been Headmaster have been marked with great

n October the College’s Capital Development Plan and fundraising appeal were launched. In presentations to parents, the College executive reflected upon the major building projects the College had been engaged in over the past ten years and “showcased” the College’s plans for new projects for the future. Next year a new Olympic sized swimming pool incorporating a competition water polo pool will be built and commissioned. The board has supported the generous initiative of the Trinity Old Boys’ Association (TOBA) to upgrade the pavilion and change room facilities at Waterford. TOBA has undertaken to raise all of the finance necessary for this worthwhile and ambitious project and has already received pledges for a significant portion of the expected cost. The administration facilities at Trinity are sorely in need of upgrading. The present facilities are inadequate for the existing executive and administrative staff. They are operating from cramped facilities which makes their task very difficult. Improved facilities for the teaching of music are needed. All are aware of the outstanding contribution the College musicians and vocalists make to the College. The remarkable achievements of Trinity students in all aspects of music over the last several years is all the more commendable when the demands upon existing facilities are taken into account. In an on going endeavour to provide Trinity with the best possible facilities, projects under consideration include the funding and building of a purpose built performing arts centre. The response of parents to the fundraising appeal has been generous and already the College has received many pledges.

improvements in facilities and solid achievement in the academic, sporting, cultural and spiritual areas of College life. On behalf of the Board and, I am sure, the parent body, past and present students and friends of Trinity, I acknowledge with gratitude Tony’s great contribution. The board has determined that a succession committee commence the task of advertising for, and obtaining the services of, a Headmaster to commence in 2004. The provincial and members of the Christian Brothers Province Leadership Team will be involved in that process and ultimately make the final selection. On a personal note I have been a member of the College Board and Chairman over the last eight years. In that time I have admired the foresight, vision and leadership qualities Tony Curtis provides. The College has been fortunate and the quality of his leadership is evident in the facilities, the outstanding achievements of our students and the vision and

planning for the future. It is an honour to have been associated with Tony Curtis and the success of Trinity College over that time. On behalf of the board and all friends of Trinity I thank Tony and trust that he will enjoy 2003 at Trinity and ultimately his well earned retirement. On behalf of the board I also wish to thank the College Bursar, Michael Burgess for the competent and diligent assistance provided to me and the board over the last year. I wish to personally acknowledge his unfailing courtesy and assistance to me. Finally, I wish to thank all board members for the talents, energy and dedication which they have brought to the Board’s deliberations in 2002. Mr Daimlen Bowen Chairman

popular event again drew a large crowd of prospective parents. The assistance of senior Trinity students is always a highlight of this day as the tours they provide are always commented on very favourably. One issue that was discussed during the year was: When will the Parent Council plan for Trinity’s third “Family Fete”? The decision this year has been that 2003 is too early, and that maybe 2004 would a good opportunity for another fete. This decision will, however, belong to the members of next year’s Parent Council. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the members of the 2002 Parent Council for their support, for their ideas and for their work at our functions. I particularly thank those parents who, like me, will have completed their very enjoyable term as a member of the Council: Kerry Garrick, Michael O’Neill, Greg Oliver, Heidi Kellner-Marshall and Gavan Jones.

he Parent Council celebrated its ninth year as a support body at Trinity during 2002. The Parent Council has three main objectives: • To be a representative group of parents that can provide immediate feedback to the Principal on a range of issues; • To initiate and plan for parents social and community building activities; and • To engage in fundraising activities to provide additional resources for the College. One of the first activities organized each year is the Parent Council Sundowner. Held early in Term 1, this event is a wonderful opportunity for parents to gather together on a social basis. It is particularly valuable in providing a venue for new parents to the school to be welcomed. This year the Parent Council were able to thank and farewell Eric Dawson, the College’s Property Services Manager, for his years of dedicated service to Trinity. The second of the major events hosted by the Parent Council on a regular basis is the College’s annual Open Day. Despite some cool weather and a few light showers, this

his year the Aboriginal Student Support and Parent Awareness Committee worked well to support the twenty two indigenous students at Trinity. Chaired by Mr Justin King, the Committee was able to promote individual tutoring and after school homework assistance for a number of students. Another initiative of the Committee was to bring down to Trinity parents of boys from the Kimberley region to join local parents in a three day information sharing and networking workshop.

TOBA Reunion

O

ver eleven months of intensive planning and preparation came to fruition on Saturday, 26 October, 2002 when the Trinity Old Boys' Association hosted Reunion 2002 in the Foley Gymnasium Centre. Approximately 600 former students of CBC Perth and Trinity College attended what turned out to be a wonderful gathering. Reunion 2002 - the first major Reunion since the Centenary Reunion in 1994 - was held to commemorate the 200th Anniversary of the Edmund Rice's first school in Waterford, Ireland. The reunion also marked the 40th Anniversary of the establishment of Trinity College in East Perth, following its relocation in 1962 from the St George's Terrace site - currently occupied by the Duxton Hotel. The evening's proceedings commenced with Year 11 and Year 12 students from the College conducting twilight tours of the College's modern facilities for Old Boys. The tours included a visit to the new Design and Technology Centre, the modern computing and laboratory facilities and the state of the art fully robotic observatory, the only one of its kind in any school in the southern hemisphere. All past students were "blown away" by the wonderful opportunities that modern Trinity students now have. The tour concluded for a convivial "friendship session" on the picturesque lawns of Centenary Park outside the Gymnasium. Old Boys had the opportunity to view

memorabilia, meet their fellow class mates over a refreshing beer or wine and to listen to music performed by members of the award winning Trinity College Pipes and Drums and Swing Bands. As dusk descended over the Swan River, Old Boys were invited to take their seats in the specially laid out Gymnasium and were called to order for the entrance of the official party, led in by members of the College's Pipes and Drums Band. The Reunion had begun in earnest. Grace was said by Brother Pat O'Doherty who had recently retired following 19 consecutive years of service at the College and its students. All present were able to celebrate this truly magnificent effort. Special mention was made of Old Boy Mr Maurice Brockwell ('65) who was a tremendous supporter of and contributor to the College and who recently passed away. Old Boys were then invited to dine on a three-course banquet supplemented by a plentiful supply of beer and wine. The Association would like to thank Mr Chris Brockwell ('67) of Rosie O'Grady's who very kindly donated the beer and soft drinks for the night and to Evans & Tate who provided the wine at a heavily subsidised price. During the night Old Boys were treated to a number of spectacular digital Presentations designed by Mr Paul Abrahams ('95) and Heath Properjohn ('95) of Loaded Studio

This presentation reflected on the Past, Present and the Future of CBC Perth and Trinity College through its Association. The Presentations can best described as follows and give a true indication of the special relationship and undeniable bond that exists between Trinity College and CBC Perth in Keeping The Spirit Alive; The Past, confirming and underwriting the very proud tradition created by CBC Perth. The Present, being the consolidation and further development of this very proud tradition and legacy, so carefully nurtured by CBC Perth and entrusted to Trinity College. The Future, representing the Old Boys' continued support, upholding and defence of this great heritage in Trinity College. Officially unveiled on the night was a specially designed commemorative brass plaque that will be installed in the footpath outside the former site of CBC Perth. Also unveiled was the first ever Crest for the Association designed by Mr Paul Abrahams ('95) and Heath Properjohn ('95). Finally, TOBA's plans for the re-development and upgrade of the pavilion at the College's Waterford Playing Fields in Manning by the provision of a Function Centre to seat 180 people. The proposed development is of particular excitement as it is a very tangible way the Association has chosen to support Trinity College in a practical way. It is hoped that the re-development work will commence towards the end of 2003. In addition, Old Boy' were treated to a special impromptu rendition of Northerly's win in the Caulfield Cup by Master of Ceremonies Darren MacAuley, which raised a substantial donation that will be used to support the Association's future projects. At the conclusion of the night's formal proceedings, there was further opportunity for Old Boys to reminisce with their class mates, particularly those who had not seen one another for many years and in some cases since leaving the College. Indeed, for many, the dinner was only the start of their reunion celebrations, which continued well into the early hours of Sunday morning across the city. On behalf of the Trinity Old Boys' Association I would like to thank Trinity's Principal, Tony Curtis ('56) and his staff for their huge support and encouragement, and for allowing the

Association the opportunity to hold Reunion 2002 within the grounds of the College. As you would imagine, the list of supporters for Reunion 2002 is every long. However, I could not let an opportunity like this go by without special mention of and thanks to Mr Peter Blewett ('70) and Mike Bird ('91) of Perth Audio Visual, Mr Paul Abrahams ('95) and Heath Properjohn ('95) of Loaded Studio, Mr Chris Brockwell ('67) of Rosie O'Grady's, Evans & Tate, our Master of Ceremonies Mr Darren MacAuley, our caterers Heyder and Shears and the many other sponsors and suppliers without whom this night simply would not have been possible. As well, I would like to thank the members of the Reunion Organising Committee for their great work over the past year and the substantial number of volunteers who gave freely of their time to ensure Reunion 2002 was the major success that it proved to be. It is only on an occasion such as this that one realises the huge support and high regard the College enjoys within the general community. All Old Boys', whether active or otherwise, should be very proud of the past achievements of CBC and Trinity, and should be very proud of the great reputation it currently enjoys as one of the outstanding schools in Perth. I trust that those who attended Reunion 2002 enjoyed themselves and are looking forward to the next TOBA Reunion. In the meantime, wherever your work or family commitments lead you in the future, please make sure that you keep in contact with your Association by regularly updating your contact details either electronically via our website at www.trinity.wa.edu.au/oldboys or by contacting the College on 9325 3655. A few minutes of your time is all it takes to ensure that you are kept up to date with all matters TOBA. Finally, and in keeping with the origins of the Edmund Rice family, I would like to close with an old Irish Blessing. "May the road rise up to meet you and may the wind be always at your back. May the rains fall softly upon your fields and may the sun shine warmly upon your face. May God hold you in the palm of His hand. And may you be half and hour in heaven before the devil knows you're dead." Mr Darren Taggart Vice-President,TOBA Executive Chairman Reunion 2002

Kelly, the College was able to have as its special guests Dr Tim Delaney (Head Prefect in 1962) and Mr Chris Lalor (Dux of 1962). The Trinity Old Boys’ Association’s 2002 Reunion had as one of its themes the celebration of 40 years on the Trinity site. Nearly six hundred past students – many from CBC – were able to recognize the achievements of the College on the two sites. Perhaps the most significant and tangible mark of the occasion was the unveiling of a special bronze plaque to be located in the footpath outside the Duxton Hotel in St George’s Terrace – the original site of CBC – to serve as a permanent reminder of the fact that CBC Perth was located there for nearly seventy years of its history. In a strong gesture of good will, the Trinity Old Boys’ Association have invited the Old Aquinians’ Association to join with them in jointly recognizing CBC’s former location.

orty years ago CBC Perth transferred from St George’s Terrace to a new site near the WACA and was renamed Trinity College. One of the reasons for the move was the fact that the State Government wanted to have the College’s city site for a new hotel as part of its preparation for the staging of the Empire (now Commonwealth) Games. After much discussion, the Headmaster of the time, Br J A Kelly, negotiated for a transfer of land and for the building of a new school including a hall and chapel. Both these structures were significant architectural features of the new Trinity College and reflected the vision of Br Kelly and the College’s architect, Mr Jim Henderson. Br Kelly and Mr Henderson were able to visit the College during the year and were delighted at the development in facilities they saw. A special 40th Anniversary Assembly in September provided a strong focus for students and staff to celebrate this important event in the College’s history. As well as Br

Special Ministers

his year Campus Ministry has continued to offer unique and challenging opportunities through which students, parents and staff could deepen their understanding and experience of themselves as human persons and their faith as Christians. We have tried to enable each student to develop a deep and lasting commitment to that vision of being “men for others”. Campus Ministry activities are designed to promote prayer, both personal and communal, and individual reflection. This year a nineteen page section of carefully selected prayers was added to the school Diary to enable more variety in class prayer. So too, every homeroom teacher received a new book with daily reflections for the whole year. The school community has also enthusiastically adopted the Christian Brothers aspiration of: “Live Jesus in our hearts, forever”, as the conclusion for all prayer. A sequential programme of retreats and days of reflection were offered to all students, and the four day residential retreat known as Kairos (see following article) was offered to all Year 12 senior students. These retreats offered occasions for students to grow in self-knowledge and esteem, in interpersonal relations and their awareness of God’s presence in their lives.

Twenty five senior students volunteered and undertook a two day training programme to become Special Ministers of the Eucharist, having received the endorsement of their Parish priests. The Year 12 students served the whole community reverently and well throughout the year at all of the school and class Masses, especially at the Christian Brothers Bicentennial Mass at the Entertainment Centre. Likewise many boys from different Year Levels volunteered to serve Mass throughout the year. There was never any shortage of volunteers to read at Masses. Music Ministry

In addition, many students were very happy to be involved in Music Ministry and provide instruments and voices to lead the congregation. Coordinated by Miss Ruth Bott, this grouop added a great vitality and zest to our Liturgies. It is heartening to see so many boys who are keen and proud to play their music and sing in front of their peers. Brother Rob Callen Director of Campus Ministry

Edmund Rice Bicentenary Mass

D

uring 2002, the College recognized the establishment of Edmund Rice’s first school in New Street, Waterford in a number of ways. However, the most memorable and spectacular of these was the joint Bicentenary Mass celebrated at the Perth Entertainment Centre on Friday 11 May. Students, staff and parents from all the schools owned and operated by the Christian Brothers participated in this wonderful event. The Planning Committee, chaired by Trinity’s Deputy Principal Rob Marshall, planned for a Mass that would remain in the minds of all present. Accordingly, much time and effort went into making sure that there was strong participation from all the schools involved – whether as altar servers, special ministers, readers, choir and band members, members of the “Ireland 1802” drama group, school banner bearers, ushers and other helpers. Two giant screens ensured that all students could follow in detail the progress of the Mass. Trinity and Aquinas students dramatized a tableaux of impoverished Irish street kids who were the beneficiaries of Edmund Rice’s educational and charitable work. Well known Jesuit priest, Fr Paddy Meagher, led the celebration of the Mass and delivered a though-provoking and powerful homily that caught the imagination of all who participated. Following the Mass, all Trinity students were presented with a medal to commemorate the Bicentenary Year.

Kairos: faith development in action “It’s the greatest thing I’ve ever done in my life!” That was the profound reaction of one of the 22 Year 12 students from Trinity College who recently participated in the College’s inaugural Kairos Retreat. Having its origins some 15 years ago in the Cursillo Movement out of the United States, the Kairos Retreat is credited as having ‘turned around’ the faith life of those schools in which it has been adopted. Initially embraced by a number of Jesuit High Schools, the initiative has since expanded throughout the United States and has now arrived in Perth (in its entirety) due largely to the persistence of Trinity College’s Director of Campus Ministry, Br Rob Callen. “Kairos” is the Greek word for time, but unlike chronos, it means the Lord’s time – that special moment in one’s life. The Kairos retreat runs for four days and three nights, and is offered only to Year 12 students.

he recalled. “What really stood out was the retreats brought the Catholicity of the schools to the fore; they were not simply Catholic by name.” In the five years since his return, Br Callen continued to push for the introduction of Kairos to Perth; the success coming earlier this year with the endorsement of his proposal by the College. Introducing Kairos In order to lay a strong foundation for the continued operation of the retreats, four senior students and two staff members from Bellarmine College Prep. in San Jose, California (a host school during the 1997 tour) were sponsored by the College to introduce and facilitate Kairos #1 that was held at Moore River (Guilderton). This was a necessity as the main feature of the Kairos retreat is that it is run by students, with adult supervision. As it was their first retreat the Trinity boys hadn’t had any previous exposure to the operations of Kairos, hence the invitation to the Americans. Future retreats will now be led by a core group of four students from the retreat held immediately previous to the current one. In fact, Kairos #2 was held at the end of August and was conducted by Trinity students.

The Kairos phenomenon Br Callen was first introduced to the Kairos phenomenon in 1997 during a knowledge sharing tour of eight US Jesuit high schools. “I remember being taken aback by the effect these retreats were having on the young people who participated in them,”

Front Row: Rob Marshall (Trinity), Vinh Tran (Bellarmine), Marya Stewart (Trinity), Geronimo Desumala - Rector (Bellarmine), Jake Casey - Assistant Rector (Bellarmine) Four main elements Similar to programs such as Marriage Encounter and Antioch where students and teachers address participants on issues that build on personal witness and testimony, the Kairos retreats are essentially based on the four main elements of: 1. 2. 3. 4.

Personal faith development At Trinity, the Kairos Retreat will become an integral part of school’s personal faith development program which consists of three elements: 1. Head – the formal academic Religious Education curriculum. 2. Heart – Campus Ministry: retreats, liturgy, prayer, spiritual direction, chaplaincy. 3. Hands – Christian Service: going out into the community and ‘living the faith’ – Christian witness.

Who am I? Who is Christ? Who is Christ for me? What now for the future?

In addition, there are certain key elements to each retreat that help to make the experience all the more powerful. One of the main messages from the retreat is, if you want to know God, you don’t necessarily need to look for visions or miracles because he is present in all those around you. I have been involved with school retreats both in South Australia and Western Australia for the last 20 years, but nothing I have seen has the profound personal impact on the kids as Kairos does. For one of the participants in Kairos #1 the experience was likened to the excitement and anticipation of Christmas. “You know on Christmas Eve when you’re lying in bed wandering what you’re going to get and then on Christmas morning you can’t wait to open your presents? That is what Kairos is like - it’s like opening a surprise package, and it’s a great surprise,” he said. In order to provide consistency in its impact, every retreat operates under the same framework that is fully scripted in the accompanying Kairos manual. As previously mentioned, the person who facilitates the retreat (the rector) is a student, as are the assistant rectors. Similarly the students set the boundaries or ‘rules’ and oversee the entire operation of the event. Music is a special feature of the retreat and the leaders carefully select both contemporary and liturgical songs for each talk.

