I

t has been my absolute privilege to be part of our magnificent school throughout 2006. In this report I wish to provide a brief review of aspects of Trinity life whilst alluding to current successes and future challenges.

Since our inception in 1894 a formal Christian Brothers presence at Trinity has been a constant reminder of our heritage and a link to the founder of the Brothers, Blessed Edmund Rice. That formal presence concluded when Br Robert Callen left at the end of 2005 and thus the year 2006 is an important milestone in Trinity’s history. I am pleased to advise that throughout 2006 the College has continued to give authentic expression to the values and charism that have served us for 112 years. Our challenge now is not only to preserve the past but also to ensure Trinity continues to evolve as an Edmund Rice college.

Mr Robert Henderson Principal

What is happening at Trinity is mirrored throughout the country. The four Edmund Rice Provinces (we are part of the Holy Spirit Province – WA/SA) are in the process of forming Edmund Rice Education Australia (EREA). This process of change extends beyond governance issues and is both exciting and daunting.

Trinity is a wonderful school but we are faced with certain challenges. We live in an era of rapid economic and technological development when schools have become more complex than ever before, adopting the language of business with ‘strategic planning’ and ‘mission statement’ becoming part of the education vocabulary. Education is a lot more complicated than it was in the past. A senior Christian Brother put it beautifully when he said ‘schools were pretty simple to run in my day. If you were a big bloke and it looked like you could handle 100 kids they made you head of Year 8. If you were a big bloke with a booming voice and it looked like you could handle 1,000 kids they made you headmaster!’ (perhaps CBC Fremantle appoints principals by this criterion!).

In the past few years education has been constantly in the news and often for all the wrong reasons! In Western Australia the educational landscape continues to change and as teachers we feel at times as if we are political pawns grappling with the conflicting demands imposed by the state and federal governments.

I marvel at the dedicated Trinity teachers as I sit back at meetings and listen to them speak. Their constant overarching concern is to deliver the best possible education as they engage in healthy debate with healthy divergence of opinion about the merits of an outcomes based approach. Then they just roll up their sleeves and get on with it. There is no doubt that at all times the staff wants what is best for our students.

4

Another challenge for Trinity is financial. My background is in teaching economics and one of the first questions we learn in elementary economics is ‘How do I best allocate my scarce resources to satisfy my many needs and wants?’. This question is particularly pertinent to Trinity. Colleagues from other PSA schools often ask how Trinity manages to deliver comparable services on half the fees. The answer is ‘with extreme difficulty!’.

Over the past decade one way that the College has been able to keep fees comparatively low is by increasing student numbers and gaining the benefits of economies of scale, but we are now at saturation point with plenty of enrolment applications but no room at the inn!

It is an economic imperative that our finances are well placed to deal with the obvious infrastructure needs: the possible transition of Year 7 students to Middle School; the refurbishment of Gibney Hall and the Chapel (now under way); improved performing arts facilities (an absolute necessity – I marvel at our brilliant teachers and performers, but we do not have facilities of a comparable standard); development of the playing fields at Waterford; having a suitable maintenance program for buildings over 40 years old. It is a long list! A Middle and Senior School fee of $6,000 is the 2006 reality; in 2007 it will be closer to $7,000. Our fees will never be as high as those of other PSA schools but should be in the range equivalent to 65-75% of them. This is a significant issue for the future.

Principal’s Address Administration

Term 3 we hosted over 500 representatives from Edmund Rice ministries from around the state and I lost count of the number of delegates who commented positively about the courtesy, grooming and maturity of our student helpers.

Our students are not only courteous, groomed and mature but also very talented. Academically Trinity’s results are very good and we constantly strive for excellence. Last year the TEE results placed 82% of our students in the top two-thirds in the state, with 48% of those in the top one-third. These results were complemented by very good statewide testing results in Year 9 and the Junior School. More and more standardised testing is being introduced and we are responding by developing devices to monitor and track the progress of individual students. The message for students is that although our results are impressive there is no magic formula for academic success. As Albert Einstein once said ‘it’s not that I’m so smart, it’s just that I stay with problems longer…’.

The Trinity Passion Turning our attention to more positive matters, when we interview prospective teachers we sometimes ask ‘what are you passionate about?’ and there is much to be passionate about when discussing the young men of Trinity.

Statistics concerning low youth attendance and participation in parish life reminds us of the prime importance of being, first and foremost, a Catholic school. The primary purpose of a Catholic school is evangelisation – to bring the good news of Jesus to the people – and our faith formation programs incorporating Religious Education, Campus Ministry and Christian Service continue to flourish.

When we have fine young men like Justin Russell and Tom Gryta wanting to become Catholics before they complete Year 12 great joy and pride is brought to our College, and we are blessed to have Fr Michael (even if he does support the Western Bulldogs!). I urge our students and families to pray! It was Sr Joan Chittister who said ‘…prayer is not meant to change the world. It is meant to change us so that we can change the world…’. I love the fact that our Kairos initiative has already spread to CBC Fremantle and St Norbert College.

At times we may take for granted the quality of our students. At the start of

In 2006 our music and sporting achievements have been phenomenal. Our music, dance and drama ensembles were awarded the Catholic Schools Zenith Music Award and Trinity won the athletics; both successes were for the third year in succession. The Trinity football 1st XVIII won for the fourth year in succession; Trinity was the only school to have a top three finish in each of the ‘whole school events’ (swimming, rowing and athletics); and we came second in the swimming – our best result ever! These successes roll easily off the tongue but the achievements are exceptional. All the students, staff, coaches and parents involved are hereby acknowledged and applauded.

As Catholics we are sometimes apologetic about our success. We shouldn’t be! These results come about

5

Principal’s Address Administration

through a combination of talent and sheer hard work.

I believe that it is important to acknowledge success and strive for excellence in achieving one’s personal best and this is a recurring theme at Trinity. Persistence is the key. The road to success is dotted with many tempting parking places; the choice is whether to stop and park or continue our journey down that road.

Perhaps we can learn from Michael Jordan, the world’s greatest ever basketballer, who said ‘I’ve missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I’ve lost more than 300 games. Twenty-six times I’ve been trusted to take the game’s winning shot and missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life…and that is why I succeed.’

I love the fact that on the Year 8 Quest Retreat the senior students tell their stories to the Year 8s. By the end of the retreat I was so impressed with the Year 12 students that I tried to recruit several of them as prospective teachers! Our senior students constantly provide an outstanding example to the younger students and their pride in Trinity is infectious. The model of Quest is fantastic; outstanding young teachers led by Mr Osnain training outstanding senior students, who in turn guide the Year 8s.

I love hearing stories about our students going beyond the call of duty. At the Athletics Dinner, Director of Sport, Steve Leahy related a terrific anecdote. A Year 10 student, Joshua Hicks, was expected to break two PSA records in his age group but graciously agreed to run in a higher age group to maximise points for Trinity, winning both middle distance events in that higher age group. On the way home the athletics team stopped off in the city for some food and somehow Josh missed the bus home – so he ran and beat the bus back to Trinity!

My wife Robyn and young daughters, Mia, Zoe and Abbey, must tire of me coming home with stories about our students, but the fact that I feel compelled to tell them says a lot about the magical spirit of Trinity.

At Speech Night this year I had two quick messages for the boys. The first was that at the PSA Inters this year I was a spectator of not only our competing athletes but also of my fellow spectators in the stands. As such I observed that in a disciplined, controlled environment Trinity students rise to the occasion. Their participation in support of our athletes and the sportsmanship they demonstrated was far superior to that of some other PSA schools.

My second message to the boys was that the challenge is to translate this very high standard to less controlled environments. Specifically, the culture of bus misbehaviour must change. We all know that, although some improvement is already evident, there is room for significantly more and this is an area with an opportunity for strong student leadership to be displayed in future years.

As I leave Trinity I wish to make some brief acknowledgements. To the students – thank you for making it a pleasure for me to come to work every day.

Trinity is by far the best school I have worked in and this is largely because of the quality of its young men!

To the staff – thank you for your outstanding dedication and loyalty. We have worked hard but equally we have shared lots of laughs and enjoyed each other’s company. Who could ask for more than that? To the parents – thank you for your positive endorsement and support as exemplified by the leaders of our parent bodies: Leanne O’Dea (Board Chair), Marilyn Harries (President of the College Auxiliary) and Sharon Staude (Chair of the Parent Council). I thank you for your love of Trinity and unqualified support.

I congratulate Mr Banks and wish him well, knowing that he will be an excellent Principal. It has been said ‘if you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans’.

In complete disregard of that warning I plan that one day I will return to Trinity.

“May you live justly, Love tenderly, And walk humbly with your God” (from the Prophet Micah 6:8)

S

ince 1878 in South Australia and 1894 in Western Australia the Br Kevin P Ryan Congregation of Christian Province Leader Brothers has been conducting schools. While the Christian Brothers will continue to be involved in schools and other community based work throughout Australia and many other places in the world, from October 2007 the Congregation itself will no longer conduct or govern schools. The Congregation will continue to conduct other organisations in these two states and elsewhere in Australia, Papua New Guinea, New Zealand, East Timor and The Philippines.

What will this mean for students, families and staff of our schools? Let me explore this a little.

In 1802 a man called Edmund Rice, inspired by the Spirit of God, opened a school in a city called Waterford in Ireland. He wanted to provide education for the Catholic boys of Ireland who were not able to attend other schools in that country. He wished to help those boys ‘to be good Catholics and good citizens’.

In conducting schools in Western Australia and South Australia the Christian Brothers, inspired by the same Spirit of God and the life and work of Edmund Rice, have been attempting to help young women and men to know and love God and to be able to have the skills, knowledge and values to live their lives in the

service of others in this country and elsewhere. This service was to be expressed in their families, their communities and in their work. Some have expressed their lives of service as Priests or as members of Religious Congregations in the Catholic Church.

Over many years, many people who are not Christian Brothers have also been inspired by the Spirit of God and the life and work of Edmund Rice. Some of those have been students in our schools, families associated with the schools, staff members or leaders in our schools and others have been board members.

Working alongside Christian Brothers, they have kept our schools true to the story of Edmund.

The story is now moving on to the next chapter. The Congregation of Christian Brothers and other men and women throughout Australia are, we believe, responding again to the call of the Spirit. An organisation called Edmund Rice Education Australia is being established. This new organisation will take over the conduct or governance of the 39 schools which are now conducted by the Congregation all across the country, from Townsville to Hobart and from Hobart to Tardun! This does not mean that Christian Brothers will not work in schools, or be members of Boards, or work in the administration of Edmund Rice Education Australia, but the Congregation is handing over the responsibility of conducting the schools to Edmund Rice Education Australia.

Province Leader Administration

The Christian Brothers are very confident that the people being appointed to ‘run’ Edmund Rice Education Australia will keep the spirit of Edmund Rice alive in schools and will develop new and exciting ways of doing this as the needs of young people change over the coming years. The Christian Brothers, and many others, believe the life and work of Edmund Rice can continue to be an inspiration for many young men and women throughout Australia, can make a strong contribution to Catholic Education and can help Australia to be a more just, loving and compassionate country.

I write this article as the Year 2006 draws to a close.

This article is distributed to Christian Brothers College Adelaide, Rostrevor College, St Paul’s College and Flexible Accreditation Meaningful Education (FAME) in South Australia. It also goes to Christian Brothers Agricultural School Tardun, Catholic Agricultural College Bindoon, Aquinas College, Christian Brothers College Fremantle and Clontarf Aboriginal College in Western Australia. With that in mind, we offer thanks and congratulations to some of our current Principals who are moving on from their roles at the end of the year.

Br Pat Cronin leaves Christian Brothers College Adelaide after 12 years of extraordinary and innovative leadership. Mr David McFadden moves from Christian Brothers College Fremantle to lead a school in London, Mr Brad Hall leaves Catholic Agricultural College Bindoon to take up the Principalship of St Joseph’s College Albany and Mr Rob Henderson, who has

8

Edmund Rice Combined Ministries Conference held at Trinity College 25 July 2006

been Acting Principal of Trinity College, takes up the Principalship of Christian Brothers College Fremantle.

They have all done great work in very challenging roles. On behalf of all in the Edmund Rice Schools – I say thank you to each of them!

As well as welcoming Rob Henderson to the leadership of Christian Brothers College Fremantle, we welcome Mr Ivan Banks (formerly Principal of Bunbury Catholic College) to the Principalship of Trinity College and Ms Sue Alderman as Acting Principal of Catholic Agricultural College, Bindoon. We wish them well in their significant roles of leadership in 2007 and beyond.

May all of us, like Edmund Rice, continue to be open to the Spirit of God. Like Edmund, may our lives be driven by justice, love and compassion. As we attempt to follow the teachings of Jesus, as Edmund did, may we have the courage to stand up for what is right, have the strength and love for ourselves and others to say ‘No’ when it is necessary, and to be kind and gentle when needed.

Thank you all for your involvement in Catholic Education in the Edmund Rice Tradition in 2006 and I wish you, your families and friends, health, happiness and peace for 2007.

Br Kevin P Ryan Province Leader of the Christian Brothers SA and WA

College Board Administration

Board Members At the conclusion of 2006 Mr Wayne Bull and Mrs Moira Sinagra retired from the Board. It is fitting to say that both of these members contributed a great deal during their time in office, both serving on various subcommittees throughout their seven years. I thank them sincerely for their tireless work and support of Trinity College.

The Board welcomed Mr Wayne Bowen, Br Kevin Paull and Mr Bob Shields (who joined the Board midway through 2005). These gentlemen have a long association with the College as a parent, past pupil, past teacher and mentor and we are delighted with their appointment.

Strategic Planning & Capital Development With constant referral to our Strategic Plan and using The Charter as our guide, the Board has worked very hard this year to ensure that the College has a sound financial footing before committing any further funds to the capital developments of the College. The Board is very aware of the demands of education in the 21st century and the level of service expected from the families within our community. It has been a year of consolidation, consultation, planning and strict financial attention. This means that in coming years the College will be in a strong position to provide the infrastructure required in this ever changing world of education.

The launch of the Chapel and Gibney Hall Restoration Appeal was a very important step towards our process of renewal and continuing to ensure that the buildings within the campus continue to serve the needs of our school effectively. The support for both of these projects has been outstanding and we thank all contributors and ask that all families give consideration to being a part of this worthy cause.

The various sub-committees of the Board have been very busy throughout the year, with great results.

The Finance Committee has continued to seek ways to ensure that the College continues to be a relatively low fee paying school, whilst at the same time ensuring that our long term financial viability is maintained. A review of all financial expenses has led to some strong initiatives and I thank the members of this hard working committee for their diligence and commitment.

As mentioned at Speech Night, the need to review the fee structure is a yearly exercise and requires much debate and serious deliberation. We are very aware of the strong connection to our founder, Blessed Edmund Rice, and continue to support his strong belief that every child deserves an education. The level of support that is provided to many families in our community is something the Board wishes to maintain and continue. With this in mind, we are

constant in our attention to the level of fees and the level of concessions that are offered.

The Marketing Committee which includes our Community Relations Officer, Ms Sandra Doick, and Bursar, Mr Michael Burgess, has worked diligently to ensure that we develop a strong connection across all aspects of our vibrant community; I thank these hard working people for their love of the College and their dedication to our spirit.

Under the chair of Mrs Moira Sinagra and with a strong membership, the Building and Grounds Committee has developed a strong and effective line of communication with the EPRA and other outside entities. With all the development that is occurring in our section of the city it is important that we at Trinity are seen, heard and continue to play a proactive role in this ongoing development. The importance of the College as an educational precinct is well supported and acknowledged by all entities.

Underlying all this hard work is our amazing Bursar, Mr Michael Burgess. His attention to detail and diligent record keeping ensures that all meetings are well documented and that tasks are carried out efficiently and effectively. On behalf of all members of the Board and sub-committees, thank you for all your work.

It is pleasing to see an increase in Old Boy involvement at the College. The TOBA Committee and Executive Officer, Mrs Anna Gingell, hope to expand this involvement in 2007.

At the conclusion of 2006 we said farewell to Mr Robert Henderson. With the appointment of our new Principal, Mr Ivan Banks, the College can look forward to a strong and continued development of the ethos of Edmund Rice.

“Men for Others”, such as Mr Robert Henderson, have shown by personal example the importance of being part of a vibrant, giving and proactive community. I personally, and on behalf of all members of the Board, wish Robert all the very best as he pursues his career in the education of young men in the tradition of Edmund Rice. I thank him for the incredible work that he has done at the College, for his leadership during some difficult times and for his never failing sense of faith and belief in Trinity College.

Mrs Leanne O’Dea Chair, Trinity Board

T

he 2006 Budget approved by the College Board continued the period of consolidation in preparation for the future developments on the College Campus.

This year the College assisted 91 families with School Fee Concessions and 223 Mr Michael Burgess families with Sibling Bursar Discounts.

The other expenditure components of the 2006 Budget were: Teacher Salaries Teacher assistants Salary on costs (superannuation & workers comp) Classroom resources Administration salaries and on costs Grounds, maintenance and cleaning costs General costs including insurance Loan costs – Principal and Interest Concessions and Scholarships Health Care Card discount Capital Expenditure

$5.9 million $1.3 million $ .7 million $ .6 million $ .8 million $ .9 $2.0 $ .6 $ .5 $ .2 $ .4

million million million million million million

Over the past years the College has seen a change in the income composition such that there is an increasing demand on the parent to fund the services that the College offers. In 2006 the income received was: Tuition Fee Income Other Income State Government Grant Commonwealth Government Grants

$6.2 $ .4 $2.5 $5.1

million million million million

Technology Levy The Technology Levy raises approximately $300,000 and goes towards the ongoing upkeep and improvement in education technology. Further student systems were purchased or leased and new smart boards are being trialled.

Capital Program Towards the latter part of 2006 the College Board approved two refurbishment programs.

Chapel refurbishment will see the refurbishment of pews, installation of multi media, establishment of a side altar, new piano, new sanctuary furniture and refurbishment of the sacristy, construction of a new pathway around the Chapel and many other items.

During 2007 a memorial garden will be established alongside the Chapel.

Gibney Hall refurbishment will result in the installation of reverse cycle air-conditioning, extension of the stage and the improvement of acoustics and lighting.

Further reviews will be completed during 2007 to access the other requirements.

These two programs form the foundation to the Restoration Appeal which, it is hoped, will raise the monies required to complete the programs. To date some $150,000 has been raised.

Staff During 2006 Mrs Katie Brady, our receptionist, left us on Maternity Leave. Katie has presented her family with a lovely daughter, Sophie.

Mr Graeme Hunter, who looked after maintenance at the College, proceeded on Long Service Leave. This will precede his departure from the College in March 2007. Graeme has been with the College for some 25 years and is the third member of his family to work at the College. Graeme will be fondly remembered for his friendly disposition and ready wit.

As always on behalf of the College Community I thank the staff for their efforts during 2006.

006 is almost over, done and dusted. Results for most disciplines are, or will shortly, be available for anxious students. Teachers will either rejoice or face a time when they lament the results and seek the reasons for poor outcomes. The main sporting fixtures are over and the usual triumphs have been celebrated.

The music and artistic accomplishments have been noted and rightfully praised. Religious Education has been subject to testing and scrutiny but the whole area in which I operate is untested, probably because it is next to impossible to gauge spiritual growth in young men or indeed in any person. Are there possible markers which can be used to measure success or failure in this field? I am unsure but I do know there are three areas where I attempt to measure my own spiritual health and which I feel have relevance to the young men at the College.

Prayer is an area where the individual communicates with the creator, both by speaking and listening. It includes, but goes way beyond, a shopping list of things that we desire for ourselves or others. It is the ability to get into contact with God. It requires constancy and discipline in regard to time and place.

I would hope that every student would come to a longing for communication with God and take the necessary steps to achieve this.

The Scriptures are a constant and insistent spur to find the Jesus factor in our daily lives. That is what the early Christian communities from where the Gospels arose did and it is reflected in the singular nature of each Gospel. The Jesus presented is a Jesus living and challenging in their daily lives. I find the Sunday Gospel, with its widespread choice of the four Gospels, as a constant and pertinent challenge to me.

I would hope that each student would take up the challenge of the Sunday Gospel and find the Jesus challenge within it.

Transformation is change written in capital letters.

What was before becomes something different, though the seeds of change are already there. An event in our lives, an intervention of another brings about something quite significant. The most profound transformation in human history occurred when the dead body of Jesus was raised to life. We have the opportunity to share in this epoch making event each time we celebrate the Eucharist. It is therefore sad to

hear people say that the Mass is boring. Maybe the actions and the words become pretty similar and repetitive but the reality is so much deeper. We are challenged right from the start: • To admit our faults and with God’s help attempt a transformation of our way of life.

• We are challenged in the readings to reflect the life of Christ.

• Our simple gifts change into Him who underwent the greatest transformation in human history.

• Our feeble efforts at transformation are strengthened by sharing the sacred meal with our risen Saviour.

Transformation is such an exciting prospect that God has reserved it for something very special, the sacrifice and sacred meal we refer to as the Mass.

I suppose I have to be content that there is really no definitive measure of spiritual growth. I do believe that these three indicators of Prayer, Gospel Reflection and Eucharistic Transformation provide some sort of measure both for myself and the students at the College.

Parent School Partnership Initiatives Pastoral

Enrolments In Year 8 there are 180 boys enrolled annually at Trinity College with seven places offered to Indigenous boys.