One-off experience With the Kairos experience now established at the College it is anticipated the retreats will be run each term. Those who participate only do so once, with the exception of the four leaders who facilitate a second. Given the ‘level playing field’ structure of the retreat program, it is not necessarily the natural leaders who become the Kairos leaders as the focus is placed on personal faith development. The Christian Brothers were founded for the evangelisation of youth and Kairos is real evangelisation in action. At times in the classroom it can be a bit hit and miss, but with Kairos you can actually see the results of your efforts. For a lot of the staff as well, Kairos has really clicked; it’s a new initiative that has captured the interest of the students who, suddenly, are proud to stand up for and profess their faith. Once word gets out I would not be surprised if Kairos takes off as the ‘retreat of choice’ in our schools. Brother Rob Callen Director of Campus Ministry

his year we began to develop and expand the Christian Service Programme at trinity College with the ultimate aim that in the near future students at all levels of College life will be involved in service with others in need. This programme seeks to make the gospel demand to care for the poor and oppressed a reality which will change the lives of our students, just as it changed the life of Blessed Edmund Rice.

“The experience for myself took place at the Edmund Rice Refugee Centre. One of the most enjoyable aspects of the week was a visit to Br Olly’s Workshop.

This year was the eleventh year of the blessed Edmund Rice Christian Service Programme. All Year 11 students spend one week of the school term giving service to the community in various places where they can interact with people in need. The relationships which develop during the week are very special and the reflections that follow are just a small sample of many profound insights that the students shared through the journals that they kept during the week.

“I was privileged to enter this placement. It was not only an eye opener, as through the helping of others we developed a relationship and bonded with them. It tested a lot of our skills in general such as patience, tolerance, communication and challenged us not just socially but also performing the required tasks correctly. One of the people we met was Brian, a poorly dressed but dignified man. Often I saw him put his boot up on to a bench to do up his laces. He still walks with his head held high. He is often beaten up, and robbed, an innocent and defenceless man. We all spent a few hours during the last day helping him to clean up his place. Although he is naturally an untidy man, his kindness and good heart prevails and even though his small apartment is only fit for one, he invites others to

It’s just such a pleasure to help people in need, making them feel happy and also getting a feeling inside that makes you feel good because of what you have done for others. I think I have found out that there is something about myself that attracts people who need care and I know that I can help because this is what I like doing. Without this experience I wouldn’t have discovered this and I wouldn’t have had people who needed the care come close to me. This experience has changed my life for the better.” Shayn Krop

Senior Project

At the end of Year 11 in 2002 all students were invited to make real some of the sentiments expressed here. Over the summer holidays and through first semester of Year 12 they will be asked to participate in the Christian Service Senior Project. Every senior student is challenged to commit 40 hours of their own time to serve people in need within their community. Through regular direct contact with others in real need, our students will become truly dedicated young ‘men for others’ in the tradition of Blessed Edmund Rice. Year 8: Serving our Neighbour

All Year 8 students were introduced to the concept of Christian Service through their Religious Education classes. They were challenged to reflect on the communities in which they live, their homes, school, parish and local neighbourhood. After four weeks of classroom discussion and activities to raise their awareness, students launched enthusiastically into a project of 15 hours service responding to the needs of people in their family and neighbourhood. Through involvement in Christian service, students discover gifts in themselves and others. The relationships which grow out of these experiences are life giving and life changing. Over the coming years there will be many more opportunities made available for our students to put their faith into action. Undoubtedly they will rise to the challenge.

“The Christian Service experience was one that has changed and improved my perspective on life and it is an experience that I will forever remember. I established many good relationships with people at the Emmanuel Centre. I have learnt that all people ar valuable, that they are all good and that Jesus is in everyone of them. People who attend this Centre are often neglected in society and this place was a tremendous opportunity to interact with others. It is a place for all, where everyone fits in, regardless of ability or disability. The people have left a positive mark on my life in my development as a true and honest Christian person. I was able to use my gifts during my service. One example was when I played the piano for guests. To see and hear someone making music brought great delight to the people. Something that struck me during this experience was that “able” people think that because a person is severely disabled that they deserve less quality food and so on. I learnt that all people are valuable and should be treated equally.”

Eddie Rice Outreach instance, visits to Brother Olly’s workshop, this year’s Harmony Day and the sponsoring of a child from overseas. From its humble beginnings, Eddie Rice Outreach has become a living reflection of Blessed Edmund Rice’s vision for the Christian Brothers and schools alike. In the past two years, students and teachers involved have laid solid foundations for a worthwhile cause. It is a tribute to all involved that they are willing to give of their time and themselves for the sake of helping the wider community.

E

ddie Rice Outreach is a group of students who get together to plan and be a part of projects that benefit the wider community. It was formed in 2000 and in the tradition of Edmund Rice, it was designed to give students a chance to put faith into action. The eagerness expressed by many students is itself a promising sign of the generous nature of many of the members of the college. Thus, the group’s existence has exceeded the expectations of many of its organisers and has continued on into 2002 growing in stature and size. Eddie Rice Outreach is now run by the students and is operating on the philosophy of doing instead of just saying. Being more than just a mere fundraising body, Eddie Rice Outreach has been involved in a number of activities. For

his year a core of Year 11 students faithfully attended our weekly meeting to receive information about abuses of human rights in different parts of the world and to write letters of support for victims of violations. Some students

from Years 12 and 10 also generously came along and a small brave contingent from Years 9 and 8. One of the highlights of the year was the Network Meeting at Trinity on the 25 March. Students joined us from Santa Maria, Iona and Perth College. It was an opportunity for us to share experiences, afternoon tea and ideas on how to get involved in Amnesty International activities. We came away better informed about different issues including refugees. We also participated in a Network Meeting at Perth College in May. On another occasion Daniel Fripp, a very dynamic speaker, addressed all Year 11 students about Amnesty which increased interest and participation in the organisation. Year 11 students were actively involved in the Candle Day street collection, increasing their effort from last year.

n Sunday 1 December fourteen students and four teachers left Perth for five weeks in India. On Saturday night they were commissioned during a special Mass in the Trinity Chapel. This is Trinity College’s sixth Pilgrimage. The first was led by Mr Jim McGinnis in 1991. Jim now lives and works permanently in Calcutta. Others were led by Br Pat O’Doherty. This pilgrimage is being led by Br Rob Callen. This journey is called a “Pilgrimage” and not a “trip” because it has a sacred purpose, and it reminds us that we are not tourists, but rather visitors who have come to both give and receive; to learn and to love; to enjoy and to embrace friends from another culture. The boys have paid their own fares and will be away from family and friends for Christmas and New Year’s eve. They will learn much about others, but they will also learn so much about themselves. These pilgrims take with them $35,000 mission money raised by the Trinity school community, and on behalf of the College the boys will make donations to seven different projects:

Our pilgrims will spend time working in some of these centres and learning from the Indian Christian Brothers about their ministry. They will also spend time working with the Missionaries of Charity in Calcutta in Shishu Bivhan (abandoned babies), Kalighat (the dying destitute), Nabo Jibon (homeless children), Prem Dan (mentally ill) and Titigarth (people with leprosy). The pilgrimage is an opportunity provided by the College for our students to put their faith into action and to immerse themselves in another culture and to live the ideals of Blessed Edmund Rice – “to give to the poor in handfuls”.

Proposed Waterford Function Centre

A

“The TOBA Executive is delighted that the Trinity Board has strongly supported this concept,” he said. “The possibilities for its use are many indeed: sporting fixtures, school retreats, staff functions, Old Boy and family celebrations, and even wedding receptions following a wedding in the Trinity Chapel.” The College has included $150,000 in its budget for 2003 towards parking and other works to support the project including an upgrade of the Changerooms. The TOBA Executive has undertaken to raise the funds required to construct the new Function Centre.

n exciting new project is being planned for Trinity’s playing fields at Waterford. The College Board has agreed to a proposal from the Trinity Old Boys Association to add a first floor Function Centre to the changeroom facilities. This TOBA initiative has brought forward by a number of years the prospect of a major overhaul of the Waterford facilities which are not coping adequately with the numbers now attending Saturday morning PSA sporting fixtures. TOBA’s President, Les Conceicao, advised that the plan is to construct a Function Centre with seating capacity for about 180 people. The Centre would have its own foyer, kitchen, bar and toilet facilities. A special feature proposed is a verandah on three sides and an extensive covered outside viewing platform.

and will be less expensive that the traditional concrete construction. Perhaps the most significant change from traditional pool construction, is with the filtration system. This is an area that the Project Team spent a great deal of time analysing and researching because this was considered to be one of the most critical aspects of the whole project. A decision was made to install a New Zealand designed vacuum filtration system. This will be the first time this system has been used in Australia. The new pool will be heated for all year use, and will have water polo capacity to FINA standards (33.3m length at 2m depth). The Project Team has also included provisions for lighting, shade and spectator areas. Now that all the preliminary planning work has been done, the College hopes to commence the project as early as possible in 2003, and have a new pool in operation by Term 4.

or the past three years the Trinity Board has been grappling with the problems due to the sinking of its 25m swimming pool. The pool is the only structure at Trinity not supported by piles. During 2002, a Project Team was established to plan for a replacement pool. After much discussion and consultation, the Project Team recommended to the Board that the College plan for a new 50m pool with water polo capacity. The Board accepted this recommendation and the Project Team then commenced planning for the new pool. Because the new pool would require extensive piling, the Project Team included non traditional as well as traditional options in its planning processes. The final decision has been innovative – in fact it will have features which will be unique to an Australian school. One decision has been to build a Myrtha stainless steel pool with a PVC liner – rather than the traditional concrete pool. This pool has distinct advantages for the Trinity site

East Perth Gateway Masterplan a number of specific issues that need further discussion and planning. The Board’s formal response can be viewed on the College’s website (www.trinity.wa.edu.au). The most contentious issue is no doubt the proposal to build a road between Trinity and the WACA. Whilst this new road could have some advantages in improving traffic flow, it certainly poses some problems for the College. The first phase of development will be on the former Bus Depot site between Hay Street and Adelaide Terrace. EPRA now owns this site and is planning for mixed-use residential and commercial development.

T

he East Perth Gateway Masterplan was launched by the Minister for Planning and Infrastructure, Alannah McTiernan, on Sunday 7 July, 2002. The development of the Masterplan was coordinated by the East Perth Redevelopment Authority (EPRA). The Masterplan covers a forty hectare area near Trinity bounded by Plain Street, Adelaide Terrace, the Swan River foreshore and the recently redeveloped parts of East Perth. In developing the Masterplan, EPRA consulted extensively with the College and other stakeholders. Whilst the College supported the overall thrust of the Plan, there are

Key Features of the Draft Masterplan 1

ICON GATEWAY

BUS DEPOT SITE

The draft Masterplan proposes an upgraded and more spectacular entrance to the city via Adelaide Terrace with a visually attractive new “icon” building visible as you travel across the causeway.

The redevelopment of the five hectare block bounded by Hay Street, Plain Street and Adelaide Terrace will form the first phase of the Masterplan. The former Bus Depot site, which is now vacant, will be the first parcel of land to be redeveloped.

7

HAY STREET RIVER NODE

The development of a waterway and mixed-use pier structure is an interesting concept that would provide an attractive entry statement to the city. However, the loss of public open space which Trinity students use for sports training would be a problem for the College. The Masterplan also proposes taking Hay Street down to the river in a straight line. Such a development would open up the river visually to all who use Hay Street and make the river more accessible to the community. 3

THE RIVERFRONT

Along the riverfront, a sequence of landscaped spaces from riverside parkland to broadwalks and inlets, will provide a range of recreational opportunities. 8

RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT

Another major residential redevelopment is planned for the area to the north of Queens Gardens, the WACA and Trinity College. In all the two mixed-use residential and commercial developments could create the opportunity for 6,000 new residents into the Eastern Gateway area.

QUEENS GARDENS

Queens Gardens is described by the planners as the “jewel in the crown” for the area. The development of Queens Gardens and creating greater accessibility to and through the Gardens would be a significant benefit for the community generally.

Obviously the new road between Trinity and the WACA is a proposal of great significance which will impact on the College in a number of ways.

Trinity College will remain a city school. However, the draft Masterplan does have significant implications for the College. (Refer to the College’s web site and follow the links to the College’s response to the Masterplan).

WACA

The Masterplan takes into account the WACA’s proposals for redevelopment. Trinity and the WACA have had a mutually beneficial and strong working relationship over many years and it is anticipated that this will continue if the Masterplan is implemented. 5

TRINITY COLLEGE

However, the Masterplan also sketches in an expansion of Trinity College northwards – and indeed includes two major new buildings on the expanded site (possibly a new Administration Centre and a new Performing Arts Centre) on ground which is currently Nelson Avenue.

NEW CIVIC SQUARE

EPRA’s Masterplan assumes that the Trotting Association will relocate from Gloucester Park. The redevelopment proposal incorporates a new civic place – the Gloucester Park Circus – which will be a central community focal point for the area.

kitchen. This facility provided more space for the kitchen and allowed for improvements to the working and servery areas. In addition, the old wood heater was replaced with a new gas system. The new gas heater is very efficient and is easy to operate. This has great advantages for various groups who now hire out the centre each week when the College does not need to use the camp.

uring 2002, further steps were taken to upgrade the outdoor education facilities at Trinity’s Camp Kelly in Dwellingup. Following the building of two new accommodation wings, and the development of a female ablution block in recent years, this year’s project saw the upgrading of the kitchen and hot water facilities. The main improvement this year was the addition of a coolroom to the end of the

Brother Pat Farewell

A

Much of Br Pat’s early working life was spent caring for young students in orphanages run by the Brothers. In

t a special senior assembly on Tuesday 6 August 2002, the Trinity Secondary School extended its best wishes to Br Pat O’Doherty on his retirement. This was a momentous occasion as Br Pat had served young people for over fifty years as a Christian Brother. At the assembly, Head Prefect Matthew Spencer presented Br Pat with a return ticket to Ireland and wished him “bon voyage” on behalf of the students for a well earned holiday. Br Pat has been a member of the Trinity community for the past nineteen years – in a variety of roles. For the past nine years Br Pat has worked in the area of pastoral support for students, leaving his position as a maths teacher and concentrating on helping to develop a new Campus Ministry program at the College. One of the important projects that Br Pat worked tirelessly at developing was the wonderful Christian Service Program for all Year 11 students. At the end of the First Term each year, all Year 11 students were allocated placements in institutions throughout the community, where they worked to care for people in circumstances of need. This work required extensive preparation and debriefing. Br Pat also led six groups of senior students on a biennial Pilgrimage through India where they were able to live with and work for a time with very disadvantaged groups of people. This has been a wonderful experience for the boys concerned – an experience which will remain with them for the rest of their lives. Earlier in the year Br Pat was able to welcome Mrs Marya Stewart to Trinity and handover to her the responsibility for the developing Christian Service Program at Trinity. Br Pat also passed on to Br Rob Callen responsibility for Campus Ministry in general and the India Pilgrimages in particular.

these years Br Pat earned a reputation as an able and very caring teacher and administrator. In all these years Br Pat’s life was one of service. At Trinity Br Pat constantly urged students to live out the gospel message by following the ideals of Edmund Rice for them “to be men for others”. He also urged students to show daily the qualities of “courtesy, commitment and service”. These qualities have now become enshrined in the culture of Trinity and have become an ideal for students to work towards. At the assembly farewelling Br Pat, the Principal advised students that Br Pat was retiring at the age of seventy seven – over a decade later than most people retire. “This is a momentous decision for Br Pat – as helping young boys has been a lifetime’s work,” he said. “And it is also a momentous occasion for us, as this week will close the chapter on a wonderful working life.” The story is related of some Year 10 students at a sporting fixture one Saturday morning. A new student asked his friends “Who’s that guy over there?” The reply came back “That’s Br Pat. He’s a legend.” So, Br Pat – teacher, friend, helper, mentor and legend – we thank you for your devoted life and work for us. We have been inspired by your faithfulness, your integrity and your commitment to your life of service. And now we wish you every happiness in the next stage of your life.

Primary School


Primary School

I

look back over 2002 with a sense of achievement and pride. The Primary School has once again accomplished a great deal with many highlights throughout the year. Perhaps the most significant and memorable event was the Bicentennial Mass. This Eucharist brought together all Christian Brothers’ Schools from throughout Western Australia to celebrate and remember the humble beginnings of the first Edmund Rice School in Ireland. It was indeed a very moving experience and one I’m sure will be remembered for many years to come. The Year 5 Camp at Forest Edge was also a huge success. I was particularly impressed by the way in which the boys interacted with each other, as well as the strong sense of community spirit amongst the parents and staff who attended. It is often said that the Trinity community has a special quality which is difficult to define, but clearly seen when our generous parents come together to care for the boys in our school. The introduction of dance to our school curriculum has added yet another dimension to the overall development of our students. All of our boys have had the opportunity to participate in dance lessons, whether it be at the classroom level or through the extension group called ‘Boys in Groove’. Recent research has indicated that our sons need many and varied opportunities to express themselves, particularly through the Arts. The Junior School, through the expertise of Mr John Lamborn and Ms Ruth Bott, has provided these opportunities. The work of these teachers and their students was clearly obvious at both the JSHAA Art Exhibition and the Catholic Performing Arts Festival. It is important to note that ‘Boys in Groove’ were awarded the Presentation Sisters Award for the best creative dance performance in their particular section and all boys who represented our College in both events did so in an exemplary manner.

Faith Dimension

In a world of growing uncertainty, change and at times danger, our Faith is often called upon for reassurance in times

of need. It is a gift and therefore should be treasured. As educators we play a crucial role in shaping and nurturing the Faith of the students entrusted to our care. Class Eucharists and Sacramental programs provide an opportunity for the Primary School to come together in a special way to celebrate our Faith. The preparation involved in the Sacrament of Confirmation is a very powerful Mr Mark Hackett journey and one that has special meaning for both the Confirmation candidates and their families. First Holy Communion is also a significant moment in the Faith journey of our Year 4 students. Religious Education lessons are also very important in the spiritual development of the students, although witness to our Faith is apparent in all facets of College life and not simply confined to one lesson per day. The boys are regularly reminded of the Gospel message to ‘Love your neighbour as yourself’ and to treat others the way you would like to be treated. To live their Faith.

Curriculum

Creative teaching methods, relevant curriculum and clear assessment procedures are all critical ingredients in creating a successful learning environment within a school. Both teachers and school leaders play a pivotal role in shaping school environments that are conducive to learning and catering for the needs of the students. Motivating students to engage in the learning process and adapting teaching practices to meet the varying needs of all students is the challenge that we face. Finding the spark that ignites the thirst to learn is by no means an easy task. Here at Trinity we aim to provide a variety of learning opportunities in an attempt to capture each child’s imagination so that our students can all realise their full potential. This year our curriculum focus has been to develop a school based literacy plan. Recent media reports have PRIMARY SCHOOL HOUSE CAPTAINS Back: Shannon Okely, Danny McAuliffe, Benjamin Adams, Thomas Rose focussed on boys’ education and the fact Middle: Ashby Keay, Jacob Brennan, Benjamin Norman, Robert Faraone that they are generally not achieving as Front: Steven McGuire, Calum O’Connell, Mr Mark Hackett (Head of Primary), James Walters, Dyllon Smith well as girls across all areas of the curriculum.

A significant amount of funds have been allocated for the Mr Mark Hackett implementation of our new literacy strategy by providing Head of Primary School increased teacher support and new resources. Our current list of extension programs will be improved and grow to incorporate all students. Programs such as drama, media studies and design and technology are a few of the exciting opportunities that will be made available to our students. A tour to Canberra is also planned during the mid semester break.

Primary Events

Fathers’ Day Breakfast delicious fruit, served by Ms Bott and some of the boys. There was also loads of coffee for the dads too. There was a superb raffle run by the Year 6 Boys, with about 25 prize hampers. It raised roughly $600 over about three weeks. Thanks to the teachers who organised the event and thanks also to the boys who sold the raffle tickets.

F

riday the 30th of August was no ordinary day. It was a special day. It was the day known as the Trinity Junior School’s annual Fathers’ Day Breakfast. There was plenty to do for all the dads who came. They could play handball, chess, checkers, Uno, Connect Four or cards with their sons, or they could eat the magnificent layout of food. There were hot dogs, thanks to Mr. Curtis, Mr. Chitty, Mr Hamer, Mrs Kelly, and plenty more, and there was

Mothers’ Day Mass 2002 the same. The Year Fours did something completely different; they dressed up in white robes and did a liturgical dance in front of the congregation. It was nearly over when the priest gave out the blessed Body of Christ. The priest ended the Mothers’ Day Mass and Mr Hackett went to the microphone and said how well we behaved. The Mothers’ Day Raffle, for which the Year Sevens sold the tickets one week before, was about to be drawn. Mr Hackett drew all of the winning tickets. After the raffle was drawn the mothers went to the Hall to have morning tea while we went back to class to work.

O

n the Tenth of May the whole of the Primary school went to the Chapel to celebrate the Mothers’ Day Mass. The Chapel was packed to the very last seat. It was decorated with many beautiful flowers and our excellent music teacher, Ms Bott, played a variety of hymns on the piano. We could sit next to our mothers during the mass. If your mum didn’t come you had to sit with your teacher. Our principal, Mr Hackett, started the Mass by saying nice and generous things to the mothers. The priest welcomed us to the mass and we sang a hymn. After the hymn the Year Sevens recited funny and interesting poems about their mothers. The Year Sixes and the Year Fives did

Bott has been very patient and has helped us to improve our harmony. To reward us for all our hard work, Ms Bott and Mr Hackett decided to take us bowling. This was really fun and was (we all thought) very well deserved by all, including Ms Bott who had run herself ragged to help us prepare for all our performances. Ms Bott and Mr Campana are the biggest helpers in choir and the most vital people too. Without Mr Campana we would not have had any musical accompaniment and without Ms Bott we wouldn't have anyone to conduct us!

2002 was a very busy year for the Choral groups. We had five performances to do so we had to do extensive practice. First up was the Edmund Rice Bicentennial Mass. We had to stand up at the Entertainment Centre for about 3 hours, but all in all it was very enjoyable. Also in Term 1, we performed in Gibney Hall for the Music Assembly. We then had the biggest one, the Catholic Performing Arts Festival. This took a lot of extra practice, even going through the whole of lunchtime! But in the end, it all paid off. We got all of the categories outstanding, excellent, and very good. This year we have tried to perfect our harmony skills. Ms

Everyone in the Elastic Band has stretched their skills and has turned up every Wednesday morning consistently. Thank you Ms Bott, and all the players in the Band.

Boys In Groove have had an exciting year. We had lots of performances in Term 3: The Catholic Performing Arts Festival, JSHHA Art Exhibition held at Carmel School, The Performing Arts Finale which was performed at the Perth Concert Hall and the Catholic Schools Carnival held in Forrest Place. Our fantastic costumes were made by Mrs Rosanne Heary. In the Catholic Performing Arts Festival we won the Presentation Sister's Award for best creative dance thanks to Ms Ruth Bott. Boys In Groove have travelled everywhere; we especially liked the Burswood which was great. Boys In Groove have participated in many workshops. We had a professional break-dancer, an Aboriginal dancer and a Bizcircus Gymnast who came to the school to help us with acrobalancing. B.I.G is the first ever Dance Group at Trinity and is coordinated by Ms Bott. The school and B.I.G is very grateful for having Ms Bott as a great music teacher and as the Boys In Groove director.

Book Week theme and we combined the ideas of reading and eating to come up with our recipe circles. We had to include a book to read while we were eating the results of our cooking. The recipes are now in files as part of our library resources. Year 7 Green was keen to see Mr Chitty’s famous pizza recipe, but unfortunately he cheated and resorted to a call to Dougie! Also in Book Week, 5 Blue and 7 Green visited the Perth City Library to hear the West Australian author, Elaine Forrestall, speak about writing. This was very entertaining, as the boys were familiar with some of her books. A highlight this year was a new book by our resident author, Mr Eaton. He wrote “Nathan Nuttboard Hits the Beach” and before it was published, he came over and read it to the Year 6 Green boys. They thought it was great and a group of them did a wonderful job performing scenes from the book at the official launch in the Senior Library. Well done Mr Godwin for his super script writing and directorial skills!

active all year and during Terms 2 and 3 we had four teams in the Interschool Chess Competition. They all performed well, but the best part was our C Red team winning their grand final. We’re looking forward to having a trophy to proudly display. Well done to all the Chess boys and to the mums and dads who drove the teams to away venues! What’s happened to the Baudelaires? Mr Snickett, give us more. And why has J.K.Rowling stopped at Number 4? But that’s OK because there are some great new books around, like Artemis and Molly Moon and Foul Facts to be found. And Mr Eaton’s Nathan, Captain Underpants and such. Of course, disgusting Andy, he is just too much! Ms Janine Wyatt Junior School Librarian

O

for breakfast, and then went abseiling. I was a bit scared and excited at first as it was my first time ever. It was FUN!! Sam Harris was very quick going down the abseiling wall. We went to wall climbing and I got up both the purple and orange and a small way up the overhang. Frank got 1/4 of the way on the complete upside down of the overhang, and fell! After that, we went to the Incentive Course. We found out that Sam Harris had a leach on him. It was about 4cm long. After dinner we watched a video called “Angels In The Outfield”. Halfway through the video we stopped it and had some supper of cake and milo, mmm! Day three, I got up and dressed as soon as possible. We had boomerang making and clean-up, followed by boomerang throwing. We had a barbecue lunch and then went home. At the boomerang making, I spent most of my time filing it into shape. After that, I painted it with red, blue, yellow and black. Then we went to clean up the camp area. When we went boomerang throwing, I almost took Mr Hamer’s head off! Then it was time to go. We all had a good time. I would like to go there again sometime. IT WAS FUN!!!

n Wednesday, the 15th of March 2002, 65 Year 5 students, 13 dads, and 5 teachers from Trinity College Junior School went to Waroona to camp. This camp is approximately one and a half hours south of Trinity driving by bus. On Wednesday, we got to camp. I thought it was going to be a short ride, but it turned out to be longer than anticipated but I can cope with that. When we got to camp we sat down in our groups and had the hat presentations and doughnuts. After that, we went canoeing and raft-building. Yes! I went the full way up the stream with Mr Rees and we saw musk ducks, shags and more ducks. It was like the Knysa Lagoon, but not as many birds. On the raft building, everyone was paying attention to what was going on except one person. Everyone tied the ropes up tightly. The raft was going well and everything until one of the knots came undone. The raft sank and we were shipwrecked. One of the fathers fell into the water. It was very funny. After that we went back to camp and we had dinner. After dinner we played “Red Faces” which was very funny, and then we had a Quiz Night. Day two began in a very noisy way. I got dressed and went down the steps to brush my teeth. I ate three pancakes

Michael McMahon concelebrated with the Archbishop and he also gave generously of his time to attend our retreats and celebrated a very personal Mass with the boys.

A

ll classes had opportunities to prepare School Eucharists this year. Teachers placed a great deal of emphasis on these Masses to make them special for the boys preparing the Mass as well as for the rest of the school community. Special thanks to Fr. John McGannon for leading our Eucharistic Celebrations. He always has a good story to share and Fr. John always relates well with the boys. He has developed a special rapport with the students and they responded very well to him. Father John has also been a central figure in our Sacramental Programmes this year. Besides being part of the main celebrations he has also supported the staff by attending parent information evenings and being very involved in all class liturgical programmes. Term 1 commenced with our Holy Week Assemblies. Year 4 Green was responsible for Palm Sunday, 5 Green Holy Thursday, 6 Green Good Friday and 7 Green Easter Sunday. Needless to say, teachers highlighted the significance of these events and created a very prayerful atmosphere.

First Holy Communion

Our First Holy Communion took place on the 23rd August, 2002. The parent helpers did a wonderful job preparing the Chapel which helped to make our celebration extra special. The programme involved six weeks of preparation and included a day retreat at the Schoenstatt Shrine in Armadale. The boys visited the Shrine and Sr. Lissett reminded them how special they are in the eyes of God. The boys also made a First Holy Communion candle which was used at the Mass. We enacted the last supper and the boys made the bread for this. Sr. Lissett was very impressed with the knowledge displayed by the boys and their active participation in all activities. All boys were well prepared to receive the Sacrament and I am sure that they will remember their First Holy Communion Day for many years to come.

Confirmation

Our Confirmation Programme ran very smoothly, thanks to the generosity of all parents who facilitated the Home Programme. Families had an opportunity to explore the significance of the Sacrament as well as support their sons in a very intimate way. Thanks to Ryan Chitty and Tony Maxfield for preparing the boys in class as well as leading the boys on the retreat at Camp Kelly.

Year 4 Year 4 Blue

Year 4 Green

Year 4 students had a great start to life at Trinity College. Lent started the second week of Term 1 and we celebrated Shrove Tuesday by making pancakes. Quite a few Mums came to help us make the pancakes. The boys enjoyed making and more so eating them. Many thanks to all the mums for bringing in the ingredients and utensils and also for cleaning the mess. In week 7 of Term 1 we had our first class Mass. Much preparation went into the Mass. Each boy had a special role to play. Many thanks to Ms Bott who taught the boys a liturgical dance to help make our Mass extra special. We also started our peer support programme which was a great success. Boys in Year 4 looked forward to meeting their peers in Year 7 each week. Mr Maxfield and Mr Chitty did a great job organising the activities.

Term 1

When I went to my new school, Trinity College, I felt very nervous. I went into Four Green and met the teacher Miss Freedman. After a while of being at Trinity I settled in very well. A week later we started swimming lessons preparing for the swimming carnival. The day of the swimming carnival, Chanel won – that’s my house! Our theme this term was “Splash” and we started learning about explorers like Captain Cook, Marco Polo, Christopher Columbus and others. A couple of weeks after the swimming carnival we had our basketball carnival against Aquinas College. It was very hot on the day. It was held on the three outdoor basketball courts and the gym. Two weeks later we had our cricket carnival. It was held at Waterford Playing Fields against Guilford Grammar. Louie Butler Term 2

In Term Two we also did lots of exciting things. Our theme was “Big and Beastie”. We read lots of books such as the “Hobbit”. There was also a special mass for our school’s founder, Edmund Rice, which was at the Entertainment Centre. During Term Two we went to the Zoo with Four Blue and lots of parent helpers. We started a project on our favourite animal from the zoo. I did a wolf for my project. My mark was eight and a half out of ten which was pretty good for me.

From the mouths of the boys

My first year at Trinity College has been great and I have made some very good friends. I am so lucky that my parents sent me to Trinity College and I am sure that my future years here will be just as good as the first. Alex D’Angelo

I enjoyed the Bicentennial Mass at the Entertainment Centre. The year four boys dressed as Irish street urchins and Mr Hackett dressed up like Edmund Rice. It was a lot of fun.

James Ballard Term 3

Jesse Moutia

Term 3 was twice as big as terms 1 and 2 ! Our theme was “Countries & Cultures”. We had to do a project on any country we liked, I did West Germany. Our interschool sports carnivals this term were soccer against Wesley and footy against Aquinas. We then made our First Holy Communion in Week 5. It was a very special and great day! After the Mass, we went up to Gibney Hall for afternoon tea. Our class organised a Mass based on the theme of Aboriginal Reconciliation. Four Green then had an assembly which Miss Bott helped us with. In the second last week of term three Trinity hosted the Interschool Athletics Carnival. It was a hard day! I thought Trinity did well in the carnival. The term finished off with a big walk to Burswood Park.

I loved all the carnivals we had this year. I enjoyed participating in the Swimming and Athletics Carnivals and the Cross Country. My Mum and Dad were very proud of my efforts. Tom Metcalf

All through the year I had fun winning races and losing. I still had a lot of fun and I reckon everyone else did too. James Cumming

It was hard going to a new school by myself. There were fewer grades, bigger play areas, a better library, lots more computers and I was in a lot more athletics teams. Matt Bartlett

Gerard Colreavy

August 23rd was one of the most important days in my life, as I received the Body of Christ. All the special people in my life were there to witness this happy occasion.

Term 4

Term 4 was great. Our theme was Inventions & Space. We all got to pick our sports options. I chose Ten Pin Bowling & Rollerblading. The Year Sevens have been creating fun fund raising things for us to do. The money then goes to the Missions. They did the handball competition and I got into the grand final, but I lost to Tom Metcalf. They also did a chocolate raffle. I bought 11 tickets and I might buy some more! My first year at Trinity was the best school year I have had in my life. I am looking forward to my next year with either Mrs Kelly or Mrs Coleman.

Year 5 Year 5 Blue

Year 5 Green

5 Blue is a classroom which contains: brainy, strong, humorous and skilful people With an energetic teacher at the helm.

Before I started going to Trinity, I was nervous; but now I know lots of people and I am enjoying it here. We went to camp during first term and it was so fun!

Dylan Hindle

Richard Birchall

5 blue is fun, We learn a lot, We run to school, To get there on time, To not get into Trouble.

On our first day of Year 5, we were all nervous, but Mrs Kelly helped us settle in really well. I met old friends and new friends. Throughout the term, we did many fun things which included our swimming carnival, summer sports, PE lessons, writing stories, and art lessons. Perhaps the best thing about term one was going on camp. All in all, it was a wonderful term!

Daniel Nokes

I am in 5 Blue, this much is true I don’t know about you But for me it’s perfectly true I like 5 Blue, how about you?

Bill Scheggia

Second term was really fun. We went to Forrest Chase to watch the group “Junkadellic” perform during World Environment Week. For sport, I played on the Year 5 football team with Mr Chitty. We didn’t lose a game all season!

Riccardo Bucchino

5 blue is heaps of fun We hear the bell but we don’t run We look forward to recess for lots of fun As we are a class, and we are one.

Jack McIver

During second term we had to write a book report, and then tell our classmates about the book we read. Mrs Kelly then made up a booklist of “Year 5 Green Recommended Reading” so we could read the books our classmates recommended. We also had to write our own books and we all entered the “Make-A-Book” competition for Children’s Book Week. We had three state wide winners from our class!

Todd Meyn

In first term both Year 5 classes went on camp to Waroona. I loved abseiling and canoeing but the food was Yuk!!!! The best part of camp was tipping the teachers out of their boats. Marc Bucolo

Jake Dalli

5 blue, it’s hard working and flat out It’s hard but that’s what it’s all about, Going on camp not coming home Learning about capital cities like Rome.

In term three we went to the Alexander Library to see Sam, Luke and Matthew’s winning books on display during Children’s Book Week. We still had our winter sport codes on, and then we had cross-country followed by athletics.

Thomas Prior

5 blue has the best teacher in the school Be good and you will get you name on the good side. Luck is what we have in our class. U can trust us with anything Everyone is good.

James Prindiville

During third term I wrote a project about Burke and Wills. I dressed up as Robert Burke and presented an oral report to the class about his travels. I know heaps and heaps of interesting facts about Burke and Wills. In the Choir, we performed in the Performing Arts Festival. We received an “excellent”. I was a bit nervous, but afterwards I felt really good.

Sean Callander

Being in 5 Blue is quite exciting, challenging and rewarding!!!! Sam Harris

I like being in 5 Blue because we have the best teacher and the best class.

Aden Fawcett

Kaiden Boksich

5 blue is really cool Best class in the world Learning stuff we never knew Us learning is really fun Education is really cool.

In fourth term, I am doing art extension with Mr Lamborn, and for my sport options I am doing tenpin bowling and rollerblading. We are going to the zoo on 8 November, and we are also having mini fetes to raise money for the missions. My year in Year 5 Green has been great and I am looking forward to Year 6 next year.