Currently we have thirty three Indigenous students enrolled at Trinity and, for the first time, three are enrolled at the Junior School. Trinity has an Mr John Jacky exceptional retention rate of Indigenous Student Liaison Indigenous students, as again we congratulate six boys for successfully completing their Year 12 studies and becoming future TOBA members.

Reconciliation Assembly

Five years ago I was the only Aboriginal on staff, today there are two of us as we welcome Mr Derek Hunter for 2006. Mr Hunter replaces Mrs Jodie Bin Sali as our Aboriginal Teaching Assistant while Mrs Bin Sali takes her twelve month study leave at Notre Dame University in Fremantle.

Mr George Walley is a trained Junior School teacher, singer, songwriter, Nyungar historian and well respected local Nyungar community member, who completed the Welcome to Country at this year’s Reconciliation Assembly at Trinity. Mr Walley also played the didgeridoo and was very well accompanied by our College Senior Ensemble Percussion Band. Old Boy Terry Morich (Class of 1982) was our special guest speaker. Mr Morich incorporated this year’s NAIDOC theme, Past, Present and Future into his inspiring speech to the Assembly. Mr Morich spoke about his past and growing up as a Nyungar. He also spoke about his immediate family, his employment experiences and his time as a Police Officer in the WA Police Force, before alluding to his present and current studies as a fourth year medical student at UWA. He impressed upon the boys how a good education from Trinity has helped him achieve what he has today and how in the future he intends to use his education to help others.

Speech Night

Staff

The Indigenous Parent Schools Partnership Initiatives Committee (PSPI) is responsible for funding the after school homework classes, the Year 8 Discovery Day to UWA, the Reconciliation Assembly Luncheon and this year’s trip for four upper school students to attend the Indigenous National Assembly in Alice Springs.

Homework Classes The after school homework program has fast become one of the more consistent and successful PSPI projects and currently employs two fulltime tutors, with many of our students benefiting from the project. The homework classes operate out of the PL Duffy Centre every Monday and Tuesday from 3.05pm to 5.00pm.

Indigenous National Assembly The four Senior School boys who took part in the Alice Springs Dreaming from The Heart Assembly were Tyson Yarran (Yr 12), Jarrhan Jacky (Yr 12), Daniel Mills (Yr 11) and Callum Morich (Yr10). Dreaming from the Heart took place during the first week of the Term 3 holidays and celebrated the 20th anniversary of the visit of Pope John Paul II to the Red Centre. The tour was a timely

Trinity Old Boys’ Association TOBA

I

n 2006 it was a great honour to accept the role of TOBA President, following in the footsteps of past Old Boys who have also walked Trinity’s hallowed corridors.

I would like to acknowledge in particular my predecessor, Mr Les Conceicao, for the significant contribution he Mr Darren Taggart TOBA President made during his six year tenure and TOBA is delighted that Les has elected to remain on the Executive Committee.

On behalf of the Association I would like to pay tribute to other Committee members, especially Nick DiLello, Mark Scully, Gianni Redolatti, David Foti, Chris Flamer and Brendan Molony. Without their valuable assistance, TOBA’s aim of reacquainting Old Boys and establishing networks through which the College and its students will ultimately benefit, would not be achieved.

TOBA’s appointment last year of Mrs Anna Gingell as the Association’s Executive Officer has allowed the Association to raise its profile within the College community and beyond. One of Anna’s many roles is the coordination of TOBA events. Throughout the year, almost monthly, there are occasions where Trinity Old Boys come together, either to socialise among themselves or as part of the wider Trinity community.

There are sundowners and a luncheon with the Old Aquinians; of course sport has a role with the Annual Golf Day and the TOBA Sports Day. Two breakfasts are also held to support present students; the first before the Head of the River and the second prior to

graduation. The Trinity Sunday Mass is now an annual event and numbers attending the Mass rose significantly this year. Probably the most popular event of the year is the TOBA Art Show which has become one of the major TOBA social events at the College.

This year’s show was again a resounding success and much of this was due to the professionalism and diligence of Anna and the Executive, in particular Gianni Redolatti and Mark Scully. Even Anna’s husband, Andy, was there to lend a much needed helping hand.

Throughout the year Anna, in consultation with TOBA year representatives, organised a total of seven reunions for Old Boys. These social occasions were not just monopolised by the younger men. As a further example of the undisputed unity and connection between Trinity and its parent college, CBC The Terrace, a fifty year reunion for students who left the Terrace in 1956 was held.

Trinity Old Boys’ Association TOBA

In 2006 TOBA introduced several new initiatives to offer a better support service to its members. On Thursday, 23 November 2006 TOBA launched its own website, www.toba.net.au, located on an independent server at the College. Old Boys are strongly urged to keep themselves up to date with the Association’s events and reunions and to ensure their current contact details are held by the Association. A database has been established through which members will receive regular updates on social gatherings and future projects.

the TOBA and Trinity communities to utilise the many talents within its own ranks, while supporting each others businesses and thereby building up a greater sense of kinship. Such affiliations will help the College in the long term as there will be a broader base of support for College projects that would usually rely on the same handful of benefactors. It is estimated that the Business Directory will be distributed to more than 6,000 TOBA members and existing College families.

All College families will receive more information on this project in early 2007 via a mail-out.

Please remember, the Association’s ability to contact and keep its members up to date with functions is only as good as its members taking two minutes to update their contact details on-line via a secure connection.

Please go to www.toba.net.au and follow the link.

On behalf of TOBA I would like to thank the College for its support over the past year and in particular our outgoing Principal, Mr Rob Henderson. We extend our very best wishes to Rob on his new appointment as Principal of CBC Fremantle. I would also like to congratulate and welcome our new Principal, Mr Ivan Banks, and look forward to a continuing rewarding and fruitful relationship between TOBA and Trinity College, where students and ex-students alike remain the primary beneficiaries.

Next year TOBA will establish a Business Directory where both its members and other families of the wider College community may advertise their businesses and related services. This is the brainchild of Nick DiLello and it is a widely held belief that such an initiative is well overdue. Lineage advertisements within the Business Directory will be free of charge, whilst larger display advertisements will incur a minimal charge. The aim of this scheme is to enable

Parent Council N

ow in its thirteenth year, the Parent Council has again been successful in achieving each of its four objectives: consultative, educational, social and fundraising.

The regular meetings of the Council provide the opportunity for open communication and consultation between parents and the College. This opportunity is widely appreciated by both the parents and the College.

The Council invited Dr Peter Dingell to address parents of the College on the topic of “Happier, Healthier and Smarter Kids”. His entertaining presentation was well received and his helpful tips well regarded.

The Council’s Annual “Sundowner” in February provided the opportunity for social interaction for members of the College community and a suitable welcome to the year for new parents. Year 8 parents were also welcomed by the Parent Council with a drink and a smile at their information night held in November.

The Parent Ball was again a resounding success and is increasingly popular as a major community building event on the Trinity College social calendar.

which was aimed at providing some much needed shade and seating for the boys around the grounds of the College. It is appropriate to give a special thank you to Virginia Fairchild for managing this project in a very efficient and dedicated manner.

Parent Council

I would like to thank all members of the Council for their contributions throughout the year and especially Margaret Ker, Virginia Fairchild, Denese Mackin, Jill Mills, Clive Watt and John Chortis, who are retiring after a three year commitment. I urge all parents to consider putting themselves forward when vacancies are advertised in the New Year.

hat a wonderful year we have had. We have been pleased to welcome some “new faces” and it was wonderful to see some Mothers returning after a couple of years absence. We are very grateful for any help that we receive as it helps to keep Canteen prices to a minimum.

We all love a good chat and new babies born throughout the families are all talked about, photos shown and toasts made. All the exciting events at the College contribute to my love of my job and the challenges that we face encourage us to find creative solutions; nothing is impossible. Having supportive and hard working staff contributes towards the smooth running of the Canteen. This year has been very busy as we have catered for the students and also for many staff events.

We are always happy to see new faces in the Canteen; you don’t need to be experienced and if you do not wish to serve at the counter there are plenty of other roles to be filled. Call in and see us at any time, we would be happy to have a chat.

Trinity College Auxiliary President’s Report

W

ith our name change from Ladies Auxiliary to Trinity College Auxiliary, I began to reflect on the origins of the Committee and how it has evolved over the years. As early as 1930, as “CBC The Terrace”, the original Parent Association had already been established and it was under this banner that the “Ladies Committee” was formed. Even then they quickly became the support network for the school.

They raised a considerable amount of money “in order to meet the interest on the increasing debt and add to general funds toward the development of suitable sports grounds at ‘Clune Park’”. This Committee continued when the school divided to form Aquinas College and Trinity College in 1964.

amount of change, but also because even with the passage of time some things remain constant. In reading through past reports the prevailing comment is the dedication, enthusiasm and devotion of all these Committees to Trinity College, which is still true today.

I believe this is part of the “Trinity Spirit”, making Trinity College a great educational facility for our boys.

It is with sadness that we farewell some of our Committee members who have epitomised that Trinity Spirit with their hard work and support. Mrs Michelle Marinovich, Mrs Margaret Ker, Mrs Patsy Colan and Mrs Rosa Gotti have been a valuable part of our diligent and hardworking Committee and I will miss their friendship and dedication.

I am indeed grateful to all members of the Trinity College Auxiliary for their support, especially as time becomes such a valuable commodity in today’s world. This has been increasingly obvious to me this year and I am indeed grateful to the Committee, and in particular to Mrs Martina Stroud, Mrs Michelle Marinovich and Mrs Margaret Ker for maintaining continuity in my absences.

In those early days the “Ladies Committee” instigated and operated the Tuck Shop, the Opportunity Shop and second hand book sales. Funds raised were used to provide various items for the College including seating, Marilyn Harries President of the College television sets, increasing the capacity Mrs Auxiliary presents Mr Robert Henderson with of the Library and the Band Room. In a farewell gift at the Parent Helpers Supper order to raise these funds the Committee also held a To Mr Rob Henderson, our thanks and admiration for Cocktail Party, a Formal Dinner and a Melbourne Cup wholeheartedly embracing the Trinity Spirit and for Luncheon, providing all the catering themselves. They your support and appreciation of the Trinity College were also responsible for the School Ball which, Auxiliary in our endeavours and functions for the although by no means as elaborate as the extraordinary College. We wish you and your lovely family well at balls today, was none the less a major accomplishmentCBC Fremantle. Good luck Rob, we will miss you. and they still had the energy for a Parent Ball the following night!

I hope, despite the changing times and no matter how One of the truly amazing feats of the Committee, by then known as “The Ladies Auxiliary”, was the raising of monies for the provision of the pipe organ for the College Chapel. Twenty one years after the building of the Chapel the interior was finally complete. Even today it is held in high repute as one of the finest pipe organs in Australia.

Researching the history of the Trinity Auxiliary has been a revelation to me, not only because of the

22

many name variations the Auxiliary has, it will always be there to provide the College with an avenue for hospitality and a means to create fellowship and cooperation within the College community. This can only eventuate with your support and involvement.

Valedictory Address Speech Night

W

hen reflecting on our years at Trinity, it seems like only yesterday that we walked through the gates in the Centenary fence as timid Year 4s or 8s.

As the class of 2006 ends another of life’s chapters we end with many fond memories. Memories forged and embodied in each and every one of us through close ties and unforgettable friendships. Our time at Trinity has been filled with many great highs and some lows. It is a common myth that the lows are bad in life, but without them we would never move on, for success comes with learning from our failures.

Some people say that if you look at a work of art you will always see something of the artist. Others can recognise composers by listening to music. Though what we have created may not be as tangible as a painting or a piece of music, the class of 2006 leaves a legacy that is part of them.

When we began high school, the first thing we were taught in SOSE was that a model is simply a representation. A representation of something more complex in real life. Upon reflection on this, I realised that this phrase, although seemingly too simple, really does hold truth. School is much like a model of the real world, minus the bills to pay. It is in school that we are first exposed to rules and limits within a community outside our own homes. It is in school that we expand on our gifts and talents and use them for the betterment of a community.

What makes Trinity so special is that we have a sense of belonging here, not only to the school but also to something much bigger in life. A sense of belonging that students from other schools can only dream about.

As custodians of the Trinity tradition we are charged with upholding its values and reputation. We are called to follow the footsteps of Jesus, to be men for others and to be unafraid in the face of adversity. It is the Trinity spirit that grows in us all as students, Old Boys, teachers and parents that sees this legacy live on. A legacy that has been passed on from year to year not only since the beginning of the Christian Brothers College in 1894 but also since the time of Edmund Rice.

Edmund provided an opportunity for underprivileged boys to receive not only a textbook education but also even more importantly an opportunity to improve their lives by developing character and maintaining the Catholic heritage of Ireland. His vision for a life education full of diversity is the same vision Trinity aspires to. Through our many pursuits of higher and higher standards in the four pillars of the College, it is evident that we are being educated for much more than a set of exams. We are being developed into men of character, virtue and goodwill.

26

This year we have seen a tremendous amount of the TC spirit in action: with a close second in the

Desmond Yeo Head Prefect

swimming Inters and in the Head of the River, our fourth consecutive Alcock Cup, hat tricks in the Alcock Shield athletics and the Zenith Award for the most outstanding school in the Catholic Schools Performing Arts Festival. A driving force for this success is the TC spirit embodied in us all. A part of this spirit is to get out there and give it a go. This year we saw record numbers in many activities including the Catholic Schools Performing Arts Festival, which had over 400 entries and over 200 boys participating. The athletics team also had record numbers and was the envy of other schools.

While these victories will never be forgotten, my most profound memories lie in the times when there were no medallions to be seen. It is only during these times that a person’s true character is really tested. No matter if we won or lost, Trinity students have always had an innate sense of pride in their conduct on and off the field.

Another reason for our successes at Trinity is how the school spirit embodies all the facets of the College together. Much like the Eiffel Tower with its four pillars that eventually come together some 300 metres in the air. Although this may appear to be an odd parallel, it works. Faith, academia, music and sports are all linked. At Trinity we do not sacrifice one facet so that another can do well. Instead we strive to achieve well in all, bringing them together. Did you know that in every year Trinity has won the athletics, we have also won the Zenith award for music – not only in the past three years but also during the 1990s? It just goes to show that the TC spirit so common to us all is a major contributor to success in life.

Valedictory Address Every time we see the three crowns on our emblem we will always stand with pride in our achievements. It is a reminder of all that past Trinity students and we have achieved and stand for. The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are three but one. As one we are always working together and striving to be better men in all that we do. Crowns are also a symbol of power. We wear them with pride to represent the power entrusted to us through education and knowledge. With this power anything is possible. We must now step out into the world and make a difference – to stand up for what is good and honourable.

It is often the little things that we take for granted, that we will miss the most – like our chapel. When attending a National Faith Conference earlier this year, as I entered the chapel with one of the delegates, the first thing he said was that our chapel was like a ‘tardis’ – appearing small from the outside but big and spacious on the inside. His words have stayed with me and caused me to think of the fine detail that we often simply walk past in the school, not really appreciating until realising that they are part of the fabric of our schooling life.

Each day, Trinity has shaped each of us in a distinctive manner, making each of us unique and less afraid of the outside world, while protecting us somewhat from it.

To the younger students, make the most of your time at Trinity. It will not be long before you too will be at your last Speech Night. Trinity has a lot to offer you as it has to us as the Class of 2006. Use the opportunity while you can. Remember, the roots of education are bitter, but the fruits are sweet. So put your future in good hands – your own.

To the teachers and staff – on behalf of the Year 12s thank you for your continual support. Your efforts to try and get us to do our best will never go unrewarded.

Thank you for being more than teachers. Your friendship towards us has allowed us to be able to excel past what we ever expected. The best teachers teach from the heart, not from the book.

Speech Night

To the parents – many thanks for your continual support. It is you who have always been there for us during good and bad times. It is you who have given us the opportunity to attend Trinity and to make something of ourselves. It is your love that has shaped us over the years.

And finally to the Year 12s – I wish you all the best in all that you endeavour to achieve in the next year and the years to follow. May the friendships forged over the past five or nine years, continue to be as strong as they have been while at Trinity. May we continue to live justly within our society as Trinity has taught us to do. Thank you to each of you for always being there for each other.

Each and every one of you is a great leader. What you choose to do next is up to you. No one can decide but you. Wherever you go, go with all your heart and follow your dreams. And remember things turn out best for the people who make the best out of the way things turn out. Accept what you have and move ahead in life, do not follow where the path may lead. Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.

Desmond Yeo Head Prefect 2006

Speech Night Speech Night

C

ongratulations to all students and staff involved in the organisation of Speech Night this year. It was a resounding success and we have been delighted with the feedback that we received on the quality of the performances.

Mr Robert Henderson As always the Principal Music and Dance performances led by Dr Braham and Ms Bott were quite outstanding. This year we also had an excellent drama item with Who’s on the wing? very capably performed by Daniel Purcell (10BS) and Patrick Whitelaw (10RB). Mr Liggins cleverly adapted the original Who’s on first base? to fit an Australian context.

The 2007 Prefects were presented to the Trinity community at Speech Night. The Prefect Naming Ceremony involved The Book of Gospels, a candle and the Trinity Flag being symbolically passed from the current student leaders to next year’s Prefects. It is worth recalling the significance of each of these symbols: THE BOOK OF THE GOSPELS contain the story of Jesus, our role model and our inspiration. This is the Good News. May we be the good news for others: men of peace, justice and love.

THE CANDLE Jesus said: “I am the Light” and He came to show us the way. He also told us to let our light shine before others; to be a good example.

28

Finally, THE TRINITY COLLEGE FLAG represents all of the sound traditions of our school. It reminds us of strong and lasting friendships, games won and lost, fun days and hard days, academic and recreation. As our College hymn says: “All this is done in the name of Our Lord”.

Congratulations to Nicholas Barbas (11CA) and Mark Luca (11RK) who have been named as Head Prefect and Deputy Head Prefect for 2007. I am sure that they will provide excellent leadership to the Trinity community in the next twelve months.

Head of Senior School Senior School

T

he daily life of our senior students is full and challenging! In addition to courses and classes, students’ experience at school is enriched by the numerous sporting, cultural, and most importantly, faith and service experiences that the curriculum provides. I Mr Martin Tobin continue to be impressed by Head of Senior School the enthusiasm that our senior students have for College life and their capacity to integrate all of these elements. The Graduating Class of 2006 have certainly led the student body with distinction in these areas throughout the academic year and are to be complimented for the generous and genuine contribution that they have made to the College.

Senior School Council I take this opportunity to thank all members of the College’s Senior School Council for their effort and cooperation throughout the year.

The Council continues to focus on the implementation of the newly developed Courses of Study for 2006 and 2007 and beyond. The Council views the implementation of these courses as an opportunity for the College to provide a relevant and diverse curriculum that will meet our students’ needs next year and in the future. The collective experience of the members of the Senior Council and their diligence to ensure that they are informed and engaged with the implementation and ongoing review of these courses ensures that students and parents can be confident in its capacity to lead the Senior School through this process.

Moreover, the Council continues to work towards ensuring that Trinity College continues to be a leader in boys’ education through its pastoral and curriculum initiatives. An example of its efforts to do so this year is the audit undertaken by each learning area of their learning programs and experiences that promote academic excellence. This was then presented to the Promoting Excellence in Boys’ Education team. As a result it is intended that a more systematic and comprehensive approach to meet the diverse needs of our students will continue in 2007.

Dwellingup in January and from this moment it was evident that the group was cohesive and highly motivated.

The process for the nomination and selection of the Prefects for 2007 commenced in Term Three and the response from the student body was most pleasing.

This process was reviewed in 2006 to be further refined in 2007. The Prefects were formally presented to the College community at Speech Night. In collaboration with this group the College will review and where necessary redefine the roles and responsibilities of the College Prefects to ensure that we have a more meaningful experience for our senior leaders and a more active and effective student leadership in 2007.

Heads of Year The College is most fortunate to have a dedicated team of Heads of Year in the Senior School to assist students with their academic and pastoral needs. I take this opportunity to thank Mr Barry McKenna (Head of Year 12), Mrs Eileen Lane and Mr Geoff Jamieson (Heads of Year 11 during 2006) and Mr John Montagu (Head of Year 10) for their assistance throughout the year.

Closing Remarks It has been a privilege to undertake the role of the Head of Senior School for 2006 and an honour to serve the College that I cherished during my time as a student and as a staff member. I am convinced of the merits of the education that Trinity College provides for its students and I encourage all senior students in 2007 to make the most of the opportunities that the College provides. In our efforts to become Men for Others let us ensure that at all times we are true to our College Motto, In Nomine Domini, in our relationships and our studies.

I very much look forward to continuing to work with staff and families in this capacity in the years to come.

I would also like to recognise the contribution that Mr Robert Henderson has made to the College and, in particular, the Senior School during his time at Trinity College. His enthusiasm for Trinity College is greatly appreciated by the College community. We wish him all the very best for the future.

College Prefects 2006 and 2007 This year’s Prefect group are to be commended on their efforts as student leaders. The Prefect Camp was held at the College as a result of the bushfires in

he climax of twelve years of schooling is an exciting time for any student. Like many before them, the Class of 2006 approached the year full of anticipation and hope. As student leaders of the College, the boys were expected to reflect in their behaviour the values and Mr Barry McKenna attitudes that Trinity stands Head of Year 12 for. I am pleased to say that upon reflection the Year 12 cohort handled all the pressures and challenges that the final year of schooling presented and they carried on the Trinity tradition of being Men for Others.

Even before the new school year began, 28 boys took the opportunity to be a part of Kairos 13 held at Moore River. The enthusiasm to be part of a retreat program during school holidays was an indication that the retreat of 2006 would be a wonderful experience for all involved. When the new academic year began, prefects attended an induction camp.

Unfortunately a fire had closed access to Camp Kelly in Dwellingup and the boys had to conduct their activities at school. This did not stop the new prefect team from having an enjoyable and productive time.

Allocating tasks was a key part of the camp and the perfects formed committees to organise events such as school masses, leavers’ jumper production and many social events. Amongst all the jobs allocated, the most challenging and imminent was the organisation of the School Ball. Held during the first term holidays, a Harry Potter theme for the event was finally decided upon. Preparations for this spectacular event began early in Term One and on the night of the Ball, many were surprised how Gibney Hall could be transformed into Hogwarts Main Hall. While many students and parents gave up countless hours of time, the event would not have happened without Mrs Marilyn Harries, Mr Cosie Cherubino and Mr Vincent Yeo. These three made sure that the Year12 Graduation

Ball was an event to remember and I would like to thank them for all their dedication and hard work.

As the school year progressed, many of the 171 students realised that their final year of schooling would pass very quickly. With all students involved in Tabgha Retreats and many involved in Edmund Rice outreach programs, Amnesty International and Red Cross soup patrols, the boys proved that they were Men for Others. Year 12 students also excelled on the sporting field and in music. The high standard of performance this year resulted in winning the Alcock Football Cup for the fourth year in a row, winning the Alcock Athletic Shield for the third year in succession whilst also winning the Zenith Award for the most outstanding school in music – achievements that the boys can be truly proud of. By necessity the students had to also concentrate on their academic programs and many continued to achieve outstanding results.

Generally it can be said that the many aspects of the final year of school life, with its great challenges, were met by the boys and to celebrate this achievement the Year 12s with their families and College Staff gathered in Gibney Hall for a final mass and graduation ceremony in October. This was a special celebration and one that I am sure the boys will remember.

Finally, I would like to take the opportunity to thank the Pastoral Care Teachers of the Year Group for the time and effort they gave to the boys and who helped make the year such a success. Their hard work and enthusiasm made my task much easier. Also I would like to acknowledge the hard work of the College’s Prefects, especially Desmond Yeo as Head Boy. His ability to organise various activities was first class.

To the Class of 2006, go forward with pride, and enjoy whatever life presents to you. In Nomine Domini.

n 21 July during the year 2006 AD, at approximately 4:30pm on a sweltering summers day, I stepped off Continental flight CO47 and wandered into yet another airport – in Houston, Texas, USA. Months before the possibility of such an event occurring had never even entered my mind. Every year since 1994, students (numbering anywhere between thirty and sixty) venture from countries around the world and gather in Houston to be a part of the International Space School (ISS). In 2006 it was my turn to represent my country and my school at the ISS. After fifty-five long hours, more than half spent flying the Perth-Brisbane-Los Angeles-Houston route, I met my host family and quickly came to enjoy every second of my experience in Houston. While staying with my host family I woke every school day at 6.00am to be ready by 7.00am to get to school by 8.00am, where I would participate in the ISS until 5.00pm. The ISS took place at the University of Houston, Clear Lake, during the American summer break.

During the first week we got to know individual students, interact with them and involve ourselves in activities that either dealt with team building or promoting American culture. On the weekend we had a Culture Fest where we exchanged typical foods from the variety of cultures from which the students originate and activities to gain a sense of the identity of the group and of their countries. It was during the second week that we really had to get down to work: our task was to design a manned mission to Mars.

We were split into four groups dealing with different aspects of the mission: mission logistics; getting there; working there; and living there.

Throughout the two weeks we had lectures presented by astronauts, engineers, postgraduate students, etc

46

to inform us about many of the challenges we would have to deal with when going to Mars. We also toured NASA facilities at the Johnson Space Center to get an idea of how the real space industry works. We had to put our scientific knowledge, research skills, organisational skills, teamwork ability and computing skills to the test, and after working exceedingly efficiently for those four single days that we had, we finally succeeded in producing an entire mission. My experience in Houston was amazingly perfect and unique.

I would like to say a big thank you to Mr Blake and Mr Cooper for providing guidance prior to my leaving for Houston, and an even bigger thank you to Trinity College for providing the money for my flight to Houston. Trinity has provided me with one of the best experiences of my life so far and offers every single student the chance to achieve their highest potential by providing opportunities such as this. I wish the candidate(s) for 2007 good luck; it will become clear to them that the ISS experience is unlike any they have ever had and or will ever have again. I thank everyone for their support and wish Trinity College good fortune for the future. I hope that astronomy will come to play a bigger part in the life of Trinity College in years to come.

Mrs Eileen Lane Head of Year 11

ear 11, the first year of post compulsory education, is an exciting and challenging one for our students. It is a year when they must establish a sound study pattern in order to facilitate their Year 12 studies regardless of which career paths they have chosen to follow.

It is also a year when the students are presented with a number of new experiences aimed at developing their leadership skills. The first of these is the Cadre Peer Mentoring Program. Sixty Year 11 students volunteered their time to train and then work with the incoming Year 8 students to facilitate their entry into Trinity and introduce them to the rich traditions of the College. This was closely followed, at the end of Term 1, by Christian Service in which every student participated. The aim of the program is to put the students’ faith into action. The feed-back from the many service providers was excellent and demonstrated that the spirit of Edmund Rice is very much in evidence in the year group. As a follow up to the Christian Service, each class was involved in the Encounters Retreat Program where they were given the opportunity to consolidate their experiences.

Another community service activity conducted by the Year 11 students was their involvement in street appeals. All the organisations which were represented were impressed by the way our students presented themselves in public and greatly appreciated the funds raised for their particular cause.

Term 3 brought the realisation home that all too soon the Year 11 cohort would be the leaders of the College. With this in mind the Prefect body for 2007 was elected. During this consultative process, the students showed considerable maturity and commitment.

also participated prominently and enthusiastically in the sport life of the College. They were also determined that their social needs would be met. So, at the end of Term 3, they joined with Year 11 Mercedes students for their annual Spring Ball which was a great success.

The Year 11s first taste of leadership came with Unfair Day in Term 4. Their enthusiasm and cooperation was awesome and, despite the fact that the Junior School was unable to fully join in because of sporting commitments, $8,000 was raised which will go a long way to help the missions in India.

With the conclusion of Year 11 classes and the completion of examinations, Kairos 15, the first of the four day voluntary retreats for Year 12 students, was held. Thirty five students attended and it proved to be a most edifying and worthwhile time for these young men. It is inspiring to note the willingness of our students to give up their time for others. Eight Year 11 students will spend the Christmas holidays on pilgrimage to India where they will work with the underprivileged. Seventy four students will continue working on their Senior Christian Program and our students continue to man the Red Cross Soup Patrol.

In closing I would like to offer my deep gratitude to the Pastoral Care Group for 2006 – Mrs Savy-Walsh, Ms Pagoda, Mr Adams, Mr Conway, Mr Liggins, Mr Kosovich and Mr Martinskis, whose guidance and support of the students was always characterised by great generosity, compassion and commitment. I would also like to thank Mr Geoff Jamieson for his care and concern for the Year 11 students during Term 3.

006 has been a full and diverse experience for our Year 10 students. This very talented group of young men have been front runners in all areas of school life.

The four pillars of the College have been well supported by this year group.

Mr John Montagu Head of Year 10

Christian Service and Catholic Traditions We have had a number of significant Masses and Liturgies throughout the year. All of these have been well organised by the Religious Education Department and enthusiastically supported by the students. Their singing, musical performances and choir are a real feature. The earthy straight talking sermons from Father McMahon are always relevant to the boys and are much appreciated.

The Retreat Program is a positive experience for the Year 10s, as is the opportunity to be a part of our Community Service Department, serving meals to young children or being involved in soup kitchen patrols. A number of the boys write letters for Amnesty International under the guidance of Mr Leo Murray.

The Edmund Rice Outreach program is also supported by our Year 10s. Ian Chia, Joshua Hicks, Gerard Rosario, Alex Malkovic and Callum Morich have been very involved in both Amnesty and the “Eddy Rice Outreach”. The “Un-Fair Day“ was another success in 2006.

Academic The year group as a whole is very capable academically. Their performance in maths competitions, car design competitions (Seve Pratico) and the level of performance in Course One classes and the Literature classes have been excellent. These young men are a very personable and social group who have the potential to really succeed with their studies over the next few years.

Music, Dance and Drama Dr Robert Braham and Ms Ruth Bott have developed a culture of enthusiastic and professional performance in both Music and Dance respectively. Scores of students are given an opportunity to perform in various

Orchestras, Ensembles, Pipes and Drums, Choirs and Dance groups such as Guys in Groove. Breaking new frontiers and with assistance from Mr Charlie Liggins, Daniel Purcell and Patrick Whitehall performed their comedy routine Who’s on the Wing on Speech Night.

Absolute gold, well done men.

Sport The Year 10s have been at the heart of the school’s athletic and sporting success. We had numerous students representing the state in various sports. Kane Lucas and Xavier Foley, both State Football representatives, played in the victorious Alcock Cup Football side. Mark Birighitti and James Davies represented the state in Soccer. Travis Colyer kept wickets for the 1st X1 Cricket. Tom Coates and Brendan Lally played 1st X1 Hockey. Kyle Mackin, Wei Gen Ng and Scott Tognolini were 1st V111 Tennis players. Sam Burke was a State Lifesaving representative and played 1st Waterpolo.

Joshua Hicks showed great strength and stamina in the long distance events at the Athletics, running above his age group in the 800m and 1500m. He also broke several records in the winter Cross Country season.

Matt Cowie has represented Trinity and has competed nationally in Discus and Shot Put. The depth of talent in the College is outstanding and I congratulate all students who have excelled this year.

Many students are going on sporting tours over summer. The Rugby students are going to Singapore, USA and Canada and the Basketball students to the USA. The Cricket students are going to Queensland and the Football students to Melbourne next year. It certainly is a busy school.

In conclusion I would like to thank the PCG Teachers of Year 10 for their support throughout the year. They have been professional and onside with the students all year. I will look forward to taking the 2006 vintage crop of young men into Year 11 in 2007.

006 has been the second year of Trinity’s Middle School and during that time initiatives started in the first year have been consolidated along with a plan for future changes. A highlight of the year has been the growth of collaboration between staff, including the establishment Mrs Kerrie Fraser of strong links between Junior, Head of Middle School Middle and Senior School.

This collaboration continues to improve the education that students at the College receive. Trinity has a focus on relationships, because a successful school depends on effective communication between all members of the College community. It is vital that we all work together to meet the needs of the students.

Faith Development Faith Development is one of the guiding pillars of the College and continues to flourish in the Middle School thanks to the commitment of Father McMahon, members of Campus Ministry and the Religious Education team. The Year 8 students once again experienced the powerful Quest Retreat and made connections with their Year 11 ‘older brothers’. This connection was followed up with meetings conducted during some pastoral care lessons on Tuesdays in Terms One and Two, where the Year 11 students assisted their ‘younger brothers’ with organisational matters such as use of the College diary and homework. The Year 9 Galilee Retreat was also very successful where students are challenged to walk in the footsteps of Jesus. Year level Masses occurred each term and the school year concluded with a creative Advent Liturgy involving a great deal of input from students. A highlight of the year for many students is their involvement with Christian Service. This provides them with the opportunity to express their faith through action.

Academic Excellence Promoting academic excellence is a major aim of the College and a number of teams are working to improve what is done to assist students to achieve their potential.

Students enrolled in Year 8 for 2007 have undergone a series of tests to provide data to guide our planning for their curriculum needs. As well as assisting students with gaps in their knowledge, we will also focus on catering for gifted and talented students so that they are extended in learning areas where they excel.

The transition between Junior and Senior school continues to be an area where much work is being done. Links between Trinity Junior School and the Middle School have been strengthened, with collaboration between staff and a sharing of what is covered in certain year levels, so that students can be assisted to make connections with what is taught at different stages.

Middle School

In the second semester a very successful reading program for Middle School students has been provided

by Ms Cavallaro in the Library. The College is committed to improving students’ literacy skills and the reading program will certainly assist with this aim.

Pastoral Care Caring for each student as an individual is the aim of our pastoral care system at Trinity. Pastoral Care teachers, learning area teachers, the school counsellor and sport coaches work together to provide the best support possible for each student. Father McMahon is a vital part of the pastoral care team and his connection with students and parents is very powerful.

The students value his commitment to them and the way he interacts with them during their free time at the College.

Acknowledgements I would like to thank the many people who have not only showed a high level of commitment to the students, but have also provided me with support. The Heads of Years 8 and 9, the Middle School Coordinators and the Year 8 and 9 Pastoral Care teachers have demonstrated dedication throughout the year. Father McMahon, and the College Counsellor, Ms Anneliese Smith, have provided great assistance in the area of pastoral care. Mr Rom Cirillo has been invaluable with his expertise in the area of data analysis and Ms Marie Zwart has made a major contribution to the work associated with gifted and talented students. My daily work has been made so much easier by Mrs Teresa Greenfield. Her calm, organised approach is much appreciated not only by me but by the whole school. I would also like to thank the many parents I have had contact with throughout the year for their support of the College.

2006 has been a busy, fruitful year and I look forward to the challenges of 2007.

Year Nine Year 9

T

he Year 9 students for 2006 have completed a successful school year where they maintained high standards and engaged in the full life of the College with excellent spirit and endeavour.

A key to success for students, not only in Year 9 but for the entire journey at Trinity College, is the need to participate enthusiastically in the academic, spiritual, sporting and cultural pursuits of the College. In short, the more the boys are prepared to become involved with the vast opportunities provided at the College, the greater will be the rewards in terms of growing towards their highest potential.

Mr Robert Armitage Head of Year 9

Academically it was pleasing to note that across the year group a culture of academic excellence was maintained and built on from last year. Not only do a considerable number of students achieve impressive results, but the vast majority exhibit work habits that show genuine effort to maximise their respective levels of ability.

Spiritually the boys’ earnest participation in the whole school and year level Masses was another admirable dimension of their growth throughout the year. In addition, all Pastoral Care Groups had the opportunity to participate in our Galilee Retreats in September.

The boys responded well to the heartfelt personal talks from staff and the meaningful connections made to their own life experiences.

The Year 9s are also to be commended for their willingness to be Men for Others through their participation in a range of Christian Service programs, their support for the missions and the great commitment and flair shown in their fundraising on Un-Fair Day. Year level and Middle School assemblies provided students with a forum to provide feedback to their

peers about the diverse activities they find themselves involved in. A significant shift towards highlighting the achievements of students who do not typically find the limelight and giving students greater ownership in terms of the actual running of these occasions was extremely valuable.

The Year 9 students have also made an enthusiastic and talented contribution to the sporting life of the College where sportsmanship and team spirit remained a high priority. The winning Year 9 Rugby team and our significant contribution to the overall success of the College at the PSA Inters are worth highlighting. The boys were also seen to be loyal spectators at the PSA Swimming and Athletics competitions.

During Term 1 each PCG group went through an election process to choose two student councillors whose role was to not only represent the interests of their peers, but to serve others by assisting in Pastoral Care Group and broader College activities. While it is acknowledged that there is potential to expand the nature of their role, they were all good role models and performed well in providing positive leadership. I thank the councillors and encourage them to continue to seek out leadership opportunities in the years to come.

The centrepiece of our social calendar was the Trinity Mercedes ballroom dancing lessons which culminated in a formal dance hosted by Mercedes. The boys’ enthusiastic and gracious participation during this ten week program was outstanding.

In closing I would like to offer my deep gratitude to the Year 9 Pastoral Care group for 2006. Mr Osnain, Ms Campisi, Mr Shackleton, Ms Passetti, Mr Hankin, Mr Scott and Mrs Hourston all offered guidance and support to the students in a manner that was characterised by great generosity, compassion and commitment.

enior School is a significant milestone in the life of a student. The transition from a small Junior School class to the myriad of classrooms and teachers in Middle and Senior School can be very daunting. Throw in the added expectations of procedures, rules and after school activities Mr Bobby Emmanuel and it can be a very harrowing Head of Year 8 experience indeed. The Year 8 cohort of 2006 adjusted to these demands with great initiative and endeavour. Many boys found that the key to survival lay in being organised and taking personal responsibility for their lives at the College. Being at the College gives students great opportunity to partake in the numerous activities offered. From sports, dance, debating, music, as well as all the various subjects offered, the choice is endless. It is pleasing to see the number of boys getting involved in college activities and the relative increased growth in their physical, emotional and social selves over the year.

Early in the year, grandparents were invited to the College to spend time with their grandsons. Students had to guide their grandparents around the College and talk about their College experiences. This was followed by a morning tea with musical entertainment provided by a few select Year 8 musicians. Many pleasing comments were received about the excellent level of maturity and enthusiasm displayed by the Year 8s throughout the morning.

At the end of Term One, all Year 8s attended Camp Kelly in Dwellingup for a three day Orientation Camp.

The boys were involved in rafting, hiking, boat building, and spent time in the great outdoors with their peers.

Socially, this was a great opportunity to develop new and interesting friendships. Many of the bonds created at the camp will last for many years to come and will be a source of strength and support at the College.

68

Each homeroom group elected two members of their class to be student representatives. These select boys were expected to be good role models and provide leadership within the group. I would like to thank them and encourage them to continue to seek leadership roles at the College in the years to come.

There were many events over the year that the boys participated in, including the high standard of attention and behaviour at College assemblies, the enthusiastic support of the Swimming and Athletics carnivals. In particular I would like to mention their support and effort for the College Fun Run. The Year 8 group were the greatest participants in the St Vincent de Paul’s Winter Appeal and I would like to thank all those boys who brought in blankets and food items for the poor over the year.

The highlight of the year would have to be the Trinity Mercedes Hat Party. The Year 8s appeared en masse, in their best clothes and all sporting a fanciful hat. The night got off with some icebreakers and as courage swelled in the ranks, some highly energetic dance moves were spotted around Gibney Hall. I must congratulate the boys on their mature and good spirited participation at this social and at the social held at Penrhos College earlier in the year. Many favourable comments were made about the number of gentlemen at Trinity College.

In conclusion, I would like to offer my deepest gratitude to the Pastoral Care teachers, Mr Presser, Ms Prior, Mr Chapman, Mr Hinks, Ms Wilson, Mr Mueller, Mr Rousset, and Ms Wheeler. Their patience, expert tutelage and support have been the foundation that the Year 8 group have come to rely upon. On behalf of the Year 8s, thank you for your commitment, generosity and compassion.

Junior School

Head of Junior School Administration

E

ach school year presents new challenges for the staff and students and this year was no exception, in fact, the changes to education in 2006 have been extremely significant.

Students in general are very adaptable and cope with Mr Mark Hackett change well, however, the Head of Junior School sweeping changes imposed by the Federal Government regarding reporting procedures were quite taxing and demanding on the staff. I am pleased to say that the staff rose to the challenges and produced a report that was both informative and accurately reflected the ability of their students as well as adhering to the guidelines set down by the Federal Government.

Catholicity underpins all programs at Trinity College.

Religious Education and pastoral care go hand in hand and are integrated into all areas of the curriculum.

Central to pastoral care is respect and the staff always look for opportunities to enhance the self esteem of students by encouraging them to respect each other and the cultural diversity of our community.

The Peer Mentor program has evolved over the years and has been very beneficial in providing opportunities for the new students to learn from the experience of our boys in Year 7. When the Year 7 students initially interact with their Year 4 peers there is a real sense of pride amongst the older boys as they impart their knowledge and understanding of College traditions.

Literacy continues to be a major focus in the Junior School and our students have benefited greatly from the current reading program. The new initiative in spelling known as ‘Smart Words’ has also proven to be very successful in allowing students to progress and master words at rates suitable to their level and capabilities. This program will expand to encompass the students in Years 4 and 5 in 2007.

Information Communication Technology is an area that captures the interest of most students. Children embrace

ICT and use it as a valuable tool in many learning experiences. We are endeavouring to harness this interest through the installation of a third interactive whiteboard and focussing a significant portion of the staff professional development in this area next year.

The sports program has continued to expand and cater for a greater variety of students. The summer and winter programs are still our main focus, however, the introduction of a triathlon event created a great deal of interest amongst the students from Years 6 and 7.

This year, after an extensive series of trials a group of thirty six boys represented the College and secured the SSWA Triathlon trophy as champion school for 2006. This was an excellent result, but more importantly, it was another occasion for our students to display good sportsmanship and represent the school with pride.

I believe the essential ingredient for a school to flourish is the development of a sense of belonging and community. A positive school environment promotes pride and enhances self esteem which, in turn, encourages students to do their best and realise their full potential.

Parental support is also vital because many of the programs offered in the Junior School are heavily reliant on adult supervision and parents are often asked to assist in a variety of roles and we as a staff are very appreciative of their time and effort.

In conclusion I would like to thank the staff for their perseverance in what has been a very challenging year. The students are to be congratulated for the way they have embraced all facets and programs associated with school life.

Finally, I must acknowledge the wonderful leadership shown by the young men in Year 7. The example they give to the younger students has assisted greatly in the positive school environment that currently exists in the Junior School.