Year 6 Year 6 Blue Class Report

6 Green 2002

We started the year by jumping into the freezing (and sinking) swimming pool, to get ready for the swimming carnival in week two. We all had a great day at the swimming carnival especially the house that won. Term one ended with our first ever parent/student/teacher interviews, which were quite scary. You never know what those teachers are going to say! At Easter, the “Green” classes re-enacted the days leading up the death of Jesus at daily Paraliturgies. In the second week of term two we went to the Edmund Rice Bicentennial Mass at the Entertainment Centre. Mr Hackett was dressed up as Edmund Rice and the Year 4’s were dressed as Irish street urchins. It was very strange to see our Headmaster in old-fashioned clothes. Mrs Heary, our “in school” costume designer, made all the costumes and everyone looked “the part”. During the term we did an interesting activity with Ms Tesoriero, in which she hid lollipops around the classroom and asked us to find them. When the hunt was finished not everyone had found a lollipop. Ms Tesoriero asked those that had missed out how they felt. Then Ms Tesoriero told us that the purpose of the activity was to see what it felt like to be poor. I missed out and felt terrible! From this activity we learnt the importance or sharing what we have with others. In week seven a representative from Transperth came to school to give us an entertaining seminar on public transport. We watched a video about a boy named Jeffery who broke most of the train station and bus rules in two days. Two weeks later people were still going around saying, “Uh Oh Jeffery!” which was stuck in their heads from watching the video. Term three started with the Performing Arts Festival. The “Boys In Groove” dance group won their category and the whole school felt extremely proud of their spectacular achievement. In week two of term three, “Barking Gecko” performed a hilarious play about a theatre troupe that consisted of a pompous lion, a bossy fox and a scared mouse. The best lessons of the term occurred on Tuesday afternoon when we did cooking with Ms Boe. We made pizza and fruit salad, both tasted scrumptious! At the end of the term we had the sports carnival. It was a fabulous day for most and a “so-so” one for others, for example Mrs Wyatt, who had to do all the scoring. This year Trinity College hosted the Inter School Athletic Carnival in week ten. This of course meant even more work for Mrs Wyatt! This term, term four, is going to be extremely busy. For Speech Night we are doing Latin/American Dancing with a soccer theme. Where do these teachers get their ideas? So make sure you have your tickets! Another busy part of the term will be the prefect nominations, so remember everybody vote 1, Tom Drage. Overall it has been a great year. There is never a dull moment in 6B.

At the beginning of this year I was very nervous about starting Year 6, but I was looking forward to it. Term one was definitely the least busy of the year. At first we got to know each other better and found out what everyone had done over the holidays. We had a swimming carnival and it was really fun. During term one, the boys in the choral groups practised very hard for the Bicentennial Mass which was held at the Entertainment Centre in Term 2. It went really well and everyone liked it. We also went to the Perth City Library to listen to Elaine Forrestall speak about writing and where her ideas came from. One of the stories she told us was about her childhood and the fact that her dad had made her a tricycle. She told us that everyone has a story to tell. Term three was the most industrious term of the year, from book launches to sports carnivals and everything in between. As the holidays ended and we went back to school our first stop was to ‘Callan’ to learn more about the life of Edmund Rice. As cross country had finished, and we were playing our soccer tournament, training for the athletics carnival began and before we knew it, the day had arrived and was over. Everyone had fun. On the last day, the big walk took place. We spent hours having a great time and it was a superb way to finish the term. Term four was also busy, in-between rehearsals for speech night and organising a mini-fete, we also went to the Electoral Education Centre to learn about preferential voting. Looking back, the year was interesting and exciting, and I wonder why I was so nervous. We worked really hard and also had some fun in class. It seems like the first day of school was only yesterday. When I think of the future, I think of Year 7. I think of what teacher I might have and I wonder if I will be a prefect or head-boy, or a house captain. Whatever happens, I am looking forward to Year 7! Hugo Seymour, Michael Tobin and Michael O’ Neill

My nerves were pretty extreme when I entered the class room of 7 Green on the first day of term 1. I didn’t know what to think and wondered what our old sport teacher, Mr Chitty, would be like as a normal classroom teacher. My question was answered straight away, when we dug into some language work. Our theme for language that term was Ancient Egypt.

Some of the activities we participated included, reading a book about a girl in Egypt and completing worksheets about

The year started real smooth. Term by term passed then came term 3. This would have to be our most favourite term throughout the whole year. During term 3 we had our class assembly item. The term’s theme was based on the Commonwealth Games and sport. Our assembly item had a range of sports (Football, Soccer, Hockey & Rugby), umpires and referees all choreographed to Fat Boy Slim’s Song “Weapon of Choice”. We referred to it as 7 Green versus Fat Boy Slim, “Sports Motion of Choice”. Later on during the term, we paired up and researched a Commonwealth Country. Once we found our information we made a Powerpoint presentation out of it. This next subject would have had to have been the best subject. We made a youth talent scout programme. This was really fun, because you would choose people to test out their skills in that particular sport. This was one of the best terms in the whole year.

T

he House Swimming Carnival was a resounding success. The boys displayed great sportsmanship in and out of the pool and the entire Carnival ran very smoothly. Matt Hamer did a great job organising such an enjoyable event.

Interschool Swimming Carnival

The Interschool Swimming hosted by Trinity and held at the Aquinas pool was also very successful. The boys who represented the College made us all very proud. Once again Mr Matt Hamer did an excellent job as the entire carnival ran like clockwork.

The 200m (100m for the Year 4’s) followed after the team events. It was a tougher challenge, but everyone enjoyed it. After the 200m it ended up being a head-to-head battle between Queens, Chanel and Campion. The final score was Xavier, fourth with 809 points, Campion, third with 844 points, Queens second with 860 points, and Chanel winning by 64 points, to make them 924 points. The day ended up being a great success and lots of fun. Can’t wait till next year!

n the Thursday the 19th of September, Trinity College had their Interhouse Athletics Carnival. We had a sunny spectacular day. The day began with the tabloid events which included: high jump, long jump, triple jump and shotput, with discus for the Year 7’s only. These events are usually the most enjoyable for everyone. After these events we all participated in the 50m(for Year Fours only) and the 100m sprint for the Years 5,6, and 7. Xavier dominated in these events and were placed on top of the scoreboard, but not for long. Chanel grabbed a few points from the hurdles events and took the lead. Chanel was now in first place, Xavier second, Queens third and Campion fourth. When lunch came we all received a sausage in a bun and

All the schools that participated performed very well, but Trinity was exceptional. All the schools showed great sportsmanship even though no one was declared the winner. It was a superb day and well organised by Mr Hamer and his troops.

n the 26th of September on Thursday, the Interschool Athletics Carnival was hosted right here at Trinity College. The day started off with the field events which included triple jump, long jump, shot-put and discuss. These events carried into lunch. After lunch we started the track events with the 50m, 100m, 200m, 60m hurdles, 400m, and 800m and then we finished with the circular relay.

Senior School


Year 8

T

he Year 8 boys embarked on the second phase of their education with the somewhat daunting prospect of five years of high school. With the boys settled in to the new challenges of the new year we got the spiritual development up and running with a retreat, where the boys were given the an insight into the liturgy and it's importance here at school. The next few weeks meant adjusting to a new environment full of academic, sporting and social demands. Then for a change of pace all boys were involved in the annual Year 8 Orientation camp at Camp Kelly in Dwellingup. Each homeroom was on camp for three nights and four days doing activities such as hiking, rafting, orienteering, boat building, camping and generally trying to live out of a bag without the help of mum and dad. The emphasis of the camp is to allow boys to see their peers and teachers in a different setting and to help foster friendships that will last a lifetime. While not all boys thrived on the outdoor experience the camp is always a memorable experience for boys to look back upon in their later years at Trinity and indeed throughout their life. After the camp each homeroom selected two leaders to represent the year group on the Student Council. These boys were responsible for numerous tasks in assisting homeroom teachers with day to day activities around the College,

running “Red Nose Day,” and having general input into how the school system could be developed for Year 8 students. These boys were to be the role models for the rest of the year group and they have excelled in providing positive leadership. We had three social events through the course of the year, a games night at Iona, a social at Penrhos and a quiz night at Mercedes. The latter saw 180 boys participate and enjoy a sociable night mingling with girls of the same age and participating in a quiz and some fun interactive games. The Year 8 body was again particularly supportive of the Missions Fun Run day and the Year 8's raised over $4000.00 alone. A social walk around the river, or hard slog for some, turned out to be very enjoyable with some accommodating weather. I would like to thank the pastoral care group for 2001 who were the initial guiding lights for all boys and ensured their transition from Primary School was smooth and rewarding. The homeroom teachers consisted of Mrs McGibbon, Mrs Prior, Mr Shackleton, Ms McLernon, Mr Dwyer and Miss McAleer. Mr Adam Scott Head of Year 8

a positive experience for all involved. The staff at Gilkinson's dance studio spoke very highly of the boy's attitude and participation throughout. I must extend my thanks at this point to the seven staff members who have supported the year nines this year. Mr Rod Rainer, Mr Greg Hill, Mrs Nicole Love, Ms Sandra Vallini, Mr Graeme Porter, Mr Jeremy Baker and Mr Ed Clarke have lent their support throughout the year in a wide range of areas from pastoral administration through to supervising socials during their evenings. The positive and professional way in which they have done so should not go without recognition. My hope for this year's nines as they move into the senior part of their high school education is that they continue to develop and maintain the strength to think for themselves, to act only after consideration of the impact of their actions on others, to see through much of the superficial bravado that can govern the life of young men, and to stand against this sort of behavior within their society. In doing this, they shall truly be able to become, in the words of Edmund Rice, Men for others. I wish them all well.

ear Nine often proves to be one of the more difficult years of any student's time at high school. It is a year of challenges - physical, intellectual and personal ones, a year when social development leaps ahead for many students and a year when a number of boys will need to start considering both their path in life, and the effect that their behaviour might have upon that path. Such life decisions are not things to be taken lightly, and the degree of maturity with which the year nine class of 2002 have approached the various challenges placed before them has, on the whole, been admirable. A number of students, too many to list, have achieved excellent results in a range of pursuits, from the academic, to selection in state sporting teams. Year nine support for both the curricular and extracurricular aspects of college life has likewise been exemplary. Many students who may not have achieved spectacular results are nonetheless worthy of mention for the way in which they have striven at all times to give their all. During the course of the year, notable activities would include the social program conducted with Mercedes College, which included the annual bush dance in term one, and the formal dance lessons and social during term two. I was pleased with the way all the boys approached these social opportunities in a spirit of participation, which led to

Year 10

Year 10 students to understand that they are no longer passengers but are active participants in the determination of their futures. From day one of the year, the students were set the challenge to aspire to their best so that their choices for Year 11 would be attained. Students were also given the opportunity to attend the annual Jobseekers Workshop hosted by Chris Maxwell at Gloucester Park. Mr Maxwell, with the support of East Perth Rotary, taught the year group many invaluable lessons on searching for work, attending interviews and self promotion. With his lively style of presentation Chris was able to teach all the students something valuable and this is why the Workshop was one of the highlights of the year. The social calendar for 2002 centred on the annual Trinity – Mercedes sports afternoon which was attended by over 40 students from the year group. Trinity students also attended socials at Penhros College and Presbyterian Ladies College during the year. Both these evenings were highly successful and I received several compliments from the staff of these schools about the gentlemanly behaviour of the boys. I was also pleased to see they way in which the students adapted to the demands of PSA weekend sport. Several of our Year 10 teams were successful in winning their respective competitions, but all teams successful in demonstrating the TC spirit and sportsmanship on a weekly basis. I would also like to congratulate all those Year 10 students who got the opportunity to play in the senior team for their respective sport – Well Done! Finally, I would like to acknowledge the efforts of Mr Bobby Emmanuel, Mr Tony Webb, Mr Michael Mueller, Ms Sharatha Mizen, Mr John-Marc Rousset and Mrs Lea Wilson who as homeroom teachers, have played an invaluable role in the pastoral development of the Year 10 group. I would also like to thank Mr Robert Armitage for his efforts as acting Head of Year whilst I was on long service leave in Term 4.

F

or most students, Year 10 marks an interesting and some times challenging part of their academic and social development. It has been said that Year 10 is neither here nor there – the students are no longer the young boys of Years 8 and 9 for whom everything is provided. But nor are they the young men of Years 11 and 12 who are forced to accept a greater responsibility in their journey through both school and society. Thus Year 10 is a time of transition. A time of boys growing into young men, and it is this transition for which the Year 10 program Trinity College caters. Whether in the areas of faith enhancement, academic and vocational progress, sporting achievement or social development, the school and specifically those who teacher Year 10 aim to help their students on the path towards becoming young men of integrity in all that they do. Perhaps the greatest responsibility that the College undertakes is in the faith development of the Year 10 group. This year has seen an important change in the teaching of Religious Education to Year 10 students with the adoption of a single course based on the theme of Social Justice. As boys come closer to the age of 15, they are no longer happy to just accept what their Religious Education teachers tell them about God and the world. Questions are asked, challenges are set and the new Year 10 course did an excellent job of placing the responsibility of issues of social justice right into the hands of the Year group. To go in hand with the new Religious Education course, a new form or retreat was introduced that gave students from each home room class the opportunity to ‘breakaway’ from the pressures of school for a day and focus on the journey that they are undertaking through life. These days were highly successful and along with the regular year group masses that were held formed an invaluable part of each student’s faith development. Academically, students were challenged to progress to new levels of achievement in preparation for their moves into post-compulsory education next year. It is important for

P

ost compulsory education begins a time in a student’s life when they make important decisions about their future vocation. As senior members of the college community many responsibilities are also placed upon them. This year over 170 boys entered Year Eleven at Trinity College to face these demanding challenges. The year began with thirty six members of the year group attending Camp Kelly with the Year Eights. These students were part of the college peer support programme. The aim of the programme was to introduce the Year Eight boys to the rich traditions of college life. This programme has proved to be very popular over the last five years and the camp was enjoyed by all. Christian Service was also a highlight of term one. In its eleventh year the community service programme aims to put the student’s faith into action. Many excellent comments were received from the service providers about the boy’s commitment to their tasks. Thanks to the organisation put in by Mrs Marya Stewart, this programme continues to grow and be successful. Year Elevens continued to be involved in a number of street appeals in 2002. All organisations comment on the great work our students do in this area and appreciate the funds raised for their particular organisation. A new innovation in term two was that each homeroom spent a day off campus in an Encounter Retreat programme. Here the students were asked to reflect on their Christian

Service and consider the importance of their spiritual life. This initiative again demonstrates that the core of our college is our faith in the traditions of Edmund Rice. Many thanks to Br Rob Callen and Mr Gerard Theseira for the time and organisation they put into making this a success. Academically, the year group was highlighted by a large number of merit and academic achievement certificates with many students performing well in National Science and Maths Competitions. Term three was also highlighted by the many outstanding individual achievements on the sporting fields and in music. Generally many year eleven students displayed great endeavour and talent in these areas. In term four, elections of the new prefect body were conducted and it was great to see these boys together with many other year elevens getting involved in the Unfair Day activities. This year over $4500 was raised, which is the highest amount the day has achieved. A fantastic effort: one which will go a long way to help the missions in India. To conclude, my thanks to the homeroom teachers for the time and effort they have given to the students. Generally Year Elevens answered the challenge of their first year in post compulsory education. I wish all the boys an enjoyable, successful and rewarding year in 2003 at Trinity.

Year 12 Needless to say, despite their involvement with these pursuits, the Year 12 students were insistent that their social needs were also met. The highlight was the Ball which was held at the College in the July holidays. The theme, The Great Gatsby, saw Gibney Hall transformed through the hard work and ingenuity of the Year 12 parents. It was a magical night and on behalf of the Year 12’s, I would like to express my thanks and appreciation to all the parents involved and in particular to the parents of the Prefects who carried the brunt of the organisation and work. An important aspect of Education at Trinity is the development of the faith life of our students. To this end, all Year 12 students were involved in a day retreat and they were also given the opportunity of taking part in the Kairos Retreats. On their final day at the College, the Year 12s, their parents and staff gathered together in Gibney Hall to celebrate Mass which was said by Father Michael McMahon, the College Chaplain. This was followed by the Graduation Dinner. It was excellent to see so many students who had exchanged their school tie for the Old Boy’s tie, acknowledging that though their student days were at an end, their association with Trinity would continue. I would like to acknowledge the efforts of the Year 12 homeroom teachers, Mr Tim Blake, Mr Mark Duffy, Mrs Pauline Burke, Mr Dean Gillies, Mrs Amanda Hird, Mr Ian Hailes and subject teachers who have played a significant role in the care and education of the Year 12 students. Their constant guidance and encouragement has been invaluable. To the Class of 2002, remember the friendships you have made and take with you the values that Trinity espouse. I have every confidence that your enthusiasm and commitment will see you achieve your goals. God Speed.

Y

ear 12 , the final year of Secondary education, is possibly the most exciting and challenging year for our students. As leaders of the student body, the College expects them to reflect in their behaviour and attitudes the values which Trinity espouses. This is not an easy task but it is one which the majority of our students live up to. This became evident in March of this year when we learnt of Heng Cheong's death. This was a devastating blow to the Year 12 co-hort. He was their friend, their colleague, a young man of exceptional musical talent and quite profound faith. The time following Heng's death saw the Year 12 students bind together and support each other in their bewilderment and grief. They became determined that Heng be remembered and pledged that everything that they could achieve would be done in his honour. The Year 12 students have achieved many things. Their enthusiasm has been contagious and has percolated through to the younger members of the school community. The 12’s proved their leadership on the sporting field. Trinity had its most successful PSA winter season. Year 12 leadership was also evident in the cultural and faith life of the College. They led in Debating Teams, in the Pipe Band and the many Orchestral and Choral Groups. They worked enthusiastically to advance the cause of Amnesty International and the Eddie Rice Outreach Programme and a number of Year 12’s have offered their time to work with the Eddie Rice Camps which are held in the summer holidays. At the beginning of the year, 25 students were inducted as Special Eucharistic Ministers and have served in this capacity throughout the year at Masses for other year groups. Year 12 students also gave their support and their talent to the Music Ministry group and played at the Masses. Many of the Year 12, and particularly the Prefects, worked closely with the younger students. They attended Homeroom and Year Assemblies with them and also helped organise and run their social activities with other Colleges.