Junior School Concert and Presentation Evening T

his year’s Junior School Concert and Presentation Evening returned to Gibney Hall on Monday the 4th December and was hosted

by Ms Catherine Tesoriero and Mr Gordon Dean.

This year’s event trialled a variation on previous years’ class performances, through Ms Ruth Bott the adoption of a common Performing Arts Coordinator theme. Performances were based on the story Where in the World? adapted by Mrs Elisabeth Martyn and Ms Ruth Bott.

The evening began with recognition of Prefects ‘old and new’ and the passing of the Junior School candle which our new leaders will use as their guide for the coming year. The Junior School Principal, Mr Mark Hackett, in his address, spoke of another successful year in all aspects of the College’s four pillars of education and the genuine care and spirit that is alive amongst the students, staff and families of the Trinity community. He too spoke briefly about the Curriculum Framework, citing examples of its progress and how well the Junior School staff were responding to its trials and challenges. In closing he gave words of praise and thanks to our outgoing College Principal, Mr Robert Henderson, wishing him well on behalf of the entire Junior School, as he embarks on his new chapter as Principal of CBC, Fremantle. Christian Leadership and Endeavour Awards were distributed by the guest of honour, Mr Robert Henderson. Both Year 7 classes were presented with class photographs by their teachers Mr Gavin Bell and Mr Tony Maxfield.

The night’s performances with their running theme of places from around the world began with Junior

School Music Teacher, Mrs Elisabeth Martyn conducting the Year 6/7 Elastic Band in their sprightly and then gentle renditions of Bunyip Blues and Quiet Moments. This was followed by our Year 5 classes singing and swaying to Calypso Calypso! The Year 6/7 Choir then gave a stirring rendition of New York, New York and then sung beautifully the song, Tears from Clouds. Mrs Martyn continued her able conducting with the Year 4/5 Choir as they sang superbly their two songs The Wind and Lullaby. The Year 6 classes performed with percussion their Japanese song Hitori, followed by the Year 4s and a very enchanting song from Samoa, Tiki Chant. The recently formed choir ‘Get A Grip’ sang Walking in the Air with clever harmonies.

Junior School

The evening was still full of energy and surprise with the Year 7s performing their own music on electric and acoustic instruments, rapping and dancing to an arrangement of the Hilltop Hoods song Coming Up directed by Ruth Bott. This energy continued as BIG (Boys In Groove) danced their latest “mechanised” offering, Motor, to “electric” applause! Forty seven boys in green overalls worked the stage using repetition and vibration to revitalise the audience ready for their car journeys home!

The night concluded with the whole school singing, We’re the Future of Tomorrow and a rousing performance of the school song In Nomine Domini.

This was a wonderful night of student performances, a celebration giving thanks for the innumerable things that make the Junior School the superb place it is!

34 is the population of 7 Blue – 2006,

Mr Tony Maxfield Year 7 Blue

We’re a good looking bunch; we will probably attract the chicks.

We’ve studied World Wars and Canberra, also our solar boats, But it’s the true friends in 7 Blue that have kept us all afloat.

In Term Three we started reading a book called Parvana, Under the Afghan Taliban who imprisoned her father.

Life in Afghanistan certainly is tough, But Parvana, Hassan and Asif never give up.

Mr Yates was our relief and our teacher Mr Max, Term Three was so busy we had no time to relax!

Our poetry was a big thing throughout the year, We have all had fun and that is quite clear.

The highlight of the year was the Canberra trip, From high up in the plane Perth is just a blip.

Getting up in the morning was a bit of a climb, But it certainly was a trip of a lifetime.

We have a homework contract almost every week, If it wasn’t for school we would not be pushed to our peak.

So that’s the story of 7 Blue and a very successful year.

If I was old enough I would probably sit back.... .... and pop open a beer!

Matthew Hopkins

At the start of Term Three we had a new boy arrive, His name was Sean and he is Thai.

He’s fitted in well and made many friends, And he’ll be at Trinity, one of us until the end.

What a Year in 7 Blue This wonderful year in 7 Blue, There was always something that you could do.

Whether it was reading Parvana or constructing boats, Or picking up papers and writing essay notes!

82

On our Confirmation retreat we had such a great time, White water rafting and the food sublime.

The idea of the camp was to prepare for our Confirmation, And to focus our thoughts on that huge occasion.

There’s so much to tell but I’ll explain it all later, Because it’s impossible to fit it all on this paper.

Thinking back it all seems pretend, But sadly we have nearly reached the end.

There have been some tough times, sometimes in strife, But my journey through Junior School has been the time of my life!

n Term Two, 7 Green went on our Confirmation Retreat to Camp Kelly in Dwellingup.

When we had settled into Mr Gavin Bell our dormitories we went Year 7 Green rafting and played a trust game. When it started to get dark, we had mass with Father Mac and watched a movie called “Remember the Titans”.

This year we received the Sacrament of Confirmation – where we took another step into becoming better Christians. During the weeks leading to Confirmation we went to other students’ houses to prepare for the event. On the night of our Confirmation we were lucky to have Fr Mac as our celebrant. Our families and sponsors came along to enjoy the special occasion with us.

For our assembly item, we rewrote the words to Ben Lee’s song called ‘Catch My Disease’. To the song we played the marimba and the glockenspiel. Ms Bott helped us a lot and she included Mark on guitar and Cody on drums.

James Usher & Louis Antonas

Canberra Tour We arrived in Sydney and went to the SCG to watch the Dockers vs the Swans. The next day we went to church and looked around Sydney. Then we went to Canberra and visited the AIS, Questacon, a Dinosaur Museum, Parliament House and Perisher Blue.

Everything was great fun!!

Parry Nguyen & Julian Pintaudi

This year for the school Cross Country we ran three kilometres, which was quite tiring. For the Triathlon we had 12 teams competing in a 150m swim, a 4km bike ride and a 1.5km run. It was a great event at the Nedlands foreshore.

Cameron Gadenne & Jordan Bucolo

Maths Extension

Big Walk and Father’s Day Breakfast

Mr Hackett has taught us an extensive range of maths topics, from Algebra to Pythagoras, which will help us in future years. There was a good mix of mathematical talents and humour in the classroom.

Mark Wong & Michael Quinlan

On the 29th of September, the Junior School went on a big walk to Burswood Park and back. It was a great day! On Father’s Day we had a sausage sizzle with our dads.

Winter Sport The Ian McRae Cup was the highlight of the winter season; it was a great match against Aquinas. Soccer had a strong team, winning the majority of their games; the hockey and rugby teams also had a lot of fun throughout the season. Thanks to all of the coaches.

Joshua Lathwell & Joseph Clear

The Lightning Carnival On a great day for sport, our hockey team had a shaky start, losing most games but we beat Aquinas, which was a great victory! The ‘A’ soccer team was ready. We won our first two matches, lost our third to Scotch, and won the rest of our games.

nother Year has flown by.

Even the boys have said this which means they must love school dearly!

We also farewelled two boys from our class, Eamonn McDermott and his family returned to Ireland at the end of Term One and Daniel Richards and his family went Mr Gordon Dean Year 6 Green to Queensland in Term Three.

Both boys were missed by their peers as they all started at Trinity in Year 4.

It has been a very hectic year and the boys have had many varied learning experiences as is best summed up by the boys themselves.

Mr Gordon Dean

Student Reports This year in Six Green has been fun. We had two interesting excursions, one to Fremantle Prison and the second to Parliament House. When we went to Fremantle we also had lunch at Kailis Restaurant. I have learnt a lot from Mr Dean who is a pretty cool teacher.

Jeremy Ryan I enjoyed Year 6 because I have many friends and also was amused by Mr Dean’s funny manner. The classes were enjoyable, mostly because we learnt as well as having fun. Our “Camping Day” organised by our pre-service teacher, Ms Nelligan was terrific. She also made special t-shirts for us.

John Paul Mondelo

This year was great fun. We faced a lot of challenges which is good to get us prepared for Year 7. Sport was great! My favourite day was when we went to Parliament House. Although two of my friends went away to different cities, it was a fantastic year.

Sean Grogan When we went to Parliament House, we had a debate in the Lower House which was fun. This has been one of the best years at Trinity.

Blair Stroud I enjoyed my year in Year 6 being in Mr Dean’s class.

Mr Chitty also took us for Science and we did lots of experiments which was terrific.

Eddison Baroni This year was a bit challenging for all of us with the sport and classroom work. My favourite subjects were spelling, maths and sport. I enjoyed this year.

James Toncich I have really enjoyed this year in Six Green with all the fun activities we did with our teachers Mr Dean and Mr Chitty. It has been a great year.

Louis Pesce In Term Four we had a ‘Camping Day’. We played carry the marshmallow on a straw, searched for treasure in a treasure hunt, told campfire stories and enjoyed many other fun activities. We had hotdogs for lunch. The day was extra special because we had no school work.

n Term One we went to camp, It was at Forest Edge.

There were so many fun things to do there, Like climbing up a ledge.

Ms Lissa Coleman Year 5 Blue

We had a huge mud fight, One group against another.

We threw mud at them until, We turned upon each other.

Then we went abseiling, Climbing down a wall.

Though it did seem like, We couldn’t actually fall.

There were other things we did, But I can’t name them all.

There were so very many that, To sleep you will fall!!!!!

Peter Matthys

Term Two In Term Two we saw some cars that went really fast.

The cars only went slow so they didn’t run into the fence. We needed earplugs so the loud cars didn’t burst our eardrums. The flames at the back of the car

were really huge. Even though we were a fair distance away from the car we could still feel the heat from the flames. At the end of the term we had a party for Miss May with lollies and biscuits and other yummy things.

Nicholas Di Nardo

Term Three Term Three was the busiest of them all but 5B seemed to change from the busiest to the funniest. Our magnificent assembly was the funny remake of Super Billy Goats Gruff and we had lots of fun and so did the audience. We also had the Athletics Carnival where Anton and Josh competed for champion boy. It was a great term!

William Colreavy

The Whole Year Reflecting on this year has made me realize how good it was. Everyone in 5B has had a great time. Friends are what made my year really great. Listening to Ms Coleman read Eragon has been awesome. Elections for Prefects and Head Boy were intense. And camp was very entertaining. This year has been a wonderful experience for me and I have learnt so much.

Hopefully next year will be as good as this one was.

T

he best day in the year was the first day of Year 5! I like Year 5 because it was my second year at Trinity and I knew a lot more people than last year. Another good thing is that I got to meet one of the nicest teachers that I’ve ever had. Also, I got to meet some of the boys that I didn’t know last year.

James Coombs

This year in 5 Green was an excellent year. It was very enjoyable and fun. On the first day some were nervous, excited or annoyed at having to go back to school! One special part about Year 5 is that we got to go to camp in Waroona in Term One. We stayed for three days and two nights. We did so many fun activities. At school some other things we did were read the Specky Magee books and we had a Hating Alison Ashley fashion parade after reading the book!

It was very embarrassing! This year was a very fun year.

Sheldon Russell

In 5 Green I liked doing our crepe paper fish because it was fun and I enjoyed it!

I think 5 Green has improved throughout the year and that all the things that we did were fantastic! The best thing that I enjoyed was when we went to camp because my team and I worked all together and encouraged one another. I also enjoyed Hating Alison Ashley because we didn’t have to write long paragraphs about it and it was very interesting to listen to and watch the movie!

Matthew Hadfield

Ms Nicole Raguseo Year 5 Green

I also enjoyed our first day where we got to see who our classmates were going to be for the year. My favourite part of the year was camp. I thought camp was fun because we got to go abseiling, orienteering, rock climbing, screen printing, have turns on the flying fox, canoeing and raft building. I loved this year because it was really fun!

Stuart Zekulich

This year in 5 Green we have done a lot of stuff. My personal favourite was camp. I liked it because it helped me get along with people I don’t usually play with at school. My favourite activity at camp was the abseiling because when everyone was down they all got encouraged.

Year Four Blue Year 4

I

t was my first day at Trinity.

The bell rang and I walked into class. A bolt of new faces flashed into my mind. We sat down and our teacher said, “Hi, My name is Mrs Messer and I’m pregnant.” I raised my hand and said, “Hey, my mum is pregnant too!” On the third day she announced Mr Matt Hamer we were doing ‘Pirates and Year 4 Blue Explorers’ as our class theme.

“Cool,” I thought. I remember every Friday we would watch BTN and then write down our favourite part.

On Fridays we also had Bible Stories and talked about our Quality Gifts. On Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays we did my favourite subject, Maths.

Andrew Bottega In Term Two we had a teacher called Miss Totaro. In this term I remember going to the Schoenstatt Shrine to prepare for our First Holy Communion which was in Term Three. At the Shrine we made our candle and went in the Chapel that was at the Shrine. There we had a taste of the bread (not the real stuff). That term we also had to come up with a way to get the Tasmanian miners out of the cave. We were allowed to make it unrealistic but not too silly.

Term Three was great because our class got a new teacher called Mr Hamer. Mr Hamer gave us extra sport and games. But I enjoyed the Holy Communion the most because we had our first taste of the bread and our families were there to see us; we all felt so proud. The class had our first assignment for Term Three, but this one was weird, it was sort of … um … fun. Call me crazy, but this one was fun! We found out a lot about animals and we all enjoyed the term.

Richard Giorgi In Term Four we did some very exciting things. For example we made a model of Earth and the Sun, we learnt about the Solar System, and we created our own dinosaurs. We made a Pie for Beasts and wrote Acrostic poems. We also wrote stories about Hercules.

I think that this term was very enjoyable and best of all we were getting close to Christmas.

e have all had a great time in 4 Green this year. From the very start of the year when we met Ms Boe and Ms Tesoreiro we all knew that the year would be a safe and happy one. The boys in 4 Green are wonderful. Our teachers say that we are the best class ever because we all behave so well, work really hard and are always kind to one another.

Everyone in our class is honest. Our class has decided to let everyone contribute to our Annual article. Each person in 4 Green has written one sentence which tells of the best thing about being in 4 Green this year.

We hope you enjoy reading them.

Junior Faith Education Junior School

A

s tradition has it, we commenced the school year with a Mass prepared by the teachers, setting a wonderful example of what was to follow with Year level Masses.

At this Mass we had the blessing and presentation of the Prefects’ and House Captains’ Badges.

The Year level Masses are a central part of our Faith Development Program. Each class has several opportunities during the year to organize the Mass for the rest of the school community.

This year Masses were well supported by parents and it has now become a tradition that the parents who attend Mass bring a plate and have morning tea in the Boardroom after Mass. It provides an opportunity for parents to get to know each other and more importantly, to build on our community spirit.

In Term One we also had our Holy Week paraliturgies.

Year 5 Blue did Palm Sunday, 4 Blue Holy Thursday, 6 Blue Good Friday and 7 Blue Easter Sunday.

Needless to say teachers did a terrific job highlighting the significance of these events leading up to Easter.

Chaplain This year we were very fortunate to have Fr Michael McMahon as our full-time Junior School Chaplain.

Father Michael has a wonderful rapport with the students and staff and we are extremely grateful for the many wonderful liturgies we have shared this year.

We thank him for all his input and hard work with the students and his ability to make everyone feel very special.

Confirmation Once again we had an overwhelming response with parent involvement in the Confirmation Program.

The home program was a great success and parents expressed how beneficial it was for the parents and boys involved. It also provided the parents with the opportunity to get to know each other on a more personal level.

The Confirmation Retreat was held at Camp Kelly and was a great opportunity for the students to reflect on the importance of the Sacrament and on all the preparation that had gone on beforehand.

Special thanks to Father Michael McMahon who attended both Year 7 Retreats and for the very special Masses that we celebrate each year. We were also very fortunate to have Father Michael as our main celebrant at the Confirmation Mass.

Mr Tony Maxfield and Mr Gavin Bell did a superb job preparing the boys to receive the Sacrament and running the retreat at Camp Kelly.

We are also grateful to the many parents who attended both retreats helping with the preparation of meals, attending some of the sessions and ferrying boys to and from the river for the team building activities, as well as those parents who did a fantastic job preparing the Chapel with banners, posters and beautiful flowers making it very special. It certainly set the ambience for a very meaningful celebration.

Junior Faith Education Junior School

First Holy Communion Our First Holy Communion took place on the 18th August 2006. Parent helpers did a wonderful job preparing the Chapel which helped to make our celebration extra special.

The program 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. 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.

Mr Gordon Dean

Mothers’ Day Our Mothers’ Day was extra special this year because a few mums shared the homily at Mass. Here are a few excerpts from their homilies.

I consider myself to be a very lucky person because on Sunday, Mothers’ Day, I will be celebrating not only as the mother of three healthy wonderful children but as the daughter of my mother, my dearest best friend.

What is Motherhood?

We have our children under our roofs for such a short time. There is only a small window when we have complete interaction with them. I find that it is important to continually reassess my relationship with my children.

They grow up before our very eyes, and they constantly surprise me as they develop - develop opinions, likes, dislikes, talents and flaws.

Finding a happy balance is not easy! Society and life are so fast and so busy. Providing the best for our children is not always easy; it’s a constant juggling act – juggling to determine exactly how many extra curricula activities is the right balance and how to spend individual time with all our children and still have time for our partners.

I believe that the greatest gift God can give a woman is the gift of motherhood. It is a challenging but extremely rewarding role. I am sure boys, that nearly every day either you, or if you have a brother or sister, one of you throws out some form of challenge to your mum. It could be verbal or physical and deserves a growl, but no matter what you may have said or done when your mum tucks you into bed and kisses you goodnight the day’s challenges are left behind because a mother loves her children unconditionally.

That means that we love you no matter what you may have said or done during the day.

As I have heard so often, “They don’t come with an instruction manual” and even if they had – dads wouldn’t read it.

I consider myself to be very blessed and every single night when I get into my bed I close my eyes and thank God for the three wonderful gifts he has given me, my children, because I love being a mother – I love every single minute of every single day and could not think of a more rewarding role in life.

We should enjoy them while we’ve got them.

Parenting and motherhood is all about priorities.

“A hundred years from now it will not matter what our bank account was, the sort of house we lived in, or the kind of car we drove......... but the world may be different because we were important in the life of a child.”

To have a child is to know unconditional love.

Junior Library Junior Library

T

he Trinity Junior Library is a fantastic place where you can go and relax in the peace and calm that naturally hangs over it. It is run by the lovely and caring Mrs Janine Wyatt. Our library is home to thousands of books that cover anything a boy could dream of. We have fiction books on fantasy, action, everyday life, horror and much more. The non-fiction area has books on animals, science, cars, sports, myths and legends and lots of other subjects of interest. Whoever gets to sit and read in Mrs Wyatt’s comfortable reading chair is the envy of everyone else.

Our pin-up boards have pictures and information on different topics such as Animals, Soccer World Cup, Water, Land and many more. During the Soccer World Cup we had a poetry competition and many boys produced wonderful poems on the soccer theme.

Mrs Wyatt always has time for a kind smile with her magical voice that takes us into the land of our imagination – we look forward to her reading sessions before each library class.

The Chess sets provide much enjoyment for the boys before school, at lunchtime and in the afternoons while they wait for their parents to pick them up. We entered four teams into the Interschool Chess Competition this year. All teams did well and our A Team made the final but were beaten by Midland Christian School. Our big Term Four Chess Knockout produced some lively games as all the boys were very keen to win the coveted trophies.

enjoyed listening to him speak humorously about his books and his family and answer the many questions members of the audience asked him. One of our boys won a free book for asking the best question.

I think that our library is a great place for any boy to go and have a very enjoyable experience.

In Terms Two and Three many of us participated in the Ian Thorpe “Fountain of Youth” Readers’ Challenge and read ten books by a specified date. We raised over $700 to be used to buy books for children in remote Aboriginal communities. A very worthy project!

Book Week this year had the theme “Book Now”. We had a Quiz that required many of us to read a great range of books to provide the answers. Our four major winners went with Mrs Wyatt to the bookshop to choose a book and “do lunch” in Queens Gardens.

A group of about thirty boys also went to see the very popular English author, Anthony Horowitz. We all

Junior Music Junior Music

S

ince arriving at Trinity College in Term Three, I have been impressed by the commitment and enthusiasm shown by the boys in their pursuit of musical activities.

Music education is highly valued at Trinity College with an emphasis on participation, performance, the pursuit of excellence and achievement of goals. It is pleasing to see a high percentage of boys continue in the Instrumental Program in Year 5 after being exposed to a year of violin/cello tuition in Year 4.

The three choirs: 4/5, 6/7 and select 4-7 choir ‘Get a Grip’ have responded well to varying performance challenges at school and adapted to the teaching style of a new music teacher and choral director. Boys in these ensembles and the Elastic Band instrumental ensemble performed favourably at the Catholic Schools Performing Arts Festival in Term Three, with the senior choirs gaining honourable mentions. A large number of boys also entered as solo or ensemble instrumental players receiving numerous honourable mentions and certificates of merit.

Performance highlights at the College involving the Junior School include the annual String Olympics, the first semester Music Concert Night, the annual Concert and Presentation Evening and informal musical performances at assemblies. The Concert and Presentation Evening allows all boys to be involved in the presentation of an exciting musical event.

Preparation of Christmas repertoire this year has

102

allowed both the special Get a Grip Choir and the band to perform for community groups, with the choir visiting patients at St John of God Hospital, Murdoch and the band playing carols at the Concert and Presentation Evening.

In Term Four, Senior School musicians performed a concert for the Junior School with performances by the 8/9 chorale, 8/9 concert band and the string band.