Mrs E Lane Head of Year 12

Vale Heng Cheong a superb instrumentalist on piano, violin and guitar. He was a member of the Trinity music group which travelled to Sydney last year. We extend to Heng’s family our heartfelt sympathy and assure them of our prayers. We also extend our condolences to the Year 12 students – and to especially Heng’s closest friends – who have been deeply affected by his sudden death. The response of these students has been a wonderful outpouring of respect and affection for Heng, and a moving expression of their deep faith. May he rest in peace.

T

he Trinity College Community was shocked and deeply saddened to learn of the sudden death of one of the College’s Year 12 students, Heng Cheong on Saturday 16 March, 2002. The day previously Heng was one of a number of Trinity students who were assisting in a Catholic Education Office Information Technology in-service for teachers and gave no indication of not being well. Heng was a well loved student and was highly respected by students and staff alike. He was a brilliant musician, being

Academic Departments


Senior School

T

he year 2002 has been a year of consolidation after a number of new curriculum initiatives last year. Design and Technology, Systems Technology and Applied Technology courses moved into the Year 12 phase and were well received by students. A new design and technology course was introduced in Year 10 with students sitting the IGCSE exam which is an internationally recognised exam under the auspices of Cambridge University. The compulsory Integrated Information Technology course in Yr 8 continues to flourish and will be extended into Year 9 next year. It is widely regarded as one of the best courses of its type in schools. New courses in Outdoor Education and Political and Legal Studies will move into Year 12 next year and have proven to be very popular additions to the curriculum. Trinity continues to constantly review courses to meet a wide variety of student needs, abilities and interests. Vocational education continues to expand through the provisions of structured work placement with the Onsite programme. We are grateful for the work that the coordinator of the programme Mr Paul Baker does for our students. A number of students received opportunities for traineeships as well as employment through the programme. Mercedes College also continues to provide our students with the opportunity to experiences first class training in Hospitality leading to employment and apprenticeships as well as TAFE accreditation.

Mr Michael O’Neill Head of Senior School


Religious Education

T

he year 2002 has been an exciting year on many fronts in terms of Religious Education. This year marked a new beginning in the curriculum of Years 9 and 10 at Trinity College. This is part of the Evangelisation Plan in Religious Education, to enable students to make a personal conversion to Jesus and Christian values through their proclamation of the Gospel. In our society ‘Tradition’ is often regarded as the same as ‘traditionalism’. Far from suggesting an ability to adapt to a changing world, tradition is equated with the opposition to anything new, especially with opposition to progressive social issues or reordering social structures. The fundamental meaning of tradition refers to ‘what is being passed on from others’. Clearly, tradition comes from the past, and at times cannot provide immediate answers to questions that arise in the present. This does not mean, however, the wisdom of the past does not have a role in the present, nor does it mean that tradition must ignore the present. Tradition highlights the fact that we are social beings. We do not start each generation anew but are always dependent on what is being passed on to us. In addition, we respond to what we value, by seeking to pass onto future generations these values with a conviction that they will enrich others. Tradition can be seen as a positive because it demonstrates the social dimension of human beings and the historical nature of human existence implies that not everything we value begins with ourselves. These two facts address the connection between tradition and

Church, for without Christian tradition there can be no Christian theology, no Church. The Church is that group of people who, in response to the Holy Spirit, recognize Jesus Christ as God’s definitive word of self-revelation. The Church exists to be the symbol for the world of the life that God offers in Jesus Christ to all people and all of Creation. Church may be seen as something not only which is living, but also as something which is life giving. The Trinity College Pilgrimage to India must be seen as part of our commitment to Christian Service. This experience was humbling, because it confronted the poverty of others and liberating because in the Church we share in the body of Christ. Amnesty International and the Eddie Rice Outreach are other examples where students of Trinity College are challenged to live out their Christian tradition to ‘love their neighbour’, the living message of Jesus. The Religious Education programme at Trinity College has implemented numerous experiences for students to identify with the living tradition of the Church. Significant liturgical experiences, Eucharist, Retreats, Workshops for Leadership and paraliturgies, compliment classroom learning. Students are given insight into their own self worth, deepening appreciation of others and their understanding of Catholicism and their faith in God. Mr Gerard Theseirra Dean of Religious Education

Art

T

he year 2002 has painted a picture of excellence in the area of art at Trinity College. The Year 12 TEE Art students in particular have shown the way for the future development of artists at the college. Among the creative talent at Trinity College Year 12 TEE Art student Paul Kaminski won third prize for his painting Self Portrait No 1 at the Angelico Student Art Exhibition which was held at the Forrest Centre in Perth. This annual statewide exhibition showcases outstanding artworks produced by students in Catholic schools. Other students with artwork in this exhibition include Year 12 TEE Art student Jarred Wall and Year 11 Art student John Pruiti. Trinity College was also represented in the Year 12 Perspectives Exhibition held at the Art Gallery of Western Australia. James Piper’s untitled work was selected for inclusion in this highly prestigious exhibition which displays excellent artworks produced statewide. A number of Year 12 students also had work included in a highly prestigious printmaking exhibition that is run nationally – The Silk Cut Award for Linocut Prints. Congratulations to Ben Witherick who won a Highly Commended prize for his print Concrete Jungle. Luke Webster and Paul Kaminski also had work included in this exhibition. The 2002 Signum Fidei Year 12 Art Award was once again held on Speech Night. This award is generously sponsored by Trinity old boy Patrick Coward. The award is intended to promote excellence in the artwork of Trinity College Art students and to encourage the winners to continue their art studies at the tertiary level. This year we were privileged to have Mr Ron Gomboc (Sculptor) and Shaun Tan (illustrator) as our guest artists. The winner of this year’s prize was Paul Kaminski for his oil painting Perth No 1 (see pg 120). The Year 12 highly commended prize were won by Robert Lauchlan for his acrylic painting Media Views. The

Year 11 highly commended prize was won by Year 11 art student Ade Haryono Hong for his mixed media painting The City Blues (above left) This year the Art Department is proud to announce the addition of two new art prizes – . The Adelphe King Prize for Drawing and the People’s Choice Art Prize. Mrs Adelphe King (a previous art teacher at the College) has generously offered to provide a drawing prize for Year 10 students with the aim to encourage the development of drawing skills among lower school students and to encourage students to further their art education. This year one of Adelphe’s previous art students, and Trinity old boy Julian Cotterley, was nominated to judge the winner of this award. The winner of the 2002 Adelphe King Prize for Drawing was awarded to Year 10 art student Liam Kennedy. The introduction of our new People’s Choice Award has proven to be successful in involving students and their families, staff and community members in our art exhibition and in promoting the visual arts. Congratulations to Jarrad Wall (Year 12 TEE Art) for winning the People’s Choice Award. His painting Modern Dreamtime was voted as the most favoured art work exhibited at our recent Trinity College Art Exhibition held at the Perth Concert Hall on Speech Night. The Art Department at Trinity College is continuously adjusting and refining it’s programs to cater for a range of student interests and individual learning styles. Initial projects focus on developing the drawing skills of students before tackling more complex styles of working and problem solving. Congratulations to all our prize winners this year and to all art students for their efforts. Next year we look forward to continued enthusiasm and progressive improvement in the technical skills of our art students. Ms Rita Basilio Senior Art Teacher

Design and Technology

A

ntithermoallotriomorphic alteration as we all know is the process which stops concrete from setting too quickly; it is also a vital element in the planning of technology education. In 2002 the development of the Treacy Technology Centre has come near to completion. Our design suite and the new computer controlled laser cutting machine, for example, are unique in Australian schools and have attracted large numbers of visitors from around the State and from overseas. Design and Technology is now taught at each level in the school, and exciting open-ended projects have been developed by students. Boys in Year 10, have for the first time in Western Australia, been entered for the International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE,) in this subject.

• Firstly the technology fits neatly into the timeframe of a normal lesson. • Secondly, the student manufacturing on our machine could just as easily be sitting in a classroom in Broome or Cairns to do it. This facility to network and share specialist resources will become a key issue in secondary schools of the future. • Thirdly, complex and repetitive shapes that normally defeat or frustrate young fingers can be produced with ease, and astonishing accuracy. • Fourthly, the use of this Technology demands relatively little new expertise on the part of the teacher. • Most importantly of all, however, it suggests that the whole way we think about Design and Technology education in schools will be de-constructed. As has been suggested in the UK, school workshops in the future may be more accurately termed Thinking and Assembly

Today's state-of-the-art technology centre could, however, set into tomorrow's practical dinosaur. For this reason the centre is designed on principles that allow continuous upgrades and adaptation, so as to meet the needs of the

Studios. Creative thinking by the boys is without a doubt what has carried this subject forward most significantly at Trinity. Successful projects undertaken in the centre this year have ranged from the design and construction of a back massager to an electronic rat trap! These projects which started out as vague ideas or dreams and have become three-dimensional reality are the true mark of progress - a continuing journey, and a giant step forward from the outdated and rigid craft skills of the past. This is Technology, a winding and ever changing journey into the future. This is what we seek to teach young people at the Treacy Technology Centre. Change also embraces people. In 2003, Mr. and Mrs Marsden return to England. The ongoing development of the Technology Centre will be led by Mr. Ray Archibald, one of the most respected educators in this field in Western Australia. In every way, Design Technology cannot be set in concrete - it must continually change. At Trinity, Technology is antithermollotriomorphic!

future. In the Treacy Technology Centre not only are students faced with realistic technological problems to solve, the equipment we now use to realise product designs points to the realities of manufacturing in the future. Workshop areas are built around a design suite in which pupils work, largely using Corel Draw and similar software products to produce design solutions. It is the manufacturing process that has become very relevant and interesting. Whilst many schools are beginning to use small computer aided machining centres for teaching the principles of CAD/CAM (Computer Aided Manufacture,) Trinity College is the first and only school in Australia to install a computer controlled Laser Cutting and Engraving machine at the heart of its operation. For the first time in history, it is now possible for even the youngest students to design artefacts on the computer and as easily as pressing the "Print" command on their machine, see the item created in wood, plastic, fabric, leather or a host of other materials using

English The opportunities for the continuing development of the boys' literacy skills is being developed and enhanced through the inclusion of Information Technology and a Creative Writing option in Year Eight, and in Years Nine and Ten we offer the students Media and Speech and Drama options. Next year we will be extending our Year Nine students with more Information Technology skills. This year we have had a number of excursions to various drama productions around Perth. We also had the entire Year Nine group visit “The West Australian” for a better understanding of the fundamentals of producing a newspaper. A number of guest speakers have also visited the school to shed light on writing, social issues and lifestyle in general. It is said that boys have problems with their literacy, but for some years now our students have, in most cases, achieved above the norm in the state for boys results in their TEE results. Much of this, I believe, is related to the selection of texts that we study in our English course and the focus on literacy in the school in general. I would like to thank the professionalism and efforts of the teachers in the English faculty. A positive atmosphere in the classroom makes for a better learning environment.

T

his year we saw the introduction of reporting in student outcome statements in Year Eight and next year this will be extended to Year Nine. In the English Learning area, our reports focus on the five language modes which are; Reading , Writing, Listening, Speaking and Viewing. For those not familiar with the Framework Curriculum, there are actually eight levels of achievement to reach from Year One to Year Twelve (when using the EDWA model). Hypothetically, when a student reaches the end of their secondary education, it might be expected that they will have reached Level eight in most outcome areas. This varies, of course, from student to student, depending on their individual strengths and weaknesses in each of the five modes of language skills. Within these modes there are also four areas which relate to understanding and skills which apply to language in general. They are; Understanding Language, Attitudes, Values and Beliefs, Conventions and Processes and Strategies. In Years Ten, Eleven and Twelve we will be continuing to report with a more traditional model, giving parents their son's mark and grade. The reason for this is that this is the model Curriculum Council requires in the upper school and it makes sense for the students to get familiarised with it prior to entering the senior classes. Our programmes and teaching practice is outcomes based for all our classes.

Mr John Geekie Head of English

Debating

T

he Debating competition may not have the same exposure as other extra curricula activities conducted at the school but debating does require the same kind of commitment and enthusiasm from the team members as the high profile sports teams do. The students in the teams meet several times before a debate to formulate their case and then on the Wednesday night they verbally spa with students from both government and private schools. The competition we get most involved with is the Western Australian Debating League (WADL). This league consists of some 1,300 students from 40 state and private schools competing in roughly 770 debates over Term One and Term Two. The debating topics can cover political issues like: "We should continue the war against terrorism" or humorous issues such as "The Simpsons are an okay family". The skills required for debating include researching, writing

106

a logical argument, speaking clearly and being able to respond spontaneously to the opposition's case. It is at times exciting and at other times quite daunting for those who participate. I would like to thank the efforts of Ms Mizen , Mr Armitage, Mr Hawke, Mr Nugent, Mrs McLernon, Mrs Horton and Mrs Staunton for coaching the teams this year and attending on Wednesday nights to support them. I would also like to thank the Year 12 boys who, in many cases, have been involved in the debating since Year 8: Nathan Howe , Chris Bandy , Julian Misso , Emmanuel Solana, Nicholas Gorton, John Rengel, Garret Bray and Nathan Tucker. To all the boys who participated this year "well done". I hope you continue with debating next year. Mr J Geekie Debating Co-ordinator


Health and Physical Education students, as more are wishing to take advantage of the excellent coaching resources and College's outstanding sporting and exercise facilities. As a result, it is more than likely that additional classes will be timetabled for next year. Outdoor education has experienced significant growth during recent years under the direction of Mr Adam Scott and this was officially recognised with his appointment as Head of Outdoor Education in this newly created leadership position. Next year will see the addition of another Year 11 Outdoor Education Class and the implementation of Year 12 Outdoor Education. Traditionally Years 11 and 12 Physical Education Studies have always been very popular courses with senior students. Demand for these courses indicates that two classes in each year will operate next year. A number of students from these courses have made significant service contributions this year to the College's sporting programme. No more so than the 43 Level 1 Australian Football Umpiring candidates that officiated at the J.S.H.A.A. Winter Lightning Carnival. I would like to thank all students who participated at this event as either field, boundary and/or goal umpires for their outstanding performance and their contribution to the success of the event. The success of the programmes is due to the dynamism and cohesion of all members of the department. I would like to thank them for their efforts and support.

T

he Physical Education department welcomed two new staff members in 2002, Mr Luke Dwyer a past student of the college, and Mr Rod Rainer former Schools Cricket Development Officer with the WACA. Both made significant contributions throughout the year and added greatly to what continues to be a dynamic and innovative team of teachers. Again the focus of the development within the department this academic year, as has been the case in other departments of the College, was on the implementation of the Curriculum Framework and the subsequent shift to an outcome education approach to the curriculum. I am pleased to report that the framework was successfully implemented in Year 8 Physical and Health Education program. This process will continue next year with the implementation of the framework in the Year 9 programs. I would like to thank all members of the department for their willingness and cooperation with this process. The 'specialist' Physical Education units implemented in 2001 were developed further this year and proved again to be popular and beneficial to students. During these programs students were given the opportunity to select an area of interest (generally their Summer or Winter sport) and received specialist tuition over approximately a 4-5 week period. For example, Year 8 students were involved in a 4week specialist Summer sport program that provided tuition in either swimming, cricket, tennis or rowing. This program was extended into the Year 9 curriculum within a 6-week Summer sport elective. The well established Fitness and Health elective programs continued to attract an increasing number of

Indonesian

T

he Indonesian Department has continued to consolidate this year. The Year Twelves have worked extremely hard and achieved very good results for their efforts - for which they should be proud! The lower school students have continued to enjoy such activities as restaurant role plays, games, videos and presenting humorous weather forecasts in Indonesian. The Year Tens cooked up an Indonesian storm in the Mary Rice Centre. Special mention must be made of Christopher McErvale who managed to sabotage the two minute noodles! The other students, however, managed to produce delicious satay, nasi goreng, spring rolls and even prawn crackers! On a more personal note, I am both sad and excited to announce my departure from Trinity College and from the

teaching profession to pursue studies in other areas. It has been both my privilege and my pleasure to set up and establish the Indonesian programme over the past seven years. I hope that under the reigns of my replacement, Ms Sandra Vallini, it will continue to experience popularity and success. Indeed, her enthusiasm precedes her, and there are already plans under way to create a combined Year 11 TEE and TAFE accredited course for next year. Thank you to all parents, staff and students, both past and present, for making my stay at the College an extremely enjoyable and enriching one. Sampai bertemu lagi, Ibu Love (Ms Nicole Love)

Information Technology

T

he word 'change' is synonymous with the Information and Communication Technology Industry. Trinity College has undertaken major ICT change in 2002.

teachers can now take notebook computers into this area and connect to the network and the Internet without the need for wires and cables. Our Internet and Intranet capabilities have been further developed with the addition of an online store, a new Intranet site, and classroom web sites developed by our primary school students. My thanks are extended to Mr. Richard Cackett and Mr. Ray Kosovich for their very professional efforts in this field.

The Catholic Education Network

The College has been involved - as a pilot school - in setting up the new Catholic Education Network (CathEdNet). CathEdNet will connect all Western Australian Catholic schools, Catholic Education Offices and the University of Notre Dame on a high speed wide-area-network. The network will be used for collaboration and co-operation in such areas as administration, curriculum delivery, professional development, and library services. Trinity College has provided personnel and expertise to assist the Catholic Education Commission in developing a technical and procedural model for connection to the CathEdNet. Following this, Trinity became the first school to connect to the CathEdNet in April this year. The future of the CathEdNet is very exciting and it should prove to be a wonderful resource for curriculum, e-learning, data management and communications.