This was an excellent opportunity for the boys to be inspired to continue their music studies in the Senior School. The Musica Viva visit was also a highlight in Term Three.

Classroom music lessons focus on consolidating music skills and knowledge, providing opportunities to be creative with music composition, engaging in singing and percussion activities and developing a critical awareness and appreciation of the arts in society.

I enjoy the challenge of teaching music at Trinity College and appreciate the positive commitment and energy given to musical pursuits.

Junior Performing Arts Junior Dance

What a BIG year!

The Boys in Groove (BIG) Trinity Junior School dance group can be once again proud of having completed another fun and stimulating year!

Ms Ruth Bott Performing Arts Coordinator

150 boys were auditioned and 47 were chosen. I was one of those lucky boys!

Even though most of the boys couldn’t do handstands or cartwheels or many other types of break dance moves, Ms Bott chose boys for their sense of rhythm, enthusiasm and creativity. It is certainly a challenging task for her to put the boys together and choreograph an original and complicated dance but it always seems to come together on the night of the performance.

The theme for this year’s BIG ensemble was An exploration of the kinaesthetic nature of a motor. Ms Bott thought that the repetition and mechanical movements of a motor, such as rotation, up and down actions and vibration would work beautifully in creative dance. And so would the pathways and systems often found in production lines. Brrmmm!

Like every major dance production, we had a great range of props to work with. Two remote control cars whizzed around the stage at the start of the performance! We used red laced shoes to create a figure 8 outline suggesting a race track. The ‘Human Machine’ came alive with groups moving in time like bicycles whilst other boys used sticks and slinkies in a repetitive, mechanical fashion. The colours and designs looked amazing as forty seven boys danced in silver overalls and red T-shirts with faces painted. I don’t know how Ms Bott is able to get nearly fifty boys to perform so well together!

And so to our first performance, BIG – Work in Progress, which was held at the Trinity Middle School Music Night in front of an eager crowd of parents and friends. They thought it was fantastic and we had a heap of fun!

106

On 9 August, we were ready for our biggest performance of the year at the Catholic Performing Arts Festival in the Burswood Theatre. The boys got to school for an 8:00am dress rehearsal, then attended school for the day and performed in the evening.

Now that’s what I call a BIG day! Our performance of Motor drew massive applause from the large crowd and we even got an Honourable Mention! I was so excited I found it hard to get to sleep that night.

On 14 November, BIG performed at the ACHPER Festival held at the Octagon Theatre in the grounds of The University of Western Australia. Even though we hadn’t performed very much since the Catholic Performing Arts Festival (CPAF), I reckon we did pretty well!

During the break following the CPAF, Ms Bott gave sixty other boys a chance to work on their own choreography. These boys, known as BIG 2, selected their own music and created routines in groups. Each dance was performed at the very entertaining ‘BIG2 Choreographic Afternoon’ on 15 November.

Our final performance for the year was at the annual Junior School Concert and Presentation Evening on 4 December. Once again we were spectacular, with forty seven boys managing to dance on a stage half the size of Burswood, for which our dance was devised.

Of course BIG couldn’t perform without all the help from our generous parents and teachers. There are many parents to thank, in particular Carolyn Orr, Tracey Pope, Sandra Ryan and Vienna Winton for their help in creating the costumes.

Finally, on behalf of the boys I would like to say a BIG thank you to Ms Bott for bringing such creative and stimulating dance to the Performing Arts at Trinity Junior School.

Even though I’ll be moving into Year 8 next year, I can’t wait to see the next, fantastic performance that Ms Bott has planned for the lucky Boys in Groove!

Junior Athletics House Athletics Carnival On a warm and sunny day in September the Junior School students were primed and ready to compete in the 2006 House Athletics Carnival. The boys behaved very well displaying a great deal of sportsmanship and initiative on the day. Many parents assisted with morning and afternoon teas, acted as officials and assisted with the cooking and serving of lunch.

Special thanks to the staff and in particular Mr Ryan Chitty for his meticulous planning and organisation of the day. The winning House was Campion followed

The Basketball Season

T

his was a great season for the A Basketball Team.

We started the season in great form with a win over Christchurch and followed up with a win over Wesley.

We continued with strong wins over Guildford and Scotch. Our only loss was to Hale and this set the scene for the Summer Lightning Carnival.

This was a fantastic day where we experienced three solid wins over Guildford, Christchurch and Scotch.

We drew 14 to 14 in an exciting game over Aquinas.

Our final game against Hale resulted in a 10 to 16 loss. This came about from a last minute push from

108

Hale to score 6 points in the final throes of the game.

This was a great team full of strong competitors who fully supported each other.

There were solid performances from Anthony Biundo, Mark Wong, Louis Iustini and mercurial Jaryd Blakiston.

I would like to thank the team for always doing their best even in a losing situation. Well done boys, you are truly Men for Others.

Junior Football T

he 2006 season was not the best year the Junior School A Team has ever had. Despite this fact we all had fun and learnt a lot under the watchful eye of Coach Mr Gavin Bell. He taught us many things that will help our football in future years.

The season highlight was the Ian McRae Cup where we saw ourselves facing the Aquinas College Team.

We were fortunate enough to host the game at Trinity’s own Mann Oval, where the two teams’ supporter groups gathered to cheer us on. It was a tight game

until the latter end of the third quarter where Aquinas kicked a few quick goals, taking the lead. In the fourth quarter despite a desperate late surge from the fellas, Aquinas held on to win the cup.

The massive season ended with the Lightning Carnival where the team capped the season off with a well earned win against Aquinas.

Modcrosse T

his year Trinity and other PSA schools began a competitive Modcrosse competition. Modcrosse is a modified game derived from Lacrosse. Year 6 and 7 boys involved in the inaugural team had a fantastic term playing and training in this new and exciting sport.

Our team was blessed with some experienced Lacrosse players. These boys aided me greatly in developing necessary skills and understandings that are required in such a fast paced sport.

The boys demonstrated lots of sportsmanship and great team play. We had a great deal of success in our weekly games and in our Lightning Carnival at Aquinas. More importantly however, all the boys showed a progression in their skill and understanding

of the game. All players increased their skills each week resulting in a very high standard of play.

Mr Blair made a huge contribution to our team and the development of the sport at Trinity. His experienced umpiring and advice, given to both teams, was greatly appreciated and valued. Thank you Mr Blair for your tremendous effort!

Hopefully this successful start to Modcrosse will continue next year and in years to come. It is growing in popularity and some of our boys this year have joined Lacrosse clubs around the metropolitan area.

Thank you boys for your participation and your terrific sportsmanship!

and Hands (Christian service). This is the model that we implement at Trinity College.

THE MISSION OF CAMPUS MINISTRY We, Campus Ministry at Trinity College, as part of the Body of Christ, are called to glorify God in all aspects of our lives.

We are called to create and foster an environment where all can develop an understanding and awareness of and a personal relationship with God, who dwells in and around our neighbour and us.

In this environment we strive to provide opportunities for spiritual growth and the building of community.

Through our worship, prayer, service, study and reflection and even our leisure activities, we reach out to our campus community, the greater Perth community and the world.

Within the Trinity community, we hope to engender a commitment to life-long spiritual growth, to realise the deepening of a love relationship with God and to instil an understanding of the interconnectedness of our human family, a family characterised by mercy and divine justice, by peace, love and joy.

t the beginning of 2006 we faced the challenge of continuing the inspirational work of Br Rob Callen who is now completing further studies in the USA. On a previous extended visit to the States he had observed the key elements of successful faith development in several Mr Leo Murray secondary schools, leading Director of Campus Ministry him to establish at Trinity a thriving model of faith development which encompasses the three aspects of Head (religious education), Heart (the spiritual component: prayer, retreats and liturgy)

We continue to reap the harvest that Br Rob has sown.

For me it is impressive to see the generous response of our students to all aspects of their faith development.

Nineteen senior students volunteered to help in the celebration of whole school and year masses with the distribution of Holy Communion. Twelve Year 12 students sacrificed hours of their time to lead eightytwo of their peers in the Kairos Retreats. Another twelve Year 12 students were inspiring as cadre. They completed intensive training and went on to prepare the sixty six Year 11 peer ministers for their role.

Together they successfully guided the Quest Retreat 2006 through which our Year 8 students were welcomed in a very special way to the spirit of Trinity and the challenge of being a ‘Man for Others’.

Students and staff have participated enthusiastically in our other retreats. The Year 9s were boated across the river to walk with Jesus by the shores of Galilee, where some had to seek shelter from the storm. Year 10s reflected in hope with the risen Jesus in their Emmaus retreat, discovering through personal reflection the presence of God in their lives. In the Encounter Retreat, Year 11s pondered what they had learnt about themselves, others and God through their experience of helping those less fortunate during their week of Christian Service at the end of Term 1. All Year 12s took time out of their busy schedule to participate in the Tabgha Retreat. In July the nine India pilgrims made a special three day retreat in preparation for their extended pilgrimage.

In September, I was particularly impressed by Adam Russo, Janek O’Toole, Daniel Pignatiello and Gianni di Giovanni; four students from the Class of 2005 who led a new venture when they were part of the team who worked with Mrs Marya Stewart and me to present the Kairos Retreat to a group of male and female students from St Norbert’s. It was truly inspiring to see young people that I had met as Year 5s, standing confidently to give witness to their faith before an audience of strangers who became their friends during the four days of the retreat.

At all Year levels, students are very happy to volunteer to participate in liturgies in Music Ministry, altar serving, proclaiming the Word as lectors or welcoming and helping as ushers.

It is exciting to participate with young people as they discover and celebrate God present in their lives. All that we do, we do In Nomine Domini, in the name of the Lord.

Pilgrimage through India The India Immersion 2006 Nine Trinity students set out for India. Just when all of their friends and families were beginning their long summer vacation with Christmas and long lazy days uppermost in their minds, these nine Year 11 boys, accompanied by three teachers, were making their way to India on Trinity’s eighth biennial Pilgrimage through India.

Back in August 2005, Brother Rob Callen issued an invitation and challenge to every boy in Year 10 to volunteer for the next pilgrimage through India – Christmas 2006 – an opportunity to spend five weeks in various parts of India serving the poor, as well as visiting some of the different projects run by the Christian Brothers and supported by Trinity’s fundraising efforts such as Project Compassion, Fun Run for India and Un-Fair Day. Of the twenty five boys who applied, nine were eventually accepted and they committed to the weekly Friday planning and preparation meetings over the next sixteen months.

During 2006 Mrs Marya Stewart, Director of Christian Service and Mr Leo Murray conducted the weekly preparation meetings. Former Indian pilgrims helped out and Brother Rob, now living in the U.S.A., kept in

touch through emails. Br Rob returned to Perth in July to spend some time meeting with the boys and their parents and he conducted a Pilgrimage Retreat at North Beach with the group. The pilgrims and their families celebrated a Winter Christmas together in July, knowing that the boys would be a long way from home on December 25th.

Campus Ministry

Finally December 2nd arrived and the boys with their families and friends attended a Farewell Mass of Commissioning in the Trinity Chapel. During the Mass former Indian Pilgrims (now Trinity Old Boys) came forward and placed their hands on the shoulders of the new pilgrims as they received their Mission crosses. This was their commissioning to go forward to carry on the sacred work (mission) of serving and embracing the people of India.

The next day at Perth International Airport when the pilgrims were called to board their plane, there were many different emotions felt by parents and sons as they said their goodbyes. But despite the sadness and apprehension, there was excitement and pride as Trinity’s twelve new pilgrims stood together for their group photograph, then turned and headed for India to offer themselves to those most in need.

Year 12 Kairos Campus Ministry

Kairos History The Kairos retreat program is based on the "Christian Awakening" program, which was developed in 1965 by the Diocese of Brooklyn, U.S.A. A team of Priests, Brothers, and Lay People under the direction of Fr Douglas L Brown of the Brooklyn Diocese made use of the Cursillo Retreat format, but adapted it for older teenagers. The retreat was immediately successful; within three years it had been adopted in Connecticut, California, Arizona, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Texas, Virginia, Kentucky, and Washington D.C.

124

In 1997 Brother Rob Callen participated in several Kairos Retreats in the U.S.A. and in 2002 he renewed contact with Mr Pat Taylor from Bellarmine Prep, San Jose, California and invited him to bring a team of students to launch the first Kairos Retreat for Trinity College, Perth. In July 2002, two adult leaders, Pat Taylor and Larry Harden, and four student leaders, Geronimo Desumala, Jake Casey, Bob O'Connor and Vinh Tran conducted the first Kairos retreat in Western Australia at Moore River.

Year Twelve Tabgha Retreat Campus Ministry

If we bring to Christ our meagre gifts and talents, Christ is faithful to multiply them to meet any need we face.

E

ach of the Year 12 Pastoral Care Groups has now participated in the Tabgha Retreat. The theme of the Tabgha Retreat is transformation. As our young men stand on the threshold of young adult life, they are encouraged to formulate a personal answer to the question that Jesus asks: But who do you say I am?

126

Where does the name TABGHA come from?

During the retreat students had an opportunity to identify their own unique gifts given to them by God. They were able to express themselves in a variety of creative ways, using balloons, pipe cleaners and beads. Apart from the fun, these exercises enabled the boys to take some time to think about themselves, their lives and their faith. They then had an opportunity to share their stories with their peers.

Tabgha is the traditional site of the Multiplication of the Loaves and the Fishes and is situated near the northeastern shore of the Sea of Galilee, 2.5 kilometres south of Capernaum, and some 12 kms north of Tiberius. The name Tabgha is an Arabic contraction of the Greek Heptapegon (the place of the seven springs). Several springs still flow in this area, which is also associated with the teaching of the Beatitudes and the confirmation of the primacy of Peter.

The fish symbol was used extensively during the retreat because the story of the multiplication of the loaves and fish is at the heart of Tabgha. Fish play a major role in the gospels and it became the symbol for Christianity in the early church. This Retreat, the last retreat for many, challenged each boy to think about the road ahead and encouraged them to become a modern day disciple; to put their trust in God’s promise to be with them to the end of time.

Year Eleven Encounter Retreat Campus Ministry

My heart has said of you, ‘Seek his face'.

Yahweh, I do seek your face; Do not hide your face from me.

Psalm 27:8 The ENCOUNTER Retreat is an essential component of the Year 11 Christian Service program. It is the reflection element where students are given an extended period of quality time to reflect on their four full days of service.

Students have an opportunity to share their experiences in a variety of settings and to make decisions about future commitment.

Year Ten Emmaus Retreat Campus Ministry

Year Nine Galilee Retreat Campus Ministry

T

he GALILEE Retreat is a one day off campus Retreat. It is a meditation on the life, ministry and message of Jesus in Galilee.

It is a practical experience in which students walk around the lake in the footsteps of Jesus and imagine themselves in several scenes from Jesus' life in Galilee.

Students are encouraged to connect these incidents and teachings with their own lives.

Background The Jordan River, which begins at an underground spring near the ancient city of Dan, flows southward into the Sea of Galilee. This sea, which is really a lake, is set like a great bowl among the high mountains that surround it. The sea itself sits some seven hundred feet below sea level, so any trip to the shore is always a trip downward.

It was here, along the shores of the Sea of Galilee, that the ministry of Jesus was accomplished. It was here that He fed the five thousand with the five little loaves and two little fish. It was here that He healed the demon possessed man by driving the demons into a herd of pigs that were then drowned in the Sea. Also it was here that Jesus walked upon the waters to His disciples who were in the midst of a frightening storm.

The ministry of Jesus started and ended with one person in particular. That man's name was Peter. It was while walking along the shores of the Sea, observing the various fishing boats and their crews hard at work mending the nets, that Jesus issued His invitation to Peter to come and join Him in becoming a fisher of men. The Bible records the fact that Peter and his brother Andrew left their nets and followed Him (Mark 1:16-18).

A lot happened to Peter beside the Sea. You might remember that it was Peter who attempted to walk on the water towards Jesus on that night of the storm. It was Peter who, when fishing, caught a fish with a coin in its mouth, just as Jesus had said. It was Peter who protested loudest when Jesus washed his feet.

And, the final event of Jesus' ministry here on earth occurred along the shores of this beautiful Sea. After His resurrection, the disciples had gone back to Galilee and had resumed their careers in fishing. But then, Jesus appeared and excitement filled their hearts – well, all but one – that of Peter. While the others ate breakfast with Him, John records that Peter was off counting the dead fish. Jesus came to him and asked him three times if Peter loved Him. This was, if you will, Peter's commissioning service (John 21:15-17).

As we walk along the shores of the Sea, these stories suddenly come alive. The Sea and its surrounding hillside had not changed much since the time of Jesus.

If one is silent, one can almost hear His footsteps there along the shore.

The GALILEE Retreat is a one-day meditation on the life, ministry and message of Jesus in Galilee. Unlike a day of recollection at a retreat centre, the GALILEE Retreat is a practical experience and makes good use of our imaginations.

Retreat Goals 1. To offer retreatants the GALILEE experience of being called.

2. To give retreatants the opportunity to reflect on their knowledge, love and acceptance of self.

3. To allow retreatants to recognise the Christ-like people in their lives.

4. To allow the boys to reflect on the call of Christ to serve Him by serving others.

Christian Service Christian Service

C

Mrs Marya Stewart Director of Christian Service

hristian Service at Trinity College has an impact on the life of every student at the College. There are opportunities to serve others through many different aspects of College life and so many of our students volunteer with generous and open hearts. It is the defining characteristic of a “Trinity man” – to put others first.

On almost any day of the school year you will find students doing things to serve others, whether it is helping out with a school event, taking time to assist a fellow student or engaging in a more formal aspect of the Christian Service program offered at the College.

The school year officially ended for our senior students in week six of Term Four but since then many of them have been involved in programs leading or preparing for Retreats which will be held in 2007. Early in December 2006 nine boys will be accompanied by Mr Leo Murray, Mr Michael Slack-Smith and Br Rob Callen for a five week pilgrimage to India where they will immerse themselves in the world of the poorest and most disadvantaged people. There will be a farewell Mass, a gathering of students, parents, teachers, friends and past pilgrims whose love and prayers will sustain and nurture their experience.

Christian Service is not just about doing things. It is primarily about developing relationships which respect the dignity and worth of every person and recognising Christ in them and ourselves through this. The formal Christian Service program aims to help students reflect on all their experiences in the light of the gospel values which we are called to live out as members of the Christian community.

Our Neighbour It begins in Year 8 with the Quest Retreat where every student participates in a canned food drive for St Vincent de Paul. As Patrick Philpott said in his journal “I learnt that many people are willing to give if they know where the food is going and I learnt that you get a great reward from serving your neighbour”.

132

Every Year 8 student is required to do fifteen hours of Christian service in the communities where they live, for their families, in their local neighbourhoods and parishes or in their school. Some students commit to caring for elderly neighbours and Michael Hart wrote in his journal about his experience – “when I delivered the groceries for my elderly Italian neighbour, she had a huge smile on her face and I realised that I didn’t need to be shy. I helped someone do something they had trouble with and I know Jesus would enjoy seeing a smile on an elderly lady’s face too”.

Restoring Relationships Year 9 students were involved with a variety of projects focusing on building healing and restorative relationships with God’s creation in its many forms.

Working on environmental projects at Cityfarm and the Christian Centre for Social Action raised students’ awareness about how people can live in harmony with the natural world. Rory Pilgrim commented that his experience at Cityfarm taught him that some people have a very different understanding of the connection between the environment and us and that these people don’t see money as the most important facet of their lives. Students who participated in the Breakfast Club at Embleton and Tranby Primary Schools discovered how simple things in life, like a morning meal and a safe and welcoming place, are so important to young children. Dylan Caddy said that he learnt that no matter what school or heritage people come from they deserve a good chance in life.

Michael Kirk’s comment was I have learnt not to take what I have and what I can get, for granted; that I am lucky to be born into my family. Tom Lillywhite’s reflection was “I learnt about a new part of me which was waiting for the best time to come out. This was rewarding as I now respect myself more as a caring person. James Hunt summed up the effect of the experience on him – from here on in I am going to attempt to be a more generous and giving person.

Outfitting teddy bears in Trinity colours was a challenge for many students who took it on, but the thought of who these bears would go to was enough to inspire them to keep trying. Andrew Phillips felt that the most enjoyable part of the experience was participating in an activity with his friends, and feeling proud that he was helping someone in the community.

A special thank you to Mrs Patsy Colan who so generously assisted with the “Bears With a Mission” Project and to Ms Kellie Carnaby who helped at Tranby Primary Breakfast Club.

Sharing Gifts Four days in an unfamiliar environment working with people who you have never even contemplated having contact with before, can be quite a daunting experience. It can be very difficult to communicate with people whose abilities are limited because of age or mental or physical impairment. It is even more difficult if these people are not appealing physically.

Many of the Year 11 students who participate in the Christian Service Program in the final week of Term One have to cope with these challenges.

Overwhelmingly their response is positive and sensitive to the needs of the people they are working with.

Whether it is a small child struggling to understand a simple concept at school, or an elderly person having difficulty making sense of the environment in which they live, our students respond with generous hearts and open hands. They are rewarded with the gratitude of those they serve and by the awakening knowledge

Christian Service of the goodness inside themselves which enables them to respond with compassion. What better way to prepare for Easter than to come to understand that through connection with people in need, we come to know Christ.