Curriculum

We have added two new courses of study to our curriculum offerings this year: The Internet Year 9 (Theory and Practice) and The Internet Year 10 (Web Site Design). This reflects the growing importance of the Internet to education and how students can communicate using the World Wide Web. These new courses complement our existing courses in Multimedia, Industry Information Technology and Digital Media. The amount of digital work that students are producing is increasing each year and we need a way of creating, storing and presenting this work. To facilitate this all Year 8 students are given 'web-space' on the Trinity network to use as digital portfolios. The students can then upload school work to their digital portfolio to be viewed by all students and staff. This year, the year eights have produced web sites about Australian culture (Society and Environment), rainforest animals (Science) and electronic spreadsheets (mathematics). A special thanks to Mr. Richard Cackett, Mr. Ray Kosovich, Mr. Bobby Emmanuel and Mr. Roger Blatchford for the outstanding educational environments they create in their classrooms.

Technical Advancements

The College has continued to implement new technologies and improve existing technologies. A major project for the technical staff was to upgrade our network operating system to Windows 2000. This was a complex task that was carried out with great organization and precision by Mr. Roger Blatchford and Mr. Warwick Gaff Trinity has been identified as a leader in educational ICT and as such has been involved in piloting a number of new technologies including computer 'thin clients', videoconferencing technology, and electronic smart cards. Another improvement to our existing systems was to extend our wireless network to allow access to the computer facilities by students in the senior science block. Students and

has been a year of hard work (as always) – full of challenges for staff (and students) as we endeavoured to assess and report in levels for the first time. It was also a year of pleasing successes – having attained a record number of prizes and commendations in student competitions. The change in lower school textbooks to the “Nelson Series” meant extra work for staff, to become familiar with and make the best use of, this new resource that came with a supporting CD of additional worksheets for students to use in consolidation and extension as required.

evening for Year 8 parents, held earlier in the year, was very well attended and helped in the communication process between home and school to ensure that students made good use of this new resource. It highlighted for me the extremely high level of interest, support and importance placed on, Mathematics education by our parent community. I wish to commend all the mathematics staff for the many meetings, extra work and generally positive way that they have

Australian Mathematics Competition In the Australian mathematics Competition we had pleasing results as well with 3 prizes going to Xuan Ji (Year 8), Louis Westbrook (Year 10) and Brian Corr (Year 11). An additional: • 8 students scored High Distinctions • 80 scored Distinctions, and • 165 scored Credit certificates. This meant that 24% of our students scored in the top 15% of competition entrants and 68% scored in the top 50%, which is encouraging.

accepted the challenge, to assess and report on student learning in outcomes by level. We have made a good start and are looking forward to extending the process into Year 9 next year. In chronological order, these activities have been: The MAWA have Sum Fun Competition • Junior team representatives – Paul Coates and Drew Flanagan (Year 10), Benjamin Creighton, Long Pham, David Parkinson, Benjamin Golightly, Ben Bowman and Thomas Cox (Year 9), Brent McIntyre, Justin Soon, Michael Waddell and Ricardo Zanello (Year 8). • Senior Team representatives – Garret Bray, Alex Mavrick, Luke McGinnity, Alex Hiley, Nam Nuygen, David Richardson, (Year 12) and David Allen, Brian Corr, Alexander Meegan, Christian Skinner, Michael Sims and Konrad Wenzel (Year 11).

Music

2002

The vocal ensemble has never been as large as its 16 member line up for this year. Its repertoire was essentially Gospel and Spiritual in nature. The work shop with Tony Backhouse from Sydney and the two stunning performances; one at the Scotch College Jazz night as a support act for Don Burrows, and the other in St Joseph’s church Subiaco were the year highlights. For most of the smaller ensembles 2002 was a less hectic year than last but still produced quality performances from the guitar ensemble, the middle school string ensemble, the percussion groups (who earned many honourable mentions in the CSPAF), and the newly formed rock band built an extensive repertoire of songs. Academically there were two new prizes introduced to the music area. The Year 12 TEE music prize was renamed the Heng Cheong Memorial Prize. Heng was without doubt one of the most talented musicians at the college. Heng was an artist at the piano, a fine violinist and a copious arranger and composer of music. His sudden death in term 1 was a shock to the whole Trinity community but hit the music department very hard. He left some very big shoes to fill in both the orchestra and senior string ensemble. The Friends of Music, who have become an extremely active parent group over the last 18 months, have also contributed a prize for the most outstanding contribution to music at the college. The inaugural recipient was Julian Misso. The highlight of the year for the music department was the Trinity Showcase Concert. This concert featured current and past music staff and Old Boy musicians in a night that ranged from classical to jazz and old boys form 1948 to 2001. This night was a time not only to enjoy the music but also to appreciate the large number and quality of musicians who have passed through Trinity over several decades. The FOM are to be congratulated on this initiative and all who participated thanked heartily.

began with some new faces in the department. Mr Michael McGolderick took up the reigns while I was on long service leave and Ms Ruth Bott was very capably taking on middle school and primary music activities while Mrs Tonya Lamborn was on maternity leave. I am very happy to say that Ms Bott will be continuing in the department in 2003 and also that Mrs Lamborn will be returning. 2002 was a year when the younger bands, Swing band II and the Middle School Band, came a long way. Many keen young players worked hard and produced very credible results. For the Senior Concert Band three conductors graced the podium. Mr Fred Rooke resigned after several years of fine music making but his very capable successors in Mr Mark Thomas and Mr Burhan Guner have kept the standard to where Mr Rooke had brought it in the band’s recent history. Along with the orchestra and the senior string ensemble, the combining of instrumental groups with Mercedes College has reaped great musical benefits and much comradery between the students of both schools. The orchestra’s performance of the Carmen Suite showed the strings at their best and the versatility and strength of the senior string ensemble was again obvious this year. For Alex Majewski who has been one of the finest violinists at the college in recent years this was the end of an era. A new look Chorale with many young members improved significantly over the first half of the year to return to the quality of the 2001 touring group and provided some very memorable performances of works by Pergolesi, Australian composer Stephen Leek, Z Randall Stroope, Stephen Hatfield and others. The liaison with Presbyterian Ladies’ college continues as strong as ever and the combined choirs of Trinity and Mercedes once again took off the Benedictine Community award for Christian music at the Catholic schools performing arts festival.

Outdoor Education

It was a fantastic experience for both students and staff and will be included in future programs. Along with the introduction of Outdoor Education in Year 12 in 2003 there will be some exciting opportunities for future groups. Elsewhere in Outdoor Education the Year 10's successfully completed an "Adventure" camp in Margaret River participating in abseiling, rock climbing, high ropes and snorkelling. Year 9's completed canoeing level 0 and went to Wellington Dam near Collie for there culminating camp. The Year 8's had an introduction to camping at Dwellingup. They walked and rode several trails through the forest. Thanks to the staff who shared their expertise and participated in the camps, especially Mr Messer and Mr Dwyer.

2002

saw the introduction of Upper School Outdoor Education in Year 11. The course was welcomed by several students who have an interest in the environment and man's impact and use of the outdoors. Students were involved in both practical and theoretical studies such as roping, (including abseiling and safety systems,) meteorology, navigation, orienteering, first aid, minimal impact camping and sailing. The culmination of the course was a 6 day sailing expedition around the Dampier Archipelago testing a wide range of skills, most notably self-preservation when the temperature reached 44 degrees. The expedition was a huge success with all boys completing approximately 180 kilometres during the sail. There were numerous highlights on the trip including watching turtles laying eggs on the beach at night, a close encounter with a humpback whale and her calf, snorkelling over coral reefs and exploring uninhabited islands to find 20 000 year old aboriginal rock paintings. Boys camped on the beach and had to prepare their own meals.

Science

G

I

n many ways, this has been a year of consolidation. Change continues to be the backdrop driving activities and requiring a large amount of our time. Still, a high quality product can only be achieved through review and refinements. I wish to acknowledge the effort and time given to students by Dr Roy Skinner throughout his six years at Trinity from 1996 to 2001, and wish him well as HOD Sc at PLC. A warm welcome to Mr Ed Clark from Seton College, who has been teaching middle school science and senior physics classes this year, and also to Mr Jeremy Dixon our observatory manager. The implementation of curriculum framework in Year 8 has dominated staff energy and time. This more studentcentred approach to learning should assist our boys to engage their science work more broadly than hitherto, by placing emphasis on values and process skills rather than knowledge per se. The work of students needs to be nested in more realistic and relevant contexts, with recognition that the boys have preferred modes of learning styles. However, I believe we need to be conscious of the desirability for academic rigour and not take too extreme an approach in our implementation. Obviously this undertaking is a long-term effort and ultimately requires a whole-school, integrated approach in its complete expression. So planning has been a major feature of discussions at departmental meetings. The benefits of the new science labs are obvious to staff and especially students. Classes have been operating in cool air-conditioned labs blessed with an openness that arise from large rooms. There exists a more comfortable and inviting class tone that has improved student learning. Nevertheless, we seek to steadily improve the quantity and quality of

science-based resources as the curriculum evolves. The ratio of science laptops to students continues to fall as is the case with digital microscopes, data loggers and basic science hardware. The quality and relevance of video programmes has improved with FOXTEL science documentaries and I hope to announce a new-to-WA video/computer system which offers interesting opportunities in relation to enhancing online student courses of science study at Trinity. In addition to the few but varied science excursions, such as visits to the Energy Museum, UWA Geology Museum, Star Swamp, Astro nights and the South West Biology Expedition, the department, through the effort of Mr Tim Blake, has gone further a field with the inaugural Sabah Trip. This unique educational experience breaks new ground and promises much for future Trinity science students. During 2003 we expect the observatory will operate online (i.e. over the internet) and hence be accessible to students and members of the Trinity community as well as school children from across the world. The online astronomy and space sciences options continue to be very popular amongst the Years 9 and 10 boys. Our boys have been accepted into many of the major science education programmes offered within WA such as the Seimens Science Experience, WA Science Summer School, UWA Engineering Camp and National Chemistry Quiz. I wish all participants well and trust they will be stimulated by their experiences. I wish to thank all my staff for their efforts this year. They are a most harmonious and cheerful group. Seasons greetings to you all. Mr Ray Priskich Head of Science

Astronomy

Trinity College Observatory

T

This facility is destined to engage and stimulate many students at Trinity for several decades and hopefully steer some towards a science related career. In addition, we hope to offer outreach opportunities to the community such as open nights and public lectures. In early 2003, the annual WA ASTROFEST will be held at the college. I wish to thank the Trinity community for its support in this unique undertaking. For more details about the observatory visit the college website (http://www.trinity.wa.edu.au) and select ‘observatory’.

rinity College observatory houses the first remotely operated robotic telescope at an Australian school. This research-grade science education facility has been the centrepiece of a unique offering for our science students, for it enables Years 9 and 10 Astronomy & Space Sciences option students the capability of collecting original astronomical data for science investigations. The student-centred, self-paced and online course enables students to contemplate and explore the Earth and beyond via studies encompassing the solar system, rocketry, stars, cosmology, astrobiology, manned space missions (Apollo, Shuttle, International Space Station), and satellite remote sensing of Earth (meteorology, crop/agricultural production). With the assistance of the observatory manager, Jeremy Dixon, this observatory will be accessible via the internet to students and other interested groups at local, national and international levels.

Sabah Excursion

T

Rehabilitation Centre where orphaned Orangutans are reintroduced into the surrounding forest. The work done here is wonderful but, sadly, the land clearing around the sanctuary seems to undermine all the effort. Next stop was Sukau, on the bank of the Kinabatangan River – the highlight of the trip. The only access to the resort is by boat and the lodges are surrounded by lush riverine and Diptocarp rainforest. During the dawn and dusk boat rides, five species of primate were seen, including the aptly named Proboscis Monkey. Snakes, crocodiles, huge insects, hornbills and the immense variety of plants were a glorious and a continuous visual feast. We were extremely fortunate to get within a few meters of the rare and endangered Asiatic elephant – an experience not to be forgotten. Leaving Sukau we journeyed to Sandikan, visiting the war memorial, and had a poignant reminder of the sacrifices that so many allied soldiers made in the last war. Our trip concluded by exploring mangrove swamps around Kota Kinabalu and seeing the Bajau people who live in stilt houses and make their living entirely from the sea. Only shopping was left to fill in the remaining time !

rinity rises to greater heights – 4095.2m to be precise! An intrepid band of Year 11 Biology and Geography students and two staff hiked through the early morning darkness to fly the Trinity flag at the top of Mount Kinabalu. As part of a co-curricular venture between the Science and SOSE departments the students undertook a study of tropical rainforests first-hand by traveling to Sabah in N.E Borneo. The trip started in Kota Kinabalu, the capital of Sabah, acclimatising to the humid tropics. The next day the group visited Poring Hot Springs where, after a scalding bath, the Canopy Walk tested the nerves on a swaying, narrow walkway 40m up amongst the tree tops. Flying geckos, exotic birds and Diptocarp forest initiated the students into the lushness and diversity of tropical rainforests. Over the next two days the assault on Mount Kinabalu ensued. It was very tough struggling up the 11 kms of steep trails to the summit, battling fatigue and altitude sickness but the magnificent sunrise, spectacular views and sense of achievement more than made up for the aching muscles. An amazing variety of orchids, epiphytic ferns and the peculiar pitcher plant were to be seen all along the trail. The trip continued to Sepilok to view the Orangutan

pride of place on the wall above the computers. The stained glass is illuminated by a specially installed spotlight, and provides a focus and reminder that our boys are growing to be “Men for Others”. This physical transformation mirrors the continuing evolution of service the resource centre provides for both staff and students. In a time of increasing change we need to prepare our students with skills that enable them to learn new things as fresh challenges arise. The addition of talking books and Cd Roms has added a new dimension to our expanding and developing collection. The resource centre is heavily used during school time and in the time before school, lunchtime and after school. During class times the boys come with their classes to research and read. The computers, connected to the Internet continue to be in great demand. Using this technology allows the boys to develop their research and analytical skills. In the unstructured times the students enjoy playing chess, draughts, reading, and catching up with homework.

he P.L. Duffy Resource Centre at Senior School Trinity has had a facelift this year. We are situated in a magic location overlooking the Swan River and can now really enjoy that outlook. The transformation began with new light coloured paint to cover the dark brown brick walls. This immediately lightened the library. The shelving under the windows to house some of our fiction collection was constructed by our wonderful carpenter Lawrie Dodd. This enabled us to reorganise all the shelving. We replaced the high dark blue shelving with low light coloured modern shelving. The low shelves were placed with wide aisles to enable easy access to all materials. We arranged these to canter either side of the central reference and reading section. Now the entrance to the library has a bright and open vista across the river. The new arrangement of shelves has also allowed us to have a much expanded area for displays. One of the most popular this year was our display of rowing cups, including the splendid Hamer cup.

One new programme this year was the inauguration of the Mercedes/Trinity Book Club. We met a couple of times a term, alternating between the two school libraries. There were new books, old books, talking, discussions, quizzes, reviews, as well as afternoon tea. I would like to thank Natalie Crawford from Dymocks and Mrs June Daniel from Mercedes who helped make it such a success. The library website was allocated its own address this year, http://library.trinity.wa.edu.au/. It continues to grow at a rapid pace, and is used not only by our own staff and students but by many people both in Australia and overseas. In one day in November we had over 5600 unique visitors to the website. My genuine gratitude extends

Society and Environment

T

he Society and Environment department has again involved themselves in a variety of tasks and activities, including the on-going implementation of Curriculum Framework with an outcomes approach in Years 8 and 9. Year 8 students study of Aboriginal history and culture included an excursion to Yanchep’s Aboriginal Education Centre to learn about bush-tucker, tool-making and constructing mia-mias. An aboriginal guest artist from Clontarf demonstrated artwork and provided the students with an opportunity to create their own artwork on wooden boomerangs. Year 9 students visited Red Hill’s waste disposal and landfill site as part of their studies on urban development and problems with a growing urban environment. They also completed an intense study of Ellenbrook as part of the course. In first semester students saw the film ‘Rabbit Proof Fence’ to compliment their Aboriginal studies. The Central Law Courts was another important excursion providing students with the opportunity to learn more about our legal system. Year 10 students were given an opportunity to study the four TEE subjects available for study in Year 11, Economics, Geography, History and Politics. This not only provided a base of essential knowledge and skills, it also made the decision-making process a little easier for students. Political and Legal Studies was introduced to the Year 11 curriculum and was well supported by students with two very good classes. The visit to parliament house during question time and the associated debate was an eye-opener for some students. It will continue into Year 12 TEE next year and should provide students with a relevant and interesting course of study.

Year 12 Geography students ventured south for the inaugural overnight study camp. They visited Harvey as part of the country town study and then went a little further south to White Rocks Dairy. They stayed overnight at Camp Kelly and toured Alcoa the next morning and Mandurah in the afternoon. The camp provided an excellent opportunity to gain first hand knowledge of key aspects of the course. Year 11 Geography students had field trips to Trigg and Sorrento Beach for coastal studies and Herdsman Lake for a study of a wetland ecosystem. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the S&E staff for their professional and enthusiastic approach toward the delivery of relevant and exciting courses in Society and Environment.