Senior Project The Senior Project requires real commitment because it is during the student’s holidays and weekends that they are involved in serving others. This program requires that they complete forty hours at an agency of their own choice. When students are presented with awards for this project at the Christian Service Assembly in Term Two, it is always amazing that some have completed more than 100 hours and receive full colours for their efforts. In 2006, Brent McIntyre gave 240 hours to the agencies where he completed his Senior Project. Joseph Giorgio, Jamie Gotti, Daniel Griffin, Matthew Ferrinda, Wayd Blakiston and James Lewis also received full colours. Students participating in the Senior Project assisted in Special Education Centres, Aged Care Homes, Red Cross Soup Patrol, primary schools and centres for people with special needs. They took part in reflection group meetings where they discussed their experiences and completed a daily journal about their project. Through these tasks, students find that doing things for others becomes even more meaningful when you come to care beyond your immediate contact with them. This awareness leads students to ask questions about how society cares for its least significant members.

Edmund Rice Outreach Group

Christian Service

To be a follower of Edmund Rice is to take every opportunity to put the gifts and talents that each of us possess to use in serving others. A group of dedicated students from Years 9 -12 try to live out this challenge by involving themselves in a range of activities which help others. This year the group was very ably led by Jamie Gotti, Matthew Ferrinda, James Lewis and Daniel Griffin. They helped promote and coordinated the collection of money for the Caritas Project Compassion Appeal, the collection of food items for the St Vincent de Paul Winter Appeal, and organised activities for the Fun Run for India and Unfair Day. A highlight for the year was their organisation of teachers to be sponsored to wear fancy dress for the Fun Run. Some members of the group were involved in a presentation for the Stations of the Cross in Northbridge on Good Friday. The group has a weekly commitment to the Red Cross Soup Patrol generously assisted by staff members Mr Leo Murray, Mrs Janine Wyatt and Mrs Lissa Coleman. Feeding the homeless and destitute on the streets of Fremantle or Perth is always an enlightening and rewarding experience and the students are often challenged to respond to difficult circumstances. Their response is remarkably thoughtful and caring, reflecting judgment well beyond their years. Much of the work of this group goes unnoticed within the school community but they contribute much to the continuing spirit of Edmund Rice.

Art plays an important role in shaping our understanding of Ms Rita Basilio the world in which we live.

Art Coordinator This year our art students have continued to explore, express and communicate ideas, feelings and experiences in their artwork through the use of drawing, painting, print-making, ceramics and a range of other media in a variety of styles.

A Riot of Colour enveloped Gibney Hall in Term Three, when Trinity College hosted the Junior Schools Heads Association of Australia Art Exhibition, which featured artworks produced by students from thirty primary schools. We were very excited that artwork produced

by Trinity student Peter Perry (5B) was selected to be featured on the poster advertising the Exhibition.

Rita Basilio and John Lamborn at “A Riot of Colour”

This exhibition became part of our Art Week, a new initiative developed by the art department to help celebrate and promote the Visual Arts at the College.

During Art Week students participated in a number of activities including an art quiz within their pastoral care groups and an art competition. Guest speakers included artist Zoë Watson and university lecturer/art historian Carl Altman. Art Week proved to be a very successful venture. This year the art and music departments also joined forces to provide a night of pleasant viewing and entertainment during Senior Arts Night.

Our Student Art Exhibition was once again a success this year with a number of awards being presented to students including our major award, the Signum Fidei Art Award. This award is sponsored by Trinity Old Boy Patrick Coward and aims to encourage our art students in their artistic pursuits at the College and beyond. This year the Signum Fidei Award was judged by artist Leon Pericles and art historian/lecturer Mr Carl Altman. Congratulations to Perry Joyce (Year 12) who was the recipient of this award for his oil on board painting Ms Joyce. Congratulations also to Brendan Harwood (Year 12) who received the runners- up prize and Liam Dee for winning the Year 11 prize. Liam Dee also won the Peoples’ Choice Art Award. The Adelphe King Prize for Drawing was won by Year 10 student Alexander Malkovich. This prize is sponsored by Mrs Adelphe King who is a previous art teacher of the College and an advocate of the arts.

Thank you to our sponsors who have continued to support Trinity students in their artistic endeavours.

Congratulations to the art students this year for their enthusiasm and their achievements in art.

Performing Arts GIG (Guys In Groove) This year has proven to be our busiest, most productive and largest cast in GIG. Each term has been significantly eventful, beginning in Term One with break dance workshops Ms Ruth Bott presented by Richard Seidal.

Performing Arts Coordinator These workshops assisted in establishing the members of Guys In Groove, a team of what was soon to be eighteen boys with various skills coming from Years 8 to 12.

The first performance was at a whole school assembly where the boys demonstrated their new break dance moves with assistance from Richard Seidal. Rather than play recorded music for the performance, a live band supported our dancers. This band happened to be our very own Trinity Swing Band conducted by the enigmatic Mr Kevin Fenner. The boys danced to the funky sounds of Brick House and Theme to Shaft. This act was just a warm up for the Senior Music Night, where GIG and the Swing Band performed again for guests in Gibney Hall on 30th June.

The following weeks would find the boys and myself busy preparing for our item in the Catholic Performing Arts Festival. Concepts to be devised, steps to be choreographed and rehearsed, props and costumes to be gathered and created. And so Project Kick was born, a dance work that saw boys contesting football and soccer with claims of superiority. With footballers as Lords of the dance, this piece was a huge success, and our applause at the Burswood Theatre on August 9th was second to none. This dance gave boys such as Jarrhan Jacky and Aaron Jenkins the opportunity to shine. The boys were deserving of their Honourable Mention. Thank you to Lois Jenkins for sewing the sensational sporty costumes.

What resulted from five workshops was a contemporary multi – layered work that explored the properties of elastic, with bodies adopting flexibility, resilience and rebound. The twenty one dancers first performed Snap at the Perth College assembly prior to the showcase.

All the students embrace this annual collaboration, and it is never difficult recruiting boys!

Performing Arts

The Trinity College Speech Night was held at the Concert Hall on October 22nd, and GIG performed as part of the program. Dancing in front of your peers can be a challenge, but the members of GIG mustered all their energy and skill once again. Project Kick was a hit, with head boy Desmond Yeo drawing noisy cheers from the audience as he took centre stage with his gymnastic flips and flairs.

Just when we thought the dance season had finished, the Trinity senior dancers opened the West Australian Institute of Fashion and Textiles Parade held at Winthrop Hall UWA on the 21st November. For this gala occasion, twenty-one Trinity boys were asked to represent twenty-one designers, appearing on the 30 metre catwalk manipulating puppets dressed in miniature versions of the artists' gowns. Our boys looked sensational dressed as blind folded ninjas.

Jarrhan Jacky astounded all as he imitated the isolated movement of the puppets in his solo. It was a night to remember, especially for the Trinity dancers as they mingled with forty professional models. This was an industry – based artistic event, and it was a privilege for Trinity College and myself to be asked exclusively to work at this showcase.

Incredible opportunities for a talented group of dancers, and a director who couldn’t ask for a better GIG. Ms Ruth Bott Performing Arts Coordinator

The day following the Burswood performance was the dance excursion to Step Youth Dance Company’s production KISSXX at the Subiaco Theatre Centre. This year’s show was particularly exciting as Brendan Harwood and Aaron Jenkins, both members of GIG, played a significant role. The concept, choreography, set (made by Brendan’s father), music and costumes were innovative and engaging.

Snap, a dance performed by members of GIG in collaboration with the Perth College Year 11 and 12 students, was created by Jane Neville and myself to be performed at the Perth College Showcase on Friday 15th September.

and went on to represent WA in the National finals in Canberra. Also to Eric Bin Sali (Year 10) and Ryan Balmer (Year 11) who were both Highly Commended for their furniture projects in the Woodwork Association Awards.

This year we entered students in four state wide competitions:- The Western Power Solar Model Car Challenge, The Fine Woodwork Association of WA Out of the Woods Exhibition, The CO2 Model Dragster State Championships and Institute of Engineers Science and Engineering Challenge. While we achieved some excellent results in these competitions a special mention must go to Seve Pratico (Year 9) whose car won the CO2 Dragster State Championships

At the end of this year we are unfortunately losing one of our dedicated teachers, Mr Toby Trewin, our Graphics expert, who has given his students excellent tuition in 3D Graphics software for the past three years. We also farewell Mr John Broadhead, who is off on a year’s leave in 2007.

n 2006 education received seemingly unprecedented press coverage in Western Australia as the debate fuelled over the merits of Outcomes Based Education and the worth of the New Courses of Study. It is in this period of considerable flux that I must acknowledge the Mr Anthony Burne manner in which the English Head of English and LOTE staff, and indeed the whole Trinity staff, has continued to deliver quality education in such ‘interesting’ educational times.

in particular to the two Year 8 teams who won their respective debating divisions, with the team of Adrian Maydwell, Luke Screaigh, Joseph Di Nardo and Matthew Rechichi reaching the last four before being beaten by the eventual state winners. Mr Tim Redden, as Debating Coordinator, this year has generated considerable enthusiasm in the Western Australian Debating League competition. Mr Gerard Rosario also continues to represent Trinity College in the Rotary Four Way Speech competition with distinction, winning the East Perth division and then progressing through the next heat, where he will compete in the State Final in February 2007.

New Courses of Study in 2006 replaced the traditional Year 11 English, Senior English and Vocational English subjects. Considerable time was spent in late 2005 and early 2006 by staff in developing innovative and engaging courses, while ensuring the basics were not forgotten. In 2007 many of these students will sit an examination quite different to the previous TEE English examinations, a challenge for both staff and students alike.

On a sadder note we farewell two valued members our department this year. Mr Charlie Liggins, who in his tenure at the College has taught Speech and Drama, Media and English, will be sorely missed; while the long serving Mr Robert Armitage will move to Kolbe College in order to be closer to his new coastal abode. Mr Armitage has given great service over his fifteen years as a teacher, Year coordinator and colleague. We wish them both well in their new positions.

It was also a busy year in terms of debating, public speaking and a host of other activities. Congratulations

Education Support

(Alfred North Whitehead)

T

here has certainly been a lot of change in the Education Support Department this year. First of all, at the end of Semester Mrs Marie Zwart One, Mrs Sue Prior went on Director of Education Support extended leave to move to Bangkok to experience working in a British International School. Sue was instrumental in setting up the Mary Rice Centre at Trinity and we look forward to seeing her again and hearing of her exciting experiences when she returns in 2008.

With Sue’s departure came more changes. Mrs Marie Zwart was appointed Director for the duration of Sue’s absence and Mr Brendan Chapman bravely stepped into the shoes of Senior Enterprise Coordinator in Semester Two, and performed magnificently. Next year Mr Peter Duckett will take on this challenging role.

Responding to, and somewhat energised by these changes the staff of Mary Rice have continued to uphold the Edmund Rice tradition and to “lead from the centre”.

At Trinity College, the Education Support team provides a whole of school service. We support Trinity students and teachers from Years 4 to 12 in striving for equity in opportunity and excellence in educational outcomes.

We identify actual and potential barriers to individual achievement and tackle these through a suitably planned, targeted approach. This might require developing better means of access to the curriculum, or differentiating its content and delivery to make it more appropriate for the individual’s circumstances.

similar issues, so now our aim is to work as one ‘entity’ – to develop effective strategies and support services for all students and staff at Trinity College.

In Term Four a topic emerged from CLADS that was taken by members for broad discussion across the Departments: the need for and viability of a Gifted and Talented Academic Program at Trinity College.

This attracted an enthusiastic response and has encouraged much debate and individual research. In 2007 we will be trialling several research-based strategies and using these experiences to inform our view on the best way forward on this proposal. I see this emerging initiative as an exciting development in our mission of effectively addressing the needs of ALL students. So stay tuned!

On a personal note, I would like to thank all the people who have supported me in my new role of Director of Education Support. I am indebted to Mrs Gerri Vanpraag and Mrs Karen Tyler (Education Support Assistants extraordinaire) for making the transition as smooth as possible. Also, thanks to the inaugural members of CLADS and to Mr Brendan Chapman for their unerring guidance, support and humour. I look forward to working with you all again in 2007 – it’s sure to be a great year for the wonderful team that is Collaborative Learning and Development Services.

And remember: Good schools, like good societies and good families, celebrate and cherish diversity. (Deborah Meier) Mrs Marie Zwart Director of Education Support

The range of strategies we use encompasses identification of individual learning needs; providing options for extension and enrichment; collaborative planning and support for teachers; individual education plans; and individual case management.

Key players in providing this valuable service to the Trinity community extend beyond the Ed Support team to include the School Psychologist, our Aboriginal Liaison Officer and Aboriginal Liaison Assistant and the School Chaplain. Late this year, to bring this network of support for academic and pastoral care on to a more structured footing, we agreed to form a collaborative working group for academic and pastoral care issues. Much time and energy was spent debating our purpose and a suitable title. As “Miscellaneous Workers” is already taken we have decided to name ourselves Collaborative Learning and Development Services (CLADS). We’ve come together because we work with the same boys and on

he main focus for the ICT department has been the implementation of technology based Learning Centres.

The English, Society and Environment and Mathematics Learning Areas now have access to classrooms with over thirty computers in them.

Teachers in these Learning Mr William Quartermaine Areas take advantage of Director of Information Technology technology to complement their curriculum programs. It is pleasing to see that teachers are being very creative when using computer technology to motivate and enhance their students learning experience.

Hardware and Software development We have continued the process of upgrading general purpose classrooms with multimedia technology.

Teachers and students now have access to over twenty classrooms that contain data projectors and wireless access points. Teachers use their Notebook computers in these classrooms to connect to the Internet, show DVD’s and use presentation software for delivering lessons.

Our major software focus has been on the continued development of our assessing and reporting software.

We have made changes to reflect outcomes based education and we are looking at models that will

144

provide a more comprehensive statistical analysis of academic and behavioural data.

Curriculum The ICT Learning Area offers courses in Year 11 and 12 (Business Information Technology and Digital Media). These courses provide students with the ICT skills necessary for University, TAFE or work. In Years 8, 9 and 10, ICT skills are integrated into Mathematics, English, Society and Environment and Science. ICT teachers work closely with teachers in these learning areas to use technology to enhance the learning experience.

Staff A special thank you to our teaching staff: Mr Roger Blatchford and Mr Richard Cackett for their professional conduct and their devotion to education and teaching.

Also to Mr Neil Seaman and Mr Warwick Gaff in our IT Support department for the smooth running of the College network.

The Future A major focus for 2007 will be on the development of a new software product for assessment, reporting and statistical analysis. We will also endeavour to increase access for teachers and students to presentation media in the form of projectors, screens, presentation software and audio and video media.

would like to start by thanking Diane Vito for replacing me in the second semester whilst I was away on long service leave.

The Italian department also played host to a practicum student from Notre Dame University – Mr Jean-Marc Rousset Vera Simoes who contributed Italian much to the teaching of Years 8, 9 and 10. Her expertise in technology was invaluable!

Congratulations go to Leigh Dawson, Class of 2005, for being awarded a scholarship to complete his studies at Notre Dame University; he is now pursuing Italian studies at university.

students bought in treats from different regions and shared them with the class. The Year 9 Italian class attended a delicious lunch at La Scala Restaurant.

Year 10 students enjoyed a delicious Italian Dinner at Da Vinci Ristorante thank you very much to Dino and his staff for treating us to a delightful meal.

Three Trinity students departed for Milan, Italy in late November for a two month exchange. During their stay they lived with Italian families and attended an Italian High School. A report on their experiences at Gita Italiana 2006 follows.

The Year 12 class were a delight to teach and I wish them well with their future studies.

Mr Jean-Marc Rousset Italian

Many thanks to Marlisa Gangemi and Father Terry Curtis from All Saints College for taking our Year 11 students, Marc Luca, Rob Santoriello and Sean O’Sullivan to Italy. Students found the experience both enjoyable and very beneficial to their studies.

Students’ Report The Year 8 class concluded with the customary visit from the Befana and the tasting of not only a chocolate Panattone but the flat biscuit like Panettone from the Genoa Region.

The highlight of the Year 9 course were the assignments that they completed on the various regions of Italy.

Where possible, students were encouraged to choose a Region which they could link to either an Italian parent, grandparent or relative. Students obtained much of the information from the internet but they were also asked to chat with relatives about daily life in the relevant Region. The most popular presentation was from the Region of Le Marche and to celebrate

Gita Italiana 2006 For four weeks during the second term holidays, three boys from Trinity College embarked on an exchange program to Italy. Mark Luca, Robby Santoriello and Sean O’Sullivan represented Trinity College on the “Gita Italiana 2006” organised by All Saints College.

The boys were billeted out to a host family where they stayed for half the time, based in Florence. While in Florence they went to a language school and saw many of the tourist sites in Tuscany including the leaning tower of Pisa and a traditional Italian Easter festival. For the other half of the program the group of students lodged in hotels in Rome and Venice. In these locations the boys saw a vast array of tourist attractions, including the Colosseum, the Trevi Fountain, Saint Mark’s Church, and went on a gondola ride.

The boys came back having experienced the true Italian culture, have a better understanding of the language, and are more confident, independent and cultured. The trip was a once in a lifetime experience, which the boys truly embraced and highly recommend.

he Senior School Library continues to be the centre for resources of information, education and recreation.

Students use the library not only during class under the supervision of the teachers, but flock here at other times, especially before school and lunch time.

Our extensive fiction collection which includes graphic novels, audio books and picture books provides a huge supply of recreational reading to encourage boys reading.

There is a huge range of attractive visual non-fiction items to capture the interest of the boys. Students can search for their favourite books on the online library catalogue accessible from any computer connected to the internet (http://students.trinity.wa.edu.au/ webopac/) I take this opportunity to thank my efficient and friendly Library Officers, Jenni Properjohn and Catherine Hamilton. Thanks also to the members of entire staff and administration who have supported me in my seven and a half years at Trinity.

Mrs Rosemary Horton Teacher Librarian

M

y name is Luciana Cavallaro, the new teacher-librarian in the PL Duffy Resource Centre. I took over from Rosemary Horton in Semester Two and it has been a very busy time in the library since my arrival.

We have made a few physical changes – the Ms Luciana Cavallaro Fiction collection is now Teacher Librarian (Semester two) organised into sub-genres – this makes it easier for students and staff to identify and locate novels.

We have also introduced a reading programme for students in Years 8 and 9. This is run with the cooperation and collaboration of the English Department, and classes come to the Library on a fortnightly basis. The introduction of this programme has been very successful with some classes now coming on a weekly basis. We have seen book loans increase due to this programme and the positive outcome is an increase in the number of students reading.

Mercedes College and Trinity College run a joint book club that meets twice a term. We are very fortunate to have Natalie Crawford from Dymocks in Claremont who selects and introduces new books to a small but enthusiastic group of students. The books range from Science Fiction to gentler topics. Our final book club session had a Halloween theme, where students and staff dressed up in costumes.

I look forward to introducing new initiatives into the PL Duffy Resource Centre in 2007.

ith the increasing use of technology in all aspects of modern life, the ability to make critical judgements and solve nonroutine problems becomes an essential skill in making significant contributions to our changing society. A good mathematics education Mr Rom Cirillo provides a useful background Head of Mathematics for students to be able to successfully deal with the challenges of the future. It has been pleasing to see the increased engagement of students of all levels of mathematical ability in doing mathematics during the trial period with the online ‘Mathletics’ program over the last twelve months.

Teachers within the Mathematics Learning Area are looking forward to next year when all students will have access to this program at home.

This year we welcomed Mr Damien Casey to the Mathematics staff. Mr Casey, an Old Boy of the College, joined us having recently returned from overseas teaching appointments, after the late departure in 2005 of Mr Daniel Quartermaine who accepted a teaching appointment in New South Wales.

I wish to commend all the mathematics staff for the hard work and generally positive way that they have all gone about their teaching, providing a quality mathematics education for our boys. Our first year of reporting in outcome levels for Year 10 was not without its challenges. We hope that it has been helpful by providing parents and students with an improved way of deciding on the most appropriate mathematics course for the boys to study in Year 11.

As in previous years, 2006 was a year of pleasing successes for Trinity College boys who participated in state and national competitions. Some of the student participants in the various activities and competitions are listed below:

n 2005 Justin Leong was awarded the TEE music subject exhibition and other Year 12 students also scored very high marks in their TEE music exams. After the success of the 2005 cohort the class of 2006 was going to have to find their own way of making their musical Dr Robert Braham mark. Perry Joyce achieved Director of Music this with a full composition unit, producing a piano concerto, brass quintet, choral work, and vocal duet. Michael Wright also created a first with the submission of a musicological study looking at the musical issues that arise in a multicultural society. Both these splendid projects were of a standard beyond what would be expected of Year 12 students. Perry has also entered his choral composition ‘Botany Bay’ into the Australian Society of Music Education ‘Young Composers Project’ with the hope of having it performed at the ASME National Conference in 2007.

What Perry has achieved at a specialist level now has its roots in the work being done in the younger music classes. Year 11 TEE students focused on fine tuning their melody and accompaniment writing and began arranging classical pieces for quartets. Music in society students wrote original songs and solo instrumental pieces and backing tracks for television commercials. Year 10 Music produced a number of compositions in various twentieth century styles, including minimalism, atonal writing, jazz, programmatic composition, and music for string ensemble.

The string program established in 2004 will move into its third year in 2007. Signs are encouraging for the formation of a Junior string ensemble next year. Mr Todd Gogol’s arrangement of Perpetual Mobile for violins, celli and backing tape was a hint of things to come and the string Olympics gave us all new ways of enthusing about string instrument education.

Zenith Award for performing with excellence and entering into the spirit of the festival.

Special mention must go to the group and solo award winners. Ben Caddy has taken over where Justin Leong left off by attaining the solo instrumental award performing Elgar’s Violin Sonata Opus 82, and Perry Joyce and John Marshall also took over the reigns of the piano award with an arrangement of Holst’s Jupiter from The Planets. In 2005 Perry and John’s older brother Eugene attained the same award. The senior Trinity/Mercedes String Ensemble returned to winning form performing two accomplished works from memory; Brahm’s Hungarian Dance Number Five and the first movement of Bach’s Brandenberg Concerto Number Five. The Chorale took on some challenging repertoire in the form of Daemon Irrepit Callidus and Eugene Butler’s The Last Word of David to be awarded the sacred music trophy and a self-rehearsed Year 12 chamber choir consisting of Desmond Yeo, Leonard Ong and Perry Joyce joined by two senior Mercedes singers were awarded the secondary choral prize in exquisite versions of Stephen Leek’s Morning Tide and Cutty Sark.

Congratulations must also go to the drama entry, the first of its kind in the festival by Trinity boys. One of these items, Who’s on the Wing? was presented with great confidence and large doses of humour at Speech Night.

Congratulations to all participating students. The number of students participating in this festival and the support of all the music tutors has made for a string of very successful years. It is also important that we the musicians recognise the administrative efforts that go into entering large numbers of students into the festival and in particular the work of Mrs Margaret Denniston.

Faith Education T

here have been many articles written over the years about the nature and purpose of Catholic schools and the many counter cultural issues they face in the world of the 21st century. To be authentic Trinity College must stand within the Church reflecting the charism of Mr Gerard Theseira Edmund Rice. At the core Director of Faith Formation of Trinity College sits the Learning Area of Religious Education.

The Church is seen as a community of believers who place themselves in the hands of the God mystery. The faithful are seen as the people of God who seek communion and fellowship sharing gifts and unity. The Religious Education program at Trinity captures the aspects of believers in community with a common God, sharing their personal gifts. The structure of the program is a legitimate concept of developing: knowledge of the Bible, Sacraments, Church documents, morality and active participation in the Church. The students at Trinity College are firstly a gathering, a community of people who seek out and embrace the mysterious actions of God in their lives.

Religious Education is seen as a key curriculum area in Catholic schools and is subject to change as any other Learning Area. This Learning Area has the significant responsibility in the development and delivery of the Religious Education curriculum within Trinity College. The focus at Trinity College has been towards knowledge of faith, the development of skill to express that faith and formation of theological knowledge. The year 2006 has been exciting on many fronts in terms of Religious Education, as the staff work towards developing their faith knowledge and

nurturing their approach to Religious Education.

Outcomes Education in the Learning Area of Religious Education is a challenge for change, particularly in the development of assessment that captures the essential expressions of knowledge in faith. There are many factors which assist change within the Learning Area of Religious Education. The most important is the link between ‘Theory & Practice’. When teachers are able to identify this link it will assist them to share their pedagogical style.

Faith Education

Religious Education teachers have been encouraged to attend the frequent professional development opportunities provided thoroughout 2006. Such professional development experiences help staff members to gain competencies in teaching and learning and develop knowledge in the text based curriculum. Growth in teacher confidence and a willingness to try new teaching and learning approaches in the classroom are the positive aspects of professional leaning experiences. This professional development focus in 2006 has helped members of the Learning Area to grow professionally and personally. Teamwork among the members of the Learning Area is a significant factor in the development of curriculum change at Trinity College. The development of effective professional relationships and the expertise among staff members has been enhanced by the experiences of teamwork.

Opportunities to share creative aspects of pedagogy have resulted in an exploration of a variety of methods of implementing the curriculum. The positive relationship between members happens when they feel that their contribution has been valued and important. Liturgies, Retreats and Christian Service are opportunities that reflect the teamwork of the Religious Education staff.

Science Academic

T

he 2006 academic year started with all the hallmarks of being a difficult and unsettled year for the Science Department.

Ray Priskich, our extremely capable and inspirational leader of fourteen years, had resigned, two new teaching staff had joined us and we Mr Tim Blake were embarking on the Head of Science introduction of outcomes into the Year 10 program as well as the uncertainties of the imminent introduction of the new courses of study.

Fortunately, the professionalism of the science staff came to the fore and the year passed uneventfully as had many previous years We welcomed two new staff to the department. In a time when quality Physics teachers are very hard to find we were very fortunate to acquire the services of Craig Adams to head our senior program. Mark Dodd secured a permanent position after demonstrating his competence and great rapport with the Middle School students.

The first task of the year was a complete revision of the Middle School curriculum from an outcomes perspective. An integrated and seamless set of programs were developed for each outcome ensuring cognitive progress and intellectual challenges were presented in an appropriate manner for each year group. Four Year 10 Science Extension classes were offered with an enhanced focus on Physics and Chemistry to cater for the middle range of student ability and better reflect an outcomes mode of learning. It should be noted, however, that far too many students aspire to study Physics and Chemistry who would be better suited to Biology and Human Biology. The 2005 Biology TEE results were particularly pleasing as Trinity was in the top ten schools for the second time in four years.

Nobody in the whole school will forget the visit by Jet Cars from the Kwinana Motor Complex. Twenty metre flames, deafening roars and pounding shockwaves gave our Year 10 students an awesome display (and all in the name of science as our Physics students benefited from an in-depth look at the physics of the engines).

158

Numerous competitions were held throughout the year. Stephen Dale (Year11) has been invited to Canberra

to attend the Rio Tinto Science Training Camp after coming 18th in the whole of Australia (and second in WA) in the Chemistry competition. He actually qualified for Physics as well but can only attend one camp! Stuart Love (Year 10) had the honour of being presented with a plaque by the RACI for his achievement in Chemistry after coming in the top 0.5% of students worldwide. Well done to both students.

In November, thirty-two Year 9 students participated in the inaugural WA Science and Engineering competition held at the Convention Centre. Groups of four students were given various challenges in such areas as motorised balloon navigation, bridge building and problem solving. Trinity was placed a creditable 12th out of forty schools.

The next few years will pose many profound challenges not only for the science staff but for the whole school as we venture into the new courses of study. We have a cohesive and extremely competent staff that will ensure the best science education for all our students.

“Astronomy is recognised in many countries as providing one of the most effective opportunities for inspiring youth to study physics, chemistry and maths, a valuable preparation for citizens of an increasingly technical society.”

(Prime Minister’s Science, Engineering and Innovation Council. 17th June 2004)

Mr Bill Cooper Observatory Manager

T

his year has seen lots of opportunities for everyone to be involved in astronomy. There were staff astronomy camps and digital astronomy workshops.

Students had the regular camps which this year also included launching video rockets, along with camps at school using the Trinity telescope. Students watched the Mercury transit as it happened.

There were also many evening programs for junior schools.

Trinity College has been successful in obtaining a $60,000 federal grant from the Australian School Innovation in Science, Technology and Mathematics (ASISTM) to develop a remote telescope facility for the wider WA community.

This grant will allow Trinity to provide training and access to the telescope for nine schools in WA. These are Kolbe Catholic College, Irene McCormack College, Newman College, John XXIII College, Nagle College, Clontarf Aboriginal College, Ursula Frayne Catholic College and Peter Moyes Anglican

160

Community School. With ASISTM funding Trinity can develop a remote access facility; that is students from the College will be able to operate the telescope in real time over the internet from home.

Ben Goodsell, our astronomy scholar went to the US Space Camp and was acknowledged by the American organisers to be a fantastic ambassador for Trinity College. Ben has handed his scholar status over to Tom Drage. Tom has wasted no time in establishing a presence in Astronomy at Trinity, by building a Radio Jove radio telescope which now sits on the roof next to the observatory. This will open up a whole new window into the Universe for students. Not only will we be able to image sunspots but we will also be able to record their radio signatures. Students will be able to listen to and record magnetic storms on Jupiter.

We are looking forward to an exciting year of possibilities in 2007.

Mr Bill Cooper Observatory Manager

Society and Environment Academic

T

he study of Society and Environment is primarily concerned with preparing our students to be active participants in ‘the real world’. As such, being involved in this Learning Area is very much a journey which is often as rewarding an experience for staff, as Mr Christopher Allanson it is for students. Promoting Society and Environment awareness about the world around us, helps us to discover the true sense of ourselves.

The year 2006 has been a year of transition with Mr Lucio Cicchini leaving at the end of Term One to take up his new position as Head of Senior School at Ursula Frayne Catholic College. He leaves Trinity having placed this Learning Area in a position of strength. I would like to thank all the staff, students and parents who have made me feel so welcome since undertaking this role in Term Two.

they had $50,000 to develop a successful share portfolio. History students have travelled to the Holocaust Centre where they were moved by a talk from a survivor of the Holocaust and were guided through the institute’s museum. Those students studying Political and Legal Studies were addressed by the Federal Member for Perth and current Trinity College parent Mr Stephen Smith MP, former WA Democrats Senator Mr Jack Evans as well as a member of the Greens WA Party. In the Middle School students visited the Herdsman Lake Discovery Centre to study different ecosystems as well as to gather an appreciation of what life was like for the Nyungar People before European Settlement. Students have also experienced what it was like to be imprisoned in the confines of Fremantle Prison as well as the legal process which has seen many prisoners arrive in custody by visiting the Central Law Courts and the Sir Francis Burt Law Centre. Year 8 students undertook a study of the History of Trinity where two students, Nicholas Greeney and Ben Moffitt, were awarded a prize for their outstanding account of the College’s past.

On curriculum matters, staff have been dealing with the many challenges that have been presented with the new post-compulsory Courses of Study, as well as the ongoing implementation of outcomes based education in Years 8-10. Our Year 11 students in 2007 will be the first to be awarded a level at the end of the year on their Western Australian Certificate of Education. Further challenges will undoubtedly confront staff as we move towards a full implementation in our Learning Area in 2008. I thank the staff for dealing with all these issues in such a professional manner.

It is the vision of this Learning Area to develop a community of learners. Our students’ learning paths travel alongside those of adult learners who are committed to innovation and best teaching practice.

We are also committed to students achieving their highest potential. We seek to develop an environment where clear goals can be set and staff support students in their own learning. We also seek to develop an ethos that learning time is precious and that students should take full advantage of the opportunities presented to them.

Our students are presented with a variety of opportunities to learn about real world issues. Learning, of course, takes place in the classroom, however students in 2006 have also learnt a great deal about the various subject areas on field trips, excursions, listening to guest speakers and conducting their own inquiry projects.

I wish to acknowledge the fine efforts of Mr Andrew Osnain who has undertaken the role of Middle School Coordinator in 2006. I wish him luck next year as he takes on the Head of Year 8 role. I look forward to working with Mr Anthony Lunt who takes up the role of Middle School Coordinator. I would also like to thank all of the staff that have put in extraordinary efforts to help produce well-informed citizens of the world. The high regard in which you are all held by the student body is testament to your dedication and professionalism. To all members of the Learning Area I thank each of you for a great year and look forward to your efforts in 2007.

So what learning opportunities have Society and Environment staff provided for students this year?

Students have conducted ‘hands on’ fieldwork in Geography. Students have visited Point Perron studying coastlines, the Hills Discovery Centre in Mundaring to explore the make-up of Western Australia’s forests, and have studied rural and urban communities in areas from Perth to Bakers Hill. Economics students have participated in the Stock Market Game where

Mr Peter Duckett Senior Enterprise Coordinator

n 2006 the Senior Enterprise Program has experienced many exciting changes and growth within the program. Mr Brendan Chapman entered the program for semester two to continue the excellent work that Mrs Marie Zwart has done with the students in the program, whilst Mr Peter Duckett took over as Senior Enterprise Coordinator.

A great example of the hard work and commitment that exists within the program’s members is the growth of the Olive Grove at Camp Kelly. Students attend camp to work and maintain the program’s Olive Grove. In only six months, it has grown from 50 smaller olive plants, to 100 fenced, reticulated and healthy olive trees that have become a real landmark entrance to the College’s campsite. The young men who have contributed to the Olive growth should be very proud of what will become a successful business venture in the near future. Students have also continued to successfully manage their laundry, plant and worm enterprises conducted at the College, which financially support other aspects of their program.

There has also been significant achievement during 2006. Three students completed their Certificate I in Business, whilst two students completed their Certificate II in Business. Senior Enterprise members have successfully involved themselves in work experience and INSTEP programs; some have used this valuable workplace experience to apply for apprenticeships and gainful employment.

In the program’s other subjects, students learned valuable aquatic rescue and lifesaving skills. These aquatics skills were extended into an advanced canoeing course and some surf and safety lessons facilitated at Scarborough Beach. Students explored

movement patterns such as yoga, dance and circus skills through various workshops facilitated by Ms Ruth Bott. Mr Richard Cackett assisted the boys with their Information Technology skills. The students have set up a Senior Enterprise web page. This web page will be developed further in 2007 and the communication aspect of students’ enterprise expanded.

Practical Design and Technology skills are also a focus for the students, designing and creating individual projects such as jewellery boxes and picture frames under the guidance of Mr Tony Webb. Mr Peter Duckett helped the students to develop an increased understanding of horticulture, learning the intricacies of soil profiling, fertilisers and reticulation. Practical use of their knowledge of horticulture has been utilised in the Olive Grove at Camp Kelly, and a vegetable garden that students have created at Waterford.

Mr Phil Jurjevich has continued to foster healthy and lifelong fitness habits in the students. Fitness lessons have explored the body’s various energy systems, giving students varied experience in different methods of increasing and maintaining personal strength and conditioning. All these experiences develop a great sense of self esteem, socialisation and personal confidence in students, helping them to acquire valuable skills for a healthy and balanced life outside of Trinity College.

We are very fortunate to have the continued support of some excellent volunteers. Mrs Loretta Tobin and Mrs Sue Walker have kindly assisted the boys with activities such as their business skills, lifestyle cooking and horticulture at camp. The expertise of both of these wonderful volunteers has contributed to the success of the Senior Enterprise Program in 2006.

It is through enterprise education that students can practically apply the knowledge they acquire, learning valuable lifelong skills that will assist them in their approaching careers. Senior Enterprise students have planned, developed and incorporated a broad array of personal, business and industry skills which will provide a valuable base from which our students can confidently and successfully exit the College.

Mr Kevin Johns Career Development Coordinator

t the close of 2006, we can look back on the past few years and see real progress in the provision of services to students. Trinity career resources help all students, particularly our university-bound students who benefit from web programs, printed materials, guest speakers and private consultations.

Thanks to the OECD taking the initiative in 2002, many countries in the world have turned their focus on to career development. If people of all ages are going to find quality of life, they must move from the one-jobfor-life thinking and take on lifelong learning as part of their career. Perhaps they will find a career path in the one industry for life but even within that industry they will need to be flexible and be able to perform multiple tasks.

Local Community Partnerships From 2006, Australian Government Local Community Partnerships (LCPs) will be incorporated. These are not-for-profit, community based and locally operated organisations contracted by the Department of Education, Science and Training. LCPs will partner with industry and employer groups, schools, professional career advisers, community organisations, parents, young people, youth service providers and other government and community organisations to assist all young people aged 13-19 years to gain the skills, experience and professional guidance to help them achieve a successful transition through school, and from school to further education, training and employment.

Trinity College belongs to the Western Career Alliance which covers as far west as City Beach and north to Leederville. There are nineteen schools in this local partnership area.

Senior Enterprise Under the new management of Peter Duckett, the Senior Enterprise Program will offer twelve (approx) students the opportunity to be involved in several business ventures and a variety of skill based subjects to equip them for employment at the end of Year 12. Some will engage in structured workplace learning and some will complete Certificate I and/or II in Business. Thanks to Marie Zwart for guiding the program to this point.

Career Development Council To help create a sustainable structure for the College, a council was set up two years ago consisting of staff and parents initially, with the intention of adding students as the council “matured”.

The council represents the interests of the stakeholders in career education. Currently, parent representatives are Judith Marinoni, Michael Brown and David Love.

Staff are Kevin Johns (Chair), Doug Simpson (VET), Martin Tobin (Leadership Team) and Tony Webb (Enterprise Education). Marie Zwart has new responsibilities in 2007 and we thank her for her contribution over the past two years.

The council has presented two comprehensive reports to the Principal with many recommendations which are being dealt with effectively. Next year, the council will extend its connections with the Local Community Partnership and with other agencies.

Vocational Education and Training (VET) After careful consideration of the needs of some of the boys at Trinity, the IT department will offer a “stand alone” VET course in 2007. Students who enrol in this course will not be required to consider the outcomes set by the Curriculum Council. They will focus on the National Training Authority competencies only. This move is considered to be good for everyone and it will replace the current embedded Certificate II. Students may advance to Cert III in 2008.

For several years now, staff in the IT, Physical Education and Senior Enterprise Program have been helping students to gain dual certification by satisfying the requirements of the Curriculum Council for WACE and at the same time gaining competencies designed by the National Training Authority. Forty one students successfully completed a certificate in 2006. Four students completed traineeships. Thanks to Mr Douglas Simpson who as VET coordinator kept track of all these activities.

DREAM TEAM students completed the first half of their program with Housing Industry Apprentices earning a Certificate 1 in General Construction.

Congratulations.

006 has been another successful year for Trinity College in the PSA competition and one which not only consolidated our position as a strong sporting school but also one which places great emphasis on the value of participation, sportsmanship and fair play.

the coaching staff. Strong performances by our younger teams indicate that we will remain very competitive in football for at least the next few years.

Congratulations to Josh Hill-Carter who was picked up by the Western Bulldogs in this year’s AFL draft.

The demands of fielding teams in the PSA competition continue to become more significant each year with all the schools trying to provide as many boys as possible with interschool competition. When Trinity first joined the PSA back in 1968, there were nine sports played and we put out twenty-eight teams each year – now there are fifteen sports played and we field more than eighty teams per year. The challenge of providing quality competition, coaching and facilities will continue to grow.

A new trophy was introduced into the rugby season with Trinity and Hale competing for the Lindegaard Trophy. David worked as a teacher and coach at both schools before tragically losing his battle with cancer late last year. In recognition of his contribution to rugby, all future fixtures will contest the Lindegaard Trophy with the results of all games from Year 8 through to Year 12 contributing to the final result. Hale won the inaugural contest.

Mr Stephen Leahy Director of Sport

From a purely results perspective, Term One was in some ways disappointing in that several of our senior teams performed particularly well but fell just short of winning their respective competitions. Our swimming team amassed its highest ever points total but this was not quite enough to win the Tregonning Cup, a trophy we have yet to win in more than 38 years of trying.

The 1st V111 rowers were also desperately disappointed when they finished second by just a canvas at the Head of The River. These boys rowed the fastest time ever by a Trinity crew – 5 minutes 59.40 seconds – and they are the second fastest crew in PSA history – unfortunately they just happened to be in the same race as the fastest crew ever. The 1st V basketball team has lost just two games in the last two seasons which meant they finished second on both occasions – a great effort nonetheless.

Early in Term Two, Trinity hosted a “Promoting Values in Sport” forum at which the Wallabies Chris Latham and Phil Waugh discussed their insights into a range of topics including pride, teamwork, sportsmanship and life balance. There were about 500 people in attendance and it was great for the boys to hear about the commitment and sacrifices that elite level performers have to make to reach the level they are at.

The highlight of the winter season was the outstanding performance of the 1st XV111 boys who won nine of their ten games to retain the Alcock Cup for the fourth consecutive year. Given the quality of this competition, this is really an outstanding effort by the players and

Our overall sporting strength was again evident in that we finished second in the soccer and cross country competitions to complete a highly competitive winter season.

In the latter part of Term Three, the athletics team retained the Alcock Shield for the third time winning the PSA inters by a narrow margin of 44 points.

Importantly this victory meant that in the three “whole school” events which require a contribution from boys in Year 8 through to Year 12 – swimming, the Hamer Cup for rowing and the athletics, Trinity finished in the top three schools on each occasion.

There have been some promising results in the fixtures played in Term Four which is primarily a pre-season for Term One, 2007. Congratulations to the 1st, 2nd and 3rd V basketball teams who combined to win the Shortland-Jones Cup for overall strength in basketball.

Two of our most dedicated coaches will be leaving at the end of this year and our best wishes and appreciation go to Adam Scott and Charlie Liggins who have been the driving forces behind hockey and waterpolo respectively – they will be missed.

In conclusion, it remains for me to recognise and thank the many people who make such a contribution to the sport program at Trinity. Without the support of the teaching staff, the ground staff, the parent helpers, the College administration, external coaches and the students, a program as large as ours would be very difficult to run. Thank you all for a massive effort this year.

Athletics Sport

T

his year the Trinity Athletics team retained the Alcock Shield for the third consecutive year, when the boys responded to a strong challenge from Aquinas College to win by a narrow margin of 44.5 points.

After a fairly low key meet with Iona to get the season underway, there were two important selection meets held in the lead up to the Inters – the College Age Championships and the Tri–meet with Aquinas and Hale.

Mr Stephen Leahy Director of Sport

Results from the College Age Championships, held on the third Saturday of the season, demonstrated that the team would be well balanced with an even spread of talent within each age group. It was also reassuring that there were no obvious areas of weakness in the make up of the team. Eventual winners of their respective age groups were Jordan Carlino, Francis Baptist, Joshua Hicks, Anthony Lipari and Daniel Evans – well done boys.