Special Education

A

been that of senior boys learning to help and receive help by becoming tutors and advocates within their own school community as part of the Trinity Christian Service program. Belonging, as a contributing member of the community, is an important goal for all boys’ individual programs. New ventures this year include reaching out into the wider education community (specifically to schools such as Newman College, John XXIII, Corpus Christi and Mercedes) for sporting and social opportunities. So far, indoor soccer, bike riding on the foreshore, ten pin bowling and athletic events with other students have provided the opportunity for educational and social outcomes in a wider range of environments than the school setting. This has strengthened the learning of the boys as they develop their skills and their sense of self. This is very much “learning how to learn”. All the teachers at Trinity – not just those working in the Mary Rice Centre - are included in the education of boys with disabilities and special education needs. This infusion of professional expertise ensures that individual programs delivered within a social context can achieve the best outcome for each student.

t Trinity we aim to infuse the mainstream of daily school life with direct curriculum and personnel support. Working throughout the school across all curriculum areas and most grade levels, this support is not therefore a place but rather an approach to education. The Mary Rice Special Education Support Centre now provides three education assistants and a full time coordinator to address these support needs as well as providing a flexible physical learning area. In 2003 we will increase the program to provide support for students in Post Compulsory years. In order to do this effectively, the College will employ a full-time secondary teacher to commence in Term 1 next year. Part of our aim has always been to balance individual educational needs with social goals. This requires that all areas of school life are infused with opportunities for boys with disabilities so that all boys learn about teamwork, leadership and compassion in a variety of settings. Our school Mission statement for example includes the goal that boys become “agents for good in society.” Developing active programs for boys to learn how to do this includes the Mary Rice Centre support program being both a recipient and provider of support. A good example has

students enrolled in the Structured Workplace Learning component of VET at the start of the year. The Year 11 contingent performed extremely well, persevering with the requirements of gaining the 27 generic workplace skills and spending up to 240 hours in the workplace. These students should be congratulated for this fine work, and for completing their normal school requirements in just four school days each week. Already some students have received offers of part time work during the holidays with the potential for more permanent work when they leave school. All received grades towards their Secondary graduation. The Year 12 group was a large one. These also performed successfully, although some experienced disappointment when it became clear that some of the expected partnerships with Registered Training Organisations did not materialize. Trinity is discovering how difficult it is to find placements in certain industries, particularly in Information Technology. Several students, however, gained placements with Hospitality Group Training and one with Toyota. All others completed their Stage 2 skills and their Industry Specific requirements. The year 2002 saw an increased enrolment by students in the training opportunities provided in the Trinity curriculum. Next year will see further developments which will bring Trinity into line with the planning by the Government and the Curriculum Council for more VET

opportunities for students. This will require partnerships with industry and Registered Training Organisations. The Government’s plan for the restructuring of the Post Compulsory schooling programme will include some VET offerings in all the Courses of study chosen by students in the future. In some cases, even next year, students will be able to qualify for dual certification: i.e., they will receive recognition by the Curriculum Council and by the Department of Training for certain elements of their school programme. This will assist students in their applications for further training at T.A.F.E or with other Training providers. It will also help students plan their futures with even more certainty than they can now. Thanks are expressed here to our wonderful ONSITE office staff, who coordinate Trinity’s programme together with the other six schools in our Instep cluster. Under the leadership of Mr Paul Baker, the programme becomes more efficient and professional each year, giving students and parents a real pride in the standards achieved. Congratulations, too, to the students who participated in the Mercedes College Hospitality programme. With another year of effort these will graduate with a Certificate 11 in Hospitality. Mr Kevin Johns, Coordinator

Over the past few years substantial changes have occurred at Trinity College. To make the school more accessible to those with disabilities and injuries, a lift and walkway network have been built to give access to all Secondary School buildings. It is hoped that the administration building will be added at a future date.

Changing face of Trinity College

To expand curriculum offerings, some existing courses were modified and the Treacy Technology Centre built. This has allowed the school to offer new courses that use some of the most advanced technology available.

Substantial areas around the school have been brick paved as part of a Landscaping Plan. New outdoor furniture has been built for the use of Primary School students in their new paved area. An additional covered area is now available adjacent to the Treacy Centre and the new fence and entrances have greatly enhanced the appearance of the school.

O

ur tough, though relatively short season, began on the 19th of August with over one hundred athletes turning out. Accordingly to Head Coach, Mr Marshall, this was one of the largest first day turnouts. There was some speculation that we would be a main contender at the PSA Inters. Our first Saturday event was against Iona Presentation College and this was probably one of the team’s favourite meets. The intensity of training picked up in the second week with many of the Year 8’s out to prove their ability and place themselves in contention for a position in the team. The Year 8’s must be commended for their efforts this season. It can be difficult to work so closely with the senior students and the boys did very well, making new friends and earning respect. Our second Saturday event against Wesley showed a very consistent display of by our athletes, reinforcing beliefs of being at the top half of the leader board. The third week of training increased in tempo with the athletes showing the discipline required of the team. With the Age Championships at the end of this week the athletes were keen to show their coaches and peers they had the talent to be the best for their age group. There were many inspirational performances on the day. The fourth week of the athletics season can be flat and lacking in enthusiasm. However, this season, the team trained with a renewed sense of enthusiasm and dedication. The team showed great spirit and performed creditably

against Aquinas and Hale with many athletes achieving personal best times and distances. The day was the proof we needed for the team members to believe we were genuine contenders for the Inters. Inters Day, 21st September, was very successful for the College. With a very creditable third behind Hale School and Scotch College the day was one of celebration of College community spirit when athletes were joined by their parents and coaches for breakfast, the team prayer in the Chapel and the team dinner in the evening. The team is very appreciative of the coaches for preparing our team and the parents for assisting with the officiating for the lead up events, preparation of morning teas, breakfasts, dinners, sausage sizzles and all the tasks required to get our team to compete. I am confident that having achieved third place in the last two years the Trinity Athletics team has the foundation to progress higher in PSA rankings. Tyler Hall

Emmanuel Solana and Luke Webster were stalwarts of the team. Aaron Zucconi provided the strength on the boards and some highly memorable “showtime” moments were contributed by Joe Ross and BJ Manado. The Trinity Third V also had an eventful season. We started in brilliant form and caused three upsets. The depth of the Third V played an important role in the success of the First and Second V teams. Matt Dunstan, Adrian Romato, Robert Falconer and Adam Bird all played successfully in the seconds at various times of the season. Darren Chin, Michael Ward, Matthiew Marks and Cameron Garlett were the strength behind many of the Third’s wins during the year. All members showed tremendous team spirit and enthusiasm. The strength of our senior teams was echoed by the boys playing in the younger ranks. A strong band of Year 10s, including Jarrad Prior who made his debut in the First V, put in some extremely solid performances during the season and will undoubtedly prove to be competitive in the senior ranks next season. Even more promising from a long term perspective is the immense depth of talent in our middle school teams. If our Year 8 and Year 9 teams keep up their commitment to training and continue to develop to their potential, then the challenge will definitely be put out to the other PSA teams in future competitions. Congratulations to all the players who represented Trinity at all levels of the game, from A teams to D teams and social basketball. Your efforts were much appreciated by the coaching staff and supporters. And speaking of those individuals, such a positive season could hardly have taken place without their input. We are certainly grateful for the dedication shown by all our coaches and managers.

T

he Trinity College campaign for the 2002 Blackwood Cup began much earlier than the first game in Term One. A new professionalism permeated the basketball fraternity at the College and this saw an unprecedented dedication to preseason training. This change in attitude was largely brought about through the influence of our new Head Coach, Mr Miles Kelly. Mr Kelly’s sportsmanlike approach to basketball and his supreme knowledge of the game enabled all Trinity College teams to perform at a highly competitive level. An advantage of having Mr Kelly’s input was his willingness to be involved with students at all levels. This enabled a consistency in the Trinity game and the flow-on effect of this will surely be seen in future years as our players advance through the ranks. Trinity teams in the past have definitely had their fair share of talented individual players. However, it was a new commitment to a philosophy of teamwork that enabled our teams to achieve outstanding results. The First V season ended up being the most successful season Trinity has experienced since winning the Blackwood Cup in 1993. The team started off very well, achieving comprehensive victories over Christ Church, Hale, Scotch and Guildford. The victory against Wesley set up a “grand final” against Aquinas, the other undefeated team. The game was a spectacle to behold and attracted a large group of enthusiastic Trinity supporters. Unfortunately, it was not to be our day and, despite a valiant effort, Aquinas claimed the Blackwood Cup by a margin of just 10 points. Congratulations must go out to Nicholas Sas for his leadership throughout the season and to our strong contingent of Year 12 students who leave us with some great courtside memories and some big shoes to fill. The Second V season was just as exciting as that enjoyed by the Firsts. Our players worked exceptionally hard at training throughout the season and were able to finish the season on top of the table despite a loss to Aquinas in the last game.

Presentation of caps to new squad members.

Century makers. 3RD XI CRICKET 2002

T

he 2001-2002 Cricket season marked the beginning of a new chapter in Trinity Cricket with the development of the Trinity College Centre of Cricket Excellence program. This program was formulated in consultation with parents, coaches and college administrators and will now serve as a key planning document to ensure that Trinity College continues to provide a coaching and cricket development program second to none in Western Australian schools. The addition of Mr Rod Rainer (former Cricket Development Officer and School Cricket Coordinator at WACA), and former Western Australian cricketer Mr Graeme Porter, to the College’s teaching/coaching staff significantly enhanced the quality of coaching offered at Trinity College

Under the wise leadership of Nathan Messer, the Thirds had what could be called a ‘quality’ season. Standards of dress, training and commitment were all of a very high order. The team won as many as they lost, but all were hotly contested. Some outstanding players were Ed Smyth (near 100 runs and more than 10 wickets); Michael Pigram (close to 100 runs and almost 10 wickets); Tim Johnston, Lloyd Reidy, Nathan Messer, Daniel Brierty. (Some special performances) 10A CRICKET

1ST XI CRICKET

The 1st XI completed a successful season that was marked by steady improvement throughout the Newson Competition and over the Summer Holiday period. The college was instrumental in establishing the Summer Challenge carnival held in conjunction with Guildford Grammar School, John Forrest Senior High School and Midland-Guildford District Cricket Club. The first two rounds in the Darlot Cup resulted in victories over Christ Church and Wesley. Michael Embley’s performance against Christ Church (105 & 5/27) and David Bradley’s successive half-centuries enabled the side to play some outstanding cricket and grow in confidence. In the following rounds excellent performances included: captain and WA U/17 representative David Bradley (half century), Michael Smith (118 vs GGS), John Glen (5/50 vs Scotch) and wicket keeper Aaron Vincec (half century and 5 dismissals vs Scotch and Wesley). I would like to thank all coaching staff, Mr Porter (2nd XI), Mr Johns (3rd XI), Mr D. Tobin (1st XI Manager), and players, for their support and commitment throughout the season, particularly Michael Smith, Ben Smith and Callum Johnson for their efforts and support as Captain and Vice-captains, respectively. 2ND XI CRICKET

Trinity scored victories over Christ Church, Wesley and Scotch and tied with Guildford. Better batting performances included Chris Mather (31), Marcus Santarini (37), Ryan Smith (45 and 46) and Gerry Hill (27). Better bowling performances included Dustin Halse (4/16 and 4/43), Ben Browness (3/8), Sam Miles (2/48), Simon Duca (3/1) and Joshua Sims (3/18).

The team performed creditably with 3 wins and 3 losses. The match against Guildford was the highlight with a run chase which resulted in a Trinity victory, surpassing the opposition’s total of 3/174. Preston O’Keefe scored a century in this innings, the best batting performance of the season. Chris Wills performed consistently throughout the season to win the Year 10 award 10B CRICKET

The team performed well, winning about half their games. They showed great team spirit and always displayed excellent sportsmanship. 9A CRICKET

The Year 9A cricket team had a very successful season with some outstanding results. Three boys made fifties through the season, Matthew Birrell, Doug Bowen and Jacob Foley. The teams bowling stocks had good depth with some talented performances from Will Hawtin, Matthew Fitzsimons and Dane Lazarus 9B CRICKET

The team remained undefeated until the last game against Hale School. The team spirit and sportsmanship was always excellent. Shamis Bin Sali was the best performed team player. 8A CRICKET

The 8A cricket team has had an outstanding season. All the boys contributed to the team in some way and the stand out performers this season were Perry Colyer, Danny Coyne, Tim Hunt, James McPherson and Bernard Sneeuwjagt. Well done lads on the sportsmanship and spirit with which you played. 8B CRICKET

The team won 3 games and lost 2. All players showed good team spirit and sportsmanship. William Birch won the Service and Contribution award. Mr Martin Tobin Coach 1st XI Cricket

Cross Country

T

he Senior Cross Country Team has had an excellent season, taking out the PSA Championship, and now being the proud holders of the P.M. Moyes Cup. The team's success is attributable to a lot of hard work, sheer determination, and dedication to training by our large team of boys. Mr Jurjevich, Mrs Bourke and I have worked hard to establish an atmosphere in which the boys endeavour to attain personal best times and encourage the efforts of others. David Rossbach was again our best runner, setting an unbeatable place in the majority of races. Other outstanding performances were made by both Joel & Brennan Cummuskey, Cade Zulsdorf, Matthew Oswald, and Christopher Gibson. The speed of our top fifteen runners combined to produce a formidable and unbeatable force, and was backed up on every occasion by the boys just outside the top fifteen. A special thank you to all the junior runners who were promoted to senior level on many occasions, all of whom showed outstanding courage and determination against boys twice their size. This year, the Hasting's 5.8kim Bridges Cup was retained by David Rossbach, who amazes us with his continual

improvement in pace, while the Stephen Spier's Effort Trophy was awarded to Alessio Di Biaggio who has had an impressive season and has met every challenge put to him. Congratulations to these boys, and I look forward to seeing all the boys competing for these trophies next year. It was a real privilege to be involved with such a dedicated and committed group of boys. Thanks must also be given to Martin English (Captain), and Robert Norman (Vice Captain) both of whom provided fantastic role models for other boys. We will miss their leadership along with that given by the other year 12's in the team. Finally, I must thank the parents and boys from other teams who came and supported us throughout the season. It is great to see a large number of parents attending the races and I have been most grateful for the huge amount of support that you have offered. I look forward to continued success in Trinity Cross Country in near future. Mrs Amanda Hird Senior Cross Country Coach

Football ball skills, confidence, determination and team play displayed by the boys. Congratulations to Andrew Watson who was awarded the 'Service and Contribution' medal. Other players who deserve special mention for their consistent, creative contributions all season were, Chris Wills (Fairest and Best) Joel Wagner (most consistent) and Thomas Nelligan (best team player) Thanks to Mr Porter for helping out at the last game.

F

ootball at Trinity College has enjoyed one of its best ever seasons with 6 of the 9 teams winning their respective competitions, as a club this makes us the most successful in the PSA. With the strength coming across all age groups the club is looking forward to a bright future, this will only come with much hard work and dedication toward a common goal. The middle school combined team won the BELT UP CUP competition this year which started with 169 schools entered, a fantastic effort.

9A 1st XVIII

At the start of the 1st XVIII season, the team as a whole set about to bring the Alcock Cup back to Trinity. Our two biggest challenges, Hale and Aquinas. We went into the Aquinas game confident, but left shattered after a disappointing 40 point loss. Our next challenge to stay in the Alcock Cup race was to beat Hale. Unfortunately we went down, in a valiant effort, by the smallest of margins – 1 point. We went through the rest of the season undefeated, gearing up to our final grudge match verus Aquinas. This game showed our true potential, as we played ‘champagne football’ to beat the winners of the Cup by 3 points. Congratulations to Matthew Spencer, Nick Sas and Chris Bandy who lead the team this year. Thanks must go to Mr Matt Hamer who assisted with the coaching and Mr Steve Spencer who was the Manager 2nd XVIII

The Second XVIII enjoyed a very successful 2002 season, winning the first nine (of ten) games and sharing the competition trophy with Aquinas. The players enjoyed one another’s company and showed great pride in representing their school. The team spirit was evident at both training and within games. All players were modest in victory and demonstrated admirable sportsmanship toward their opposition and the umpires. David Bradley won the Fairest and Best Award and Luke McGinnity received the Service and Contribution Award.

The 9A football team struggled during the early part of the 2002 season. The sheer talent in this group of boys meant that when they became accustomed to a more sophisticated style of play they became a dominant force. By the end of the season we were beating the next best PSA teams by five goals or more. Our centreman Doug Bowen played with balance and skill and was rarely beaten in a contest let alone a game. Steven Martin developed into the best ruckman in the competition and Chris Monterosso played with a dominance that would control large parts of a game for us. Jacob Foley played with assurance and confidence at full back and Peter Zambotti developed into a very fast, exciting and determined half forward. This team also entered the Belt Up Cup competition and was the first Trinity team in 15 years to win the grand final. More than 130 teams from schools all over the state were competing and the Trinity team played outstanding team football to dominate the grand final. 9B

The year started well with most of our wins occurring early in the season. The majority of the games of the season were played in a sportsman like manner and all students gave there best during each game. The final win/loss record was 3 wins : 6 losses. Special thanks goes to the following students who were solid contributors all season – Nathan Colli, Matt Fitzgibbon, Garth Jeffery, James Mills, Steven Morphett & Phillip Murray. 8A

3rd XVIII

The Trinity College 8 A’s football squad for 2002 can be very proud of very successful season. The season kicked off with a resounding defeat of a competitive Guildford side, this followed with wins against all other schools until the deciding final fixture against the old arch rivals Aquinas. In a highly skilled contest the Trinity boys were gallant in defeat. This left both sides with 9 wins and 1 loss.

Season 2002 saw Trinity blessed with one of the strongest 3rd XVIII squads in many years and with skilled and enthusiastic commitment throughout the first round they had very convincing victories over all opposition except Aquinas. Everybody made an excellent contribution but certain players like Michael Pigram, Grant O’Hehir, Luke Palmer, Seam Moodie and David Fagan were extremely consistent throughout. Josh Johnson served us well as a Captain who led by example

8B

10A

The 10A Football team were able to complete season 2002 undefeated. Preston O’Keefe lead from the front as a Captain and was consistently in the five best players. Scott Dillon and Marcus Bin Sali were both outstanding during the season in their attack on and ability to win the footy.

The team played solidly and ended the season playing Aquinas for the opportunity to finish in top spot. Players who will go on to be very good footballers for Trinity include – Aaron Grant, James Moody, Joseph Brierty, Tom Gryta, Justin Mabarrack, Merv Narrier, Ryan Taylor and Cameron Winsor. Thank you to Mr Gillies, Mr Armitage, Mr Walsh, Mr Cirillo, Mr Quartermaine, Mr Clarke, Mr Swan, Mr Dwyer and Mr Rainer for their management, coaching efforts and support this year.