The Tri–meet was held the following week under lights on a Friday evening at the Ern Clarke Athletics Centre.

The superb surface and the novelty of a night meet helped many boys produce outstanding performances, making the selection of the team to compete at the Inters the following week even more difficult than we had already anticipated.

The Inters were held on a Friday for the first time in PSA history. For much of the day the team held a narrow lead over the other six schools, which was extended to a more significant margin by the 400m runners, who accrued 136 points – a great effort. The final individual races, the gut busting

168

1500m events, saw Aquinas come strongly back into contention, and by the start of the relays our lead had been reduced to single figures. Three firsts, one second and one third from the five relays was enough to get the team home in an absorbing finale to the carnival – a great effort from all the boys.

Two new Trinity records were set this year, both in the under16 age group – Matthew Cowie threw the discus 56.44 metres and Joshua Hicks ran the 800m event in a time of 1 minute and 59 seconds. Anthony Lipari won the Old Boys’ Award for the most points scored by an individual athlete at the Inters for the third consecutive year.

Congratulations to all the Year 12 athletes on being involved in three successive Inters wins, and especially to the open relay team who have won their event every year since Year 8. The leadership all these boys demonstrated set a fine example to the younger athletes who will in time step into the team leadership roles.

Thank you to the many parents who assisted over the season with the many jobs which needed to be done – timekeeping, officiating, recording, sausage sizzles, the team dinner and coaching to mention but a few of the tasks undertaken by the parent body. Thank you also to the ten coaches, most of them staff members, who brought the team together with their blend of expertise, goodwill and good humour.

A final thank you is extended to all the athletes for their efforts over a short but intense season and especially to the team reserves who did not compete on the day, but were very important contributors towards the final result.

Basketball Sport

T

he 1st V Basketball campaign for the Blackwood Cup began in October 2005, with a very talented squad put through a vigorous pre-season training regime. After a very successful Term Four – where the 1st V, 2nd V and 3rd V managed Mr Andrew Osnain to win the combined 1st V Manager Shortland Jones Cup – the senior boys were looking forward to the upcoming Blackwood Cup.

The fixture against Christ Church marked the end of an important era in Trinity Basketball. Myles Kelly has decided to leave Trinity College after instilling his expertise and professionalism into the Trinity Basketball program over a six year period. Prior to Myles’ arrival our teams were renowned for being easy beats. Much of the success of the Trinity Basketball program is the result of his hard work and dedication, in conjunction with the commitment of staff coaches. Trinity Basketball has become a serious force across all year groups.

Term Four 2005 and Term One 2006 results from Year 8 to Year 10 suggest that Trinity Basketball will continue to go from strength to strength in future years.

The 2006 season did not begin as planned, losing players to injury and outside commitments, however the team remained focussed and ready to take their basketball to the next level. Unfortunately the 1st V lost to Aquinas in the second game of the season, which inevitably handed the Blackwood Cup to Aquinas College. The boys could have easily dropped their heads and gone through the motions, but to their credit they fought out the season in true Trinity style winning the remaining fixtures against Guildford, Scotch, Christ Church and Wesley.

With the coaching expertise of Mr Tim Redden, Mr Russell Hinks, Mr Rohan Van Dongen and Mr John Montagu, students will continue to improve and strive for excellence both on and off the court.

Finally, I would like to thank all parents and students for their commitment to Trinity Basketball. A great deal of work behind the scenes is a result of parental involvement and that is greatly appreciated.

Mr Phillip Jurjevich Senior Cross Country Manager

he 2006 season was an awesome experience for all involved. Most boys produced a procession of improved times and relished the reward of achieving their personal best. Congratulations to Aquinas in taking out the Moyes Cup for the Senior Team and to the Trinity Juniors for their juggernaut performance going undefeated.

Under the coaching of Mr Jamieson, Ms Campisi, Mr James, Mr Privilege, Mr O’Connell and myself the boys had a day trip to Keith’s Surf School and enjoyed several combined training sessions and breakfast with the Iona Cross Country team. I would like to thank all of the coaches for the extra time they put into this season.

Under the leadership of Tim Hunt, Liam Plummer, Jay Colton, James Ielati and Josh Hicks the boys in the Senior Team ended up second to Aquinas after beating them on their course in the first fixture. Aquinas from this point on, added to their team (which is within the rules) and surpassed us in the relays. All of our runners were faster by the end of the season as was displayed by the improved times. We didn’t bring home the trophy this season however all can be proud of their efforts.

Josh Hicks broke Dave Rossbach’s 5.9km Bridges record, with a time of 19.48. He also ran a time of 34.30 for the 10km Bridges run for the missions. The top ten students were: Josh Hicks Josh Nicholas Liam Plummer Dylan Dewsbury

To run the 10km Bridges in less than forty minutes is a great achievement and the depth of our young runners is enormous. Nine of these runners are in Year 10 or below and this bodes well for the next few seasons.

Josh Hicks was the best Senior Runner and Josh Nicholas the best Junior. In the whole Senior competition in the final event of the season they placed 1st and 3rd with Dylan Dewsbury, Ken Duggan, Eamon Costello and Terry Price also in the top thirty of all schools. This was a phenomenal performance from some brave young men. Glenn Marinovich, Dave Vulin and Corbin Mondy all made major improvements in their speed and picked up valuable places in the team.

Josh Hicks, Josh Nicholas, Dylan Dewsbury, Eamon Costello, Chris Dale, Kenneth and Aidan Duggan, all went on to represent the state in Cross Country or Middle Distance. At the Ray Brown 8km race in Kings Park, with three of our top four Year 12s not racing; it was a moral win for Trinity. Our proud tradition in running and the pure test of character and spirit is something we are very proud of. The teams jogging back to encourage other Trinity runners and opposition runners, the selflessness in their training and their complete exhaustion showed that this season was a win for a very brave young team.

T

rinity football has enjoyed another good year with students showing dedication and great talent. The 8B team were undefeated and the 8A team showed great improvement finishing second. Year 9B2 team finished equal first.

Displaying outstanding talent Mr John Montagu Coach 1st XVIII the 9A team finished on the top of the table with nine wins and one draw.

The 10A team were undefeated and the 10Bs also finished first. The 3rd XVIII was second and the 2nd XVIII finished first with eight wins, one draw and one loss. Congratulations must go to the 1st XVIII on winning the fourth consecutive Alcock Cup especially as the last three have been outright results.

Trinity is clearly in a purple patch with terrific player depth throughout the school and a strong culture based on team orientated football as well as having excellent parental support. The level of success is obviously due to the athletic abilities and skills of the students. Support from the coaching staff, parental fundraising and team management are all important aspects that have contributed towards a highly successful season.

Talent and equipment are all important but it is the Trinity ethos of working hard to protect your mate which is at the core of what we are about. An opposition parent at a top of the table clash for the 1st XVIII against Guildford summed up what I am alluding to. He said that the Guildford side had prepared hard to overcome the Trinity efforts at contested ball. They were with them for the first, second and third efforts but could not match the Trinity lads after that point. The 2006 1st XVIII gave a stellar performance in every game and have set the bar very high for 2007.

Well done to Kane Lucas and Xavier Foley for making the State 15s Football Team. Both students played key roles in the success of the team in the Darwin Carnival. Kane was made Vice Captain and was selected in the All Australian side. Tom Gryta was also selected to central umpire in the State 16s Carnival.

The Friends of Trinity Football have made an outstanding contribution to our football program. Mr Patrick Ward has been the cornerstone of this drive.

Mr Chris Brockwell, Mrs Ruth Stevenson, Mr Mike Bradshaw, Mr Kevin McGinnity and Mrs Kelly Russell plus many others have given us amazing support for which we are very grateful. Some of the resources provided to Football by the community this year are as follows.

Trinity 1st XV111 Football Team What a fantastic season. Probably the smallest 1st side I have coached but did they have some athletic ability and heart! Pound for pound these lads fought out of their weight every game. The side clearly had the best midfield in the competition and it was this running ability and the tenacity of the players in evenly matched contests which set them above the rest.

The character of the team of 2006 was tested early in the season when leading all day we cramped up against Aquinas in the first game and lost in the last few minutes. We all knew that from that point on we had to win every game to win the Cup outright. The challenge was before us. Every game was a final and the lads responded like men after the initial set back.

There were many highlights in the season. The return game against Aquinas was fantastic. We started poorly and gave them a five goal lead in the first quarter. Then the side just lifted, it was a great contest as both sides had a red hot go. Wardy our VC spoke to the team letting them know how much the contest meant to him and the rest of the senior lads. It really was all about the “will of the team” you cannot coach passion and honour, the men of 2006 brought that with them. James Embley as Captain and three times Alcock Champion played in the 2004 epic at Memorial against Aquinas; he along with the amazing Jarrhan Jacky (VC) and Patrick Ward (VC) were our leadership group. They were inspirational captains on and off the field. I could not have asked for better role models.

Guilford were our major threat outside the Red and Black. Both games were played at a terrific pace.

We blew them away in the second half of the first game. The return match was a virtual Grand Final played in the heart of the Swan Valley. They had significant size on us and had set themselves up to hotly contest this game. Our lads played the best first quarter I have seen in years with a seven goal start.

Football Football

Everything worked, I could see that it was going to be our day. The rest of the game was a close and hard fought contest. We maintained the advantage achieved in the first quarter. A good result against Christ Church in the final game secured our fourth title in as many years. Well done lads, you were simply the best schoolboy side in the state.

Finally I would like to thank our coaching staff and managers. Mr Dan Foley and Mr John Lucas (fathers of Xavier and Jesse and Kane respectively) were fantastic coaches. They bought their significant VFL and AFL experience to our football program. Dan’s laidback and personable approach to the lads is much appreciated. John gave us interesting and ever changing training drills throughout the season.

Mr Kevin McGinnity (father of Patrick and Kelly our terrific Physio) was our team manager who, like Dan and John, has been there and done it all before with the Mighty Royals. With a minimum of fuss Kevin made game day just flow.

Mr Phillip Jurjevich Rowing Coordinator

006 has been a very rewarding season with the Rowing Club placing a close third in the Hamer Cup and a second in the Challenge Cup in a time of 5.59.4, a new record for the school and the second fastest time ever after this year’s winning crew, Christ Church.

To start the season we had a great performance at the Guildford on Swan Regatta with our 1st and 2nd VIIIs and our 1st and 2nd IVs all winning and placing the school second to Scotch, the first time anyone but Guildford has won the event.

Then in December, before the Christmas break, the rowers in contention for the 1st VIII went on a tour to Tasmania to compete in the Tasmanian State Championships and be coached by John Driessen, the Australian Rowing Team coach. James Ielati placed 12th out of 44 rowers in the National selection trial into a howling headwind. Other highlights included a trip to Cradle Mountain with Liam Plummer versus gravity and rocks, the coaches winning in a quad, Ben Fairclough winning a race with no seat, Liam Plummer setting a record up Barrington’s 3.4km of vertical roads in 14.22 min and winning 14 out of 17 races. St Virgils and St Marys – a Christian Brothers combined school from Hobart with boys and girls were our hosts and stayed and trained with us at the lake. Damien Messer, Trinity Old Boy, teacher and son of Mr John Messer the longest serving 1st VIII coach and rock of the Club, was essential in making the tour happen. We have extended an invitation to the rowers of St Virgils to join us for our January camp in 2007.

parents in stealth. Mrs Cath Gomboc and Mr Toni Ielati made enormous contributions with the running of the kitchen and accompanying the Tour respectively, toast and espresso may never again reach the same heights!

The work of the Platts family, the Ielati family, the Cherubino family, the Dee family and Guy and Glenda Grant were pivotal in raising the extra funds to enable us to buy this boat. This was the last year of a successful period with Guy Grant as the President and we thank him for his passion, you have been a great inspiration with your hard work and enthusiasm.

Special efforts were plenty with Josh Hicks pulling a 6.47 Ergo as a Year 10, James Ielati the open Ergo and scull Champion with 6.31 and James Ielati, Will Brockwell, Christian Eyres and Brendan Murray all being selected to train with WAIS. Thanks to all of our coaches and a welcome to Gavin Russell a dual World Champion Coach and former Head of WAIS Junior Coaching. Gavin has been an enormous addition and has enabled the boys he has coached to stake their two arms and legs against anyone’s and perform.

The Club numbers are at bursting point with us unable to accommodate any more rowers. Rob Thomas was an exceptional Captain with Liam Plummer and James Ielati Vice Captains and Jay Colton Captain of Coxswains. All four were exceptionally generous to all other boys in the Club with their help around the shed and coaching the youngsters.

Mr Phillip Jurjevich Rowing Coordinator

The season was all you could ask for with every crew going into the Head of the River regatta having a real chance and a win at some point through the year. James Ielati continued our run of success in the George Xouris Cup. Only the 2nd IV came first but all crews were rewarded with the experience of a brave campaign and pushing the boundaries of their capacity.

With three weeks to go in the season there was a great boost with the arrival of the “Kosovich Spirit” a new eight to celebrate the contributions and passion of the Kosovich family, Ray, Sue and Tony over the last 13 years. This was a surprise with the new hull being hidden under the pool and assembled by coaches and

T

he season saw a new look First XI with only three players returning from last year. The preseason training and trials sorted out the other twelve players required to make up the First XI squad and this year there was a balance with three from Year 10, six from Year 11 and six from Year 12. The coach, Steve Neville, was initially concerned with the ability of this group to play together as a team, but his fears proved to be unfounded as the First XI won five games in a row to top the table half way through the season.

Hale School were also undefeated at this stage of the competition and so the round six game against Hale, and played at Hale school, effectively became our grand final. In a tight, closely fought and sometimes controversial game Trinity lost 3 – 2. Despite winning three more games Trinity finished the season in second place, two points behind Hale School.

The First XI also competed in the Champions Schools Cup competition which is open to every school in Western Australia. After making their way through the round robin stage they were drawn against Corpus Christi College in the knockout stage. With the score at 2 – 2 after normal time the result was eventually decided on penalties with Trinity losing 4 – 3.

As this was my last year as First XI Team Manager I would like to thank all the players for making this an exciting and enjoyable season. Their passion for the game and their camaraderie was excellent and at all times they showed the true Trinity Spirit. My thanks also go to Steve Neville, who coached the boys in the finer skills of the game. Steve is also retiring after three years in the role but is leaving the team in the experienced hands of Jamie Harnwell for the 2007 season. Finally, thank you to the wonderful parents whose enthusiasm and volume of support on the sidelines never faltered.

The other soccer teams had mixed results this season; the 9A, 8B and 8C teams won their competitions; the 2nd XI, 9B and 8A teams finished second; the 9C team finished third, and all other teams finished fourth.

I would like to thank all the staff members whose enthusiasm and coaching skills have helped to achieve these results.

T

he PSA Swimming season for 2006 was an exciting one for the emergent Trinity Swimming Team. Having finished a respectable 4th in 2005, the hopes were high for an improvement in 2006. Since entering the PSA Trinity College has never been placed in the top three Mr Dion Mepham Team Coach of this competition, so any move up the ladder would have heralded a new era in Trinity swimming.

The season started with a record turnout at summer holiday training. Many new swimmers tried their hand at improving their times enough to break into the team.

As the summer wore on, it became apparent that this would be a special year. The first glimpse of this was the number of Year 8 and 9 swimmers who were improving on personal best times at the Pastoral Care Group carnivals. Mr Duckett’s special technical work with this group had obviously been paying dividends.

196

confidence boost coming into the major competition of the season.

On the day of the Inters, the boys were well prepared by a magnificent lunch arranged by the mothers of the team, followed by an inspirational movie and a team warm up. Despite the bus being late and heavy traffic causing a few heart attacks, we arrived in time for the first race. Fittingly, Captain Alex Lee led the team in the first race of the night.

Corey McIntosh (Year 11) broke one of two individual records achieved on the night, in the U/16 50m Backstroke, in 28.25seonds. He also won the Div 1 100m Freestyle and 50m Butterfly events. Jakeb Norman won the U/14 Div 1 50m Freestyle, whilst James Ballard commenced his TC swimming career with a win in the U/13 Div 1 50m Breaststroke.

Second division winners on the night included NJ Cartagena (U/14 Div 2 50m Freestyle, Div 2 50m Butterfly), Tim Quinlan (U/16 Div 2 100m Breaststroke), Luke Pardini (U/13 Div 2 50m Breaststroke), Taylor Colton (U/14 Div 2 50m Backstroke) and Jack Connelly (U/13 Div 2 50m Butterfly).

At the Age Championships, a number of outstanding performances were recorded and the winners of the championship had to fight uncharacteristically hard for their title, due to the overall increase in the strength of each age group competing.

Trinity were also the most successful relay school winning seven of the relay races (U/ 13 Div 1 Medley and Freestyle and Div 2 Freestyle, U/14 Div 1 Medley, U/15 Div 2 Freestyle, Open Div 1 and Div 2 Freestyle).

Scotch won four relays and Christ Church three.

Consequently there were high expectations for the Quads competition in early March. Traditionally, the Quads allows us to gauge our chances at the Inters and a strong second place behind Wesley was a nice

Credit must go to Luke Pardini (Year 8), who maintained his composure in the face of a questionable disqualification in the Freestyle and a false start in the Breaststroke (which saw the field swim 40m before

Swimming Sport

being recalled), to swim one of the most inspirational Butterfly legs of recent memory. He swam from 4th position into 1st, to help win the U/13 Div 1 Medley Relay.

The most exciting race was saved for the very end, the Open Freestyle Relay. A solid start was made by Ben Loverock, touching 3rd; half a body length behind the leader, Pat McGinnity continued the strong showing, holding his position before changing over to Captain Alex Lee. Alex dominated the leg, overtaking Christ Church and Wesley, handing over to Kered Gale, who blitzed early before being dragged in by Wesley, eventually winning by the smallest of margins, 0.1seconds. A fitting way to end a magnificent night.

his season saw a familiar finishing position of fifth place for the 1st VIII. However what this does not show is how much we have closed the gap between ourselves and Aquinas, Scotch and Christ Church.

Only a few sets now separates us from gaining wins over these schools. Clearly Hale School was again the trend setter, however after our fixture with Hale their coach commented that his team certainly knew they had been in a tough encounter with Trinity.

While our training and playing venue was in turmoil at the end of 2005, a new agreement is now in place with a long term association with Tennis West for the use of the State Tennis Centre. It is not only very convenient because of its location but creates a great atmosphere when we can have all of our teams playing together at the one venue.

It is very encouraging to see all the tennis players start to push boundaries in their preparation through their efforts to develop much higher levels of consistency, strength and fitness. So many of our players can now confidently go on to the court knowing that they can ‘hang in there’ even when the going gets really tough.

This attitude is making each member of the team a substantially more difficult opponent.

The tennis standard overall of Trinity College has steadily increased over the last three years and the next few years promise to be most exciting.

T

his year Trinity started the volleyball season in Term One with high hopes of victory. Our Middle School squad has swelled to greater numbers and the upper school teams were more experienced than ever before. The prospect of winning the Brother Carrigg Shield seemed well within reach.

In the Middle School both teams started out strongly.

Under the experienced eye of Ms Janelle Pagoda, the Middle B team managed to achieve equal first in our best result ever for a Year 8 squad. The Middle A team coached by Mr Bobby Emmanuel once again had a battle against arch rivals Aquinas College for the number one spot. Both teams remained undefeated and in a close match we had to be consoled with second place. In fourth term, the Middle School teams once again dominated the other schools. Unfortunately both teams dropped a couple of close matches and finished third overall. Things look very secure for the future generations of volleyball at Trinity College.

In the Senior Squad, the Year 10 team were busy making the transition to senior level. With the help and encouragement of old boy Tom Filipeck, the Year 10s managed to improve consistently over the season and many boys were promoted to seconds and first teams in term four.

The seconds and thirds squads led by Mr Craig Adams and Ms Rita Basilio made the biggest leap forward into senior volleyball. With the expert tutelage of Mr Brendan Chapman, these squads were targeted in terms of improving fitness, skill and tactical awareness. Making the jump to specialised setting, hitting and passing roles greatly improved the standard of play and also gave more boys the chance to move into the first team.

The First Squad achieved great results over the year.

After a disappointing Term One result of finishing in last place, a rejuvenated squad that now boasted state players Connor Smith, Josh Marinoni, and a further two players who made the list, Trinity took to the court in term four in an effort to show the PSA that we had what it takes to win matches.

Captain Isaac Dart led by example and proved to be the most consistent player on court. Remaining undefeated until the last game, we faced off against Aquinas, also undefeated in a special Friday night game at Gibney Hall in Trinity College. In the first set Trinity were untouchable, winning comfortably but Aquinas rallied to even the score in a very close second set where Trinity had the set point but failed to convert. The third set was all Aquinas and Trinity were reeling on the back foot. In a final effort to even the set score, all stops were pulled to achieve victory.

Unfortunately it was not to be and after two hours of intense play Trinity was defeated on home soil.

Special mention must go to Connor Smith, who relished his role as power hitter, Mark McKenna who is regarded as the best passer in the PSA and specialist setter Sam Cadwallader; all made outstanding contributions over the season.

Some upcoming events next year will be the Volleyball Camp in Term One, the State Schools Cup in Term Three and Nationals Schools Cup in Term Four. With so much development going on we must offer our thanks to all the coaches, parents and friends that have been involved in the volleyball and supported Trinity College this year. Look out for more volleyball in 2007!