2002

team followed closely by a similar result in the last fixture against third placed Aquinas. The 7-0 nil defeat that we inflicted on Guildford gave our goal difference a good boost! A feature of the team was its very strong defence, lead by captain Brendan Dee and the ever reliable Lyle Nelligan and Peter Jones. Our half line was very competitive with Karlos Villanueva giving all for the team in more ways than one. Greg Melton was a tower of strength as was Cameron Jansen before his well deserved promotion to first team level. Justin Flamer was a cut above the opposition in the many positions he played throughout the year and Daniel Oehlers was great in the goals until also being promoted. The boys endeavour was always obvious and contributed to their success. The 3rd XI gave their all at every fixture. After every game the opposition coaches congratulated the boys for their endeavour and the sportsmanship shown by the team. The contribution award was won by Robert Di Giallonardo with consistent defensive performances from Ruairi Kenyon and Christopher Nixon.

saw a new First XI group take to the field after the loss of 8 players from last year. The young group made significant strides in their development throughout the season and some good young players including Andrew Hooper and Damen Cooper performed well in their debut seasons. Highlights for the year included a spirited performance against Scotch which saw the opposition under extreme pressure due to some excellent goalkeeping from Simon Beale and some great defensive skills from Tristan Mitsopoulos and Nick Stappenbeck. Another significant game was played against Wesley with Trinity playing fast attacking hockey which created several goal scoring opportunities. The hard work of forwards Nathan Messer, Gerard Hill and Sam Cuthbert paid off with a classic field goal and the conversion of a penalty stroke. Thanks to all the parents for their support throughout the year. Congratulations to Captain Gerard Hill for his determined attitude which was recognised when he was selected in the P.S.A. combined side. The 2nd XI had quite a successful season this year. We were able to win one game and draw 3 and were narrowly defeated in a number of other fixtures. The highlight of the year was a 1-1 draw with the second placed Christ Church

Rowing

Thanking people properly at Trinity Rowing Club is close to impossible as so many people do so much. Tasks are done with such vigour and spirit that a mere 'thank you' seems insufficient. Thanks go to the rowers and coxswains for stepping up each morning and afternoon to demands that many adults would shy away from in an instant. Your efforts with your own hearts, legs and arms stretched to the limit have claimed some very rare and enduring prizes. Thanks to your leaders Dominic, Nathan, Cade and Mitchell who rose to the many challenges that are the norm during a rowing season. Well done and thanks to you all. Thanks to our wonderfully supportive and hard working coaches, whose generosity, technical expertise and good humour led us through all manner of situations to secure the Hamer Cup. The rowers are truly blessed to have your earthy and honest example, in a world filling up with pretence and illusions. Finally thanks to our parents, their families and friends who create a community spirit at Regattas (and at 'home') that is the envy of the PSA. From simple life-saving coffees at 5:30 am to good humoured planning meetings until 10:00 pm the same night, the Trinity Rowing Auxiliary led magnificently by Mr David Garrick is always there for their sons, the coaches and the club. Thank you and God bless you all. The resulting atmosphere gives the John Messer Boatshed the feel of a 'huge beach house in the city' where an extended family spanning forty years is welcome and contributes to the education of youth.

R

owing at Trinity College continued to rise to new levels of spirit, leadership and performance in season 2002. Right from George Xouris' appointment as Director of Rowing, to our galant 1st VIII's final stroke at the Head of the River, equalling the Trinity course record, the Club was achieving its goals and setting new standards for the future. History will record Trinity College's inaugural C.A. Hamer Cup victory as Champion Rowing School 2002. A fine achievement requiring TEAMWORK throughout the club. The Hamer Cup is for overall points on the day, with Trinity recording first or second for eight of the twelve races. Other firsts included an inaugural victory by a Year 9 eight followed by the 1st Quad setting the fastest ever time in the PSA, in a new shell. The new quad scull is fittingly named after the 1st eight coach Mr Rein Rapp (Class of '91) who has generously coached at Trinity for the past ten years. Rein's contributions during good and difficult times have been a shining example for all the young men who row at Trinity College. Many thanks Rein. Historic coincidences took on an almost spiritual significance this year with the Year 9’s first ever win in the Edmund Rice shell, magnificently marking the two hundredth anniversary of Blessed Edmund's first school in a stable at Waterford, Ireland. Also, the Hamer Cup win occurred on historic March 23 - the date of our first Head of the River victory in 1996 - a worthy point of interest. There were many other quality victories and outstanding team efforts at the Guildford on Swan, Wesley and Hale Regattas, each deserve more space than is available here, but their total contribution to the spirit of the club can never be under-estimated.

centres, Shaun Preston, James Thompson and Aidan Walton danced through gaps large and small, while the wings and fullback, David Ewart, Simon Dowling, Damien Cribben and Adriaan Wessels, embroidered the season with some audacious runs. Four players, Daniel Wiseman, Shaun Preston, Adriaan Wessels and Joshua Sims were selected in the State U18 team and two, Peter Trend and William Brock in the State U16 team. There was much to be proud of in this Trinity performance. The season was redolent of fortitude and determination with the football devastatingly prolific and sweetly flowing on occasions. Once again, Trinity are PSA champions and the year has yielded a priceless sporting tale to convey to later generations.

he First Fifteen proved to be the pedigree team of the 2002 PSA competition. Abrasive at times, resilient to the core, the depth and adaptability of their squad and their considerable desire to win back the championship outclassed and eventually overwhelmed the opposition. Splendidly led by the heroic Daniel Wiseman, whose principal lieutenants were Joshua Sims the Vice Captain, Shaun Preston and Paul Phillis, the team unequivocally demonstrated that commitment and spirit can be as important as individual skill. The front row of Nicholas Pavy, Min Soo Han, William Brock and Sebastian Derham, were the epitome of obduracy, the second row of Peter Trend and Benjamin Keenan-Smith, beacons of excellence and the back-row triumvirate of Michael Lush, Joshua Sims and Nathan Tucker fast, creative and effective.

Soccer FIRST XI SOCCER

This season was one of change for the First XI with eleven new players having their first experience playing at the top level in a PSA competition. There was also a new coach in Peter Butler, a former professional soccer player who had recently migrated from England. This put an additional responsibility onto the shoulders of our experienced players, especially the Captain of the team, James Isaia and Vice-captain Pasqualle Marrapodi. The team started strongly winning the first three games against Guildford, Scotch and Christ Church. In the fourth game the team suffered its first loss,1-2 against Aquinas. In the next game against Hale the team fought back after conceding an early goal to win 2-1. The following week against Wesley, when after dominating 95% of the game without being able to score a late breakaway goal resulted in our second defeat of the season. Three wins in games seven, eight and nine left Trinity College two points behind Aquinas and playing them in the last round. This final game lived up to all expectations with great football skills and sportsmanship shown by both teams. With the game level at 1-1 Trinity dominated the final fifteen minutes, but were unable to score the championship winning goal. So ended a season where the players should take great pride in their efforts and team spirit. Special thanks must go to Peter Butler who in his first season coaching a PSA team worked tirelessly to develop the squad and improve the skill level of the players. I would also like to highlight the efforts of two players, James Isaia and Nathan Howe, who both played thirty consecutive games for the First XI Soccer.

I must mention Steven McFall’s goal-keeping effort in our final game, John Papas’ consistent work in defence, David Von Felten’s tenacity in every game, and Luke Parker’s selfless leadership, as demonstrated by his occasional stints in goal (despite his loathing of the position.) I wish the boys all the very best, and I hope that they continue to remember that a champion team will always defeat a team of champions. 10B SOCCER

The Year 10B Soccer team showed in their first game that, the desire to win and the ability to do so is strong with the team. Having their hopes set high, the 10B’s did not give up and fought hard for every well-earned victory. Due to an extraordinary series of events, the hope of a clean sweep for the season was shattered by a single goal loss to Christchurch. Our thanks to Mr Blake for guiding us to the third season as the best ‘B’ team. 9A SOCCER

The 2002 Year 9A Soccer team consisted of fifteen dedicated and very co-operative players who formed a strong team which clearly outclassed all other teams and which will be very successful in the future. The strength of this side was the brilliant defence, headed by Captain Andrea Terni, who proved to be very hard to penetrate against the best forwards of any other team. The forwards were very aggressive and fast, but too often failure to convert a good effort into a goal, due to inaccurate kicking. 9C SOCCER

SECOND XI SOCCER

The Year 9C Team, coached by Mr Marsden, saw some exciting action, winning all but three of their games by massive margins. Our nemesis was Christchurch who overpowered us on both encounters. Mention should be made of Jemin Jo who, in the second clash with Christchurch, was stretchered from the field with a nasty facial injury. Co-Captain Luke Janeczko was player of the season.

This year we began poorly with a loss against Guildford in our first match, however our team came a healthy second in the competition. Michael Von Felten as team Captain, led by example, being the highest goal scorer for the season. Our defence was led by Peter Miranda, Giavanni Bai and Richard Wilson. Our forward line had some brilliant attackers, led by Jarrad Parks, John Barnett and Robert Bretherton. In the mid field, Jason and Simon Fonceca and Andrew Connell were consistent. A big thank you must also be passed onto the many parents who attended the games and gave the team moral support and encouragement.

8A SOCCER

The 8A soccer team was extremely successful, as overall winners of the competition. The team only lost one game throughout the entire season. The better players for the season included, Nic Tatasciore and Jack Rocchi.

THIRD XI SOCCER

8B SOCCER

Endeavour and enthusiasm were never in short supply this year. The team experienced a mixed season of results, but were competitive and always displayed a high standard of sportsmanship, which was most evident in our last game of the season against Aquinas. Our skill level was sound but can thank our goalkeeper for keeping us ‘in the game’ against much better opponents. Overall we are satisfied with our final standing and look forward to the 2003 season.

We had a great squad of Year 8’s who played their hearts out for Trinity. They were committed to training and to giving of their best in the games. We started out with two victories against Guildford and Scotch, winning 8-0 and 10-0. Great contributions were made by Alex and Brendan De Guara, Stefan Quaresimin, Kwan Chia and Loenard Ong. 8C SOCCER

The Year 8C Soccer team proved to be invincible; they not only won every match but trounced their opponents. This spirited team always played an aggressive and tenacious game with special skilful contribution from Michael Dinh.

10A SOCCER

Assistant Coach, Mr Adam Sibson and I experienced season that was most enjoyable and rewarding. With a 7 win, 2 loss,1 draw record, the boys have every right to feel proud of their efforts, but still with an accompanying twinge of what might have been.

Swimming

T

he 2002 swimming season will best be remembered as the year where all schools had to increase the size of their swimming teams to a minimum of 100 students. This was necessary as each age group is now required to have four relay teams. As a result, the Trinity College Team had approximately 10% of the senior school participating in the Interschool Carnival. Due to the large number of swimmers required, many of our students were recruited for the night from other sporting teams and as a result did not have the benefit of the many swimming sessions that many swimmers from the other schools had. It was a credit to those boys that they were prepared to help the team on the night by making themselves available. While we can be proud of our achievements in the pool, it remains a challenge for the College to field a team in the near future that can be competitive at the interschool events and hopefully get our name engraved on the one trophy that has so far eluded Trinity College. The work done in our primary and lower secondary is beginning to bear fruit, as our younger swimmers showed great promise in their carnivals this year. On the night of the

162

interschool sports many of the boys swam personal bests and managed to beat many seasoned competitors from the other PSA schools. Special mention should be made of the performance of the Team Captain – Travis Nederpelt. Travis put in some outstanding record breaking performances in the open division. He demonstrated tremendous spirit to compete at the carnival then rush off to catch a midnight flight to the Australian Open Swimming Championships. The 2003 swimming season will present a major challenge to the coaches and swimmers. It is anticipated that the current pool will be unavailable as construction of a new aquatic complex may be well underway during the first term of next year. However, I feel sure that the spirit shown by our swimmers in the past will prevail and they will perform as well as can be expected in the circumstances. We will look forward to the following season when we will be able to field a team that will boast the benefit of the best aquatics facility in the PSA. Mr Peter Duckett Head Swimming Coach

Tennis

T

he 2002 Tennis season has been one of rebuilding with most members of the senior teams new this year. There was not a lot of success on court this year, but the spirit and sportsmanship that developed during the year meant that in many ways this year can be seen as one of our best ever. The discipline of the boys at training and their willingness to play at their best each week despite some lopsided score lines was a credit to all. We have gained much experience throughout this season and if the boys are prepared to stick at it success is sure to follow. A good blend of youthful talent and experience will see the club continue to be competitive throughout all years in the coming years. The First VIII despite not having a win for the season were a very competitive unit, with a blend of youth and experience. The team consisted of three Year 12, three Year 11's and two Year 10's. Our captain James Isaia provided good leadership on and off the court, winning many of the battles he encountered. The other consistent winner during the year was Adam Russell who showed he would be a strong contributor in the future. With five of the eight members returning for next year, the light at the end of the tunnel continues to get brighter. The Second VIII tennis team had an excellent and enjoyable season. They had three memorable victories the most of any team at the school. The effort shown by the majority Year 11 outfit will ensure that the experience gained will serve the first team well next year. The results of the Third Tennis Competition do not portray an accurate picture of the season. Although the Thirds only won twice, they were highly competitive and forced their opponents to fight for every point. Training sessions were well attended and the players strived hard to improve their skills level. The camaraderie within the group was excellent and they were extremely supportive of each other. This season was great for Year 10 Tennis and the spirit shown was on many occasions was nothing less than inspirational. The performances throughout the season have ensured that the Firsts and Seconds will have a strong team in seasons to come. Although finishing fifth, and winning two games, the team always put in spirited performances..

This was a successful season for both the 9A’s and 9B’s teams because they learned to be competitive and many "fringe" players forced their way into both sides. It was a season where all boys learned that participation is what sport is all about. I have been impressed with the unbridled enthusiasm of the Year 9's to improve their knowledge of the game, their individual and team skills and to learn correct etiquette for competitive tennis. Both teams won a few games and went close in all of them. There are excellent signs that tennis is on the way back at Trinity and the Year 9's will certainly play their best in the future of that return. Well done boys for a particularly enjoyable season The Year 8 season opened positively with a healthy number of students enlisted for the cause. Still, only a small number of these players had developed their skills through outside coaching and playing. Relatively inexperienced A and B squads had some great success. The boys showed courage, determination and good sportsmanship throughout the season. We now are starting to build a base to launch tennis back to the dizzy heights of the eighties. Thank you to Mrs McGibbon, Mrs Lane, Mr Duffy, Ms Mizen, Mrs McLernon, Mr Rousset, Mr Messer Jr, Ms McAleer and Mrs Prior for they're efforts and support as managers this year. Each of these managers remarked on the co-operation and behaviour of their teams. All players proved worthy ambassadors of Trinity College. This year we again bolstered our coaching stocks by enlisting the help of Mr Ian Walker. Ian worked with the Year 8’s, 9’s and 10's with much success. This gave the boys the opportunity of getting advice from a profession coach which many boys have not had contact with in the past. This contact will continue in the coming years and give many boys an opportunity to hone their skills. Across all teams the boys always had an enjoyable time playing and on all occasions showed excellent sportsmanship. Much thanks needs to go to all parents who came out to support their sons and cheer the teams on. Special thanks to the senior mums for providing the best morning teas in the PSA.

Volleyball

T

Once again we entered the State Schools Cup and brought four teams from Years 9 to 12 to compete against the states best volleyballers. Our Year 11 team finished with a silver medal for their fine efforts. All teams competed well with many games being lost by the barest of margins. In conclusion there are too many great moments to mention individually, however each player will remember a special moment of on court magic that brought them closer to victory during the year. Special mention must go to Mr Gianni Ricciardi who coached with great enthusiasm and skill. Thanks to all players who turned up to training and games. Well done boys, look forward to more volleyball next year.

his year saw the successful inclusion of Years 8 & 9 into the PSA volleyball programme. Trinity has always been well represented at the senior level but with our new junior recruits, volleyball has never been stronger. The junior teams played well over the season, improving constantly and remained strong contenders over the season. Both the Senior A team and B team had an outstanding first round, being undefeated until the last game against Aquinas College who were also undefeated to that point. However fate would not smile on us this day as both teams lost narrowly. Trinity student Jason Den Ridder made the state team this year and travelled to Sydney to compete against the other states in the National Under 17 Volleyball Tournament. Western Australia finished fourth in a massive showdown for the bronze medal.

Waterpolo

W

aterpolo became one of the “official” PSA sports this year. Over a number of years, this popular international sport had been played on a trial basis to determine its suitability as one of the sports of the Association. As all of the PSA schools except Trinity had access to a pool with some waterpolo capacity, the introduction of this sport was always going to be difficult for Trinity. However, the subsidence problems associated with the current 25m pool actually provided a “window of opportunity” for the College, as a decision was made by the Board to build a new 50m pool which would include a facility for training and playing waterpolo. Whilst this decision is great news for the future of waterpolo at Trinity, for the 2002 season the various teams had great difficulties training – having to bus to Beatty Park for two sessions a week. For all waterpolo teams – and in particular the senior waterpolo teams – the time at training and the limited facilities available were both serious detriments to the development of basic skills and team play. It is therefore not surprising that despite training enthusiastically, the Senior Water Polo teams struggled to

achieve a victory this season. Nevertheless certain individuals stood out because of their commitment at all games and their hard work during training. In the Senior A team, special mention must be made of Thomas Lee, Peter Trend and Len Whitfield. In the Senior B team, Liam Curran, Josh Johnson and Garret Bray must also be commended. Coach Mike McPhee from the Perth Torpedoes should be congratulated on his efforts to assist the students in refining their skills and also for guiding them through the various matches. The Middle School teams also laboured under the great restrictions of the limited training times and facilities, and the loss of time travelling to and from Beatty Park. Once again, the enthusiasm of the boys and their obvious potential was evident. Hopefully this potential will bear fruit in future years when more adequate training is possible. Thanks are extended to Charlie Liggins for his valuable support. Ms Nicole Love Water Polo Team Manager
