Edmund Rice Education Australia Report Edmund Rice Education Australia (EREA) continues to value the wonderful opportunities provided through Catholic education of young people in your school along with over 47 other schools throughout every state and territory of Australia. Dr Wayne Tinsey Executive Director

This network of schools continues its proud tradition of challenging young people to make a difference in their world through the myriad of studies, spiritual experiences, service learning, outreach, training and cultural and sporting pursuits. Over the past year, a further 24 Catholic schools who have at some time experienced a connection with the Edmund Rice story and the Christian Brothers, have joined EREA as Associate Schools. This expansion of connection within the Network of schools will provide future opportunities to share in the vision and mission of Catholic education throughout Australia. We celebrate with you and congratulate you on the joys and successes of the past year in the knowledge that your contribution continues to give life to the EREA Network. Your role in Catholic education in your part of our world is heralded and we thank you for the many who have significantly contributed to the journey of our young people. We support your efforts to bring the Gospel to life in ways that are unique in your context.

In 2012 we held a Congress to celebrate EREA’s life over its initial five years. This Congress helped us all to reflect on the past, engage in the present and envision the future – to consider advancing towards what can be!

Warm congratulations and sincere thanks for your contribution to Catholic education; and for your faithfulness in living out our Charter. We offer our blessings to your community for a hope filled future. Dr Wayne Tinsey Executive Director Edmund Rice Education Australia

Headmaster’s Report

It is with immense pride that I present the 2012 Trinity College Annual Report. Mr Ivan Banks Headmaster

This year has been yet another very busy and exciting time for the community of Trinity College. We began by acknowledging the efforts of the Class of 2011, many of whom performed exceptionally well, being granted entrance into their preferred course either at university or training institutes. Calum Braham College Dux for 2011 was awarded the Beazley Medal, which is presented to the top performing academic student in the State. It is the highest profile and most prestigious academic award for secondary students in WA. It is also the first time in the 29 year history of the Beazley Medal that it has been won by a student attending a Catholic school. Calum also received a General Exhibition (awarded to the top 40 eligible students in the State) and a Course Exhibition for Physics (awarded to the highest achiever in the course). Congratulations to Calum and all our other award winners!

Eight students were awarded 11 Certificates of Distinction (for being in the top 0.5% of students in a course in the State): Calum Braham (Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics), Cameron Sivwright (English), Jon ChungWah-Cheong (Mathematics and Physics), Joseph Clear (Mathematics), Jack Dewsbury (Mathematics), Mitchell Boros (Physical Education Studies), Thomas Durkin (Religion & Life), Matthew Norman (Religion & Life). A total of 19 students were inducted into our elite club for boys achieving an Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank (ATAR) of 97 or better; Jonathon Allen, Calum Braham, Jon Chung-Wah-Cheong, Joseph Clear, Samuel Cox, Jack Dewsbury, Jordan Ding, Thomas Durkin, Jonathan Fiore, Luke Geoghegan, Nicholas Guglielmino, Callum Hart, Michael Hay, Matthew Hopkins, Ben Massam, Matthew Norman, Cameron Sivwright, Mark Wong, Troy Yukich. Both Calum Braham and Tom Durkin were worthy recipients of the Fogarty Foundation Scholarship for UWA and four students, Conor Devlin, Callum Hart, Zach Picciacacco and Arnold Rodricks, received Curtin University Scholarships

Besides Calum, 14 other students – Jon Chung-WahCheong, Joseph Clear, Samuel Cox, Jack Dewsbury, Jordan Ding, Luke Geoghegan, Nicholas Guglielmino, Matthew Hopkins, Ben Massam, Ben Moulton, Matthew Norman, Scott Russo, Leighton Taylor and Ben Turner – received Certificates of Excellence for achieving at least 18 A Grades in course units during Years 11 and 12.

New Staff

Edmund Rice Education Australia

Due to staff movement we welcomed a number of new staff for 2012; Alana Brennan (Year 4), Kathryn Down (Campus Ministry), Mary Hickey (Mathematics), Elise Kukulka (English), Bernard Le Tessier (Year 6), Michael Murphy (RE), John Overton (Business & Physical Education), Samantha Pekaar (Education Assistant), Philip Purvis (Mathematics), and Dale Wetherill (Science).

As a school in the Edmund Rice tradition we are proudly part of EREA. Being part of this network of schools allows us to access a number of formation opportunities for staff and students and gives us a connection with schools throughout Australia.

During the year Paul Appleton (Science), Rickie Beatson (Grounds), Sophie Bingham (Reception), Riccardo Carbone (Mathematics), Valentina Carboni (Administration Assistant), David Ceccarelli (Italian), Ioanna Culleton (Psychologist), Shirley Houston (Special Education), Darlene Levett (Education Assistant), Sarah McGorrery (Accounts Receivable), Aoibheann O’Brien (Psychologist), Aimee Somerville (Administration Assistant), Tina Wheatley (Payroll Officer) all joined the staff.

Our partnership with the Child Health Promotion Research Centre at Edith Cowan University has entered into its second year as we continue to evaluate the effectiveness of Trinity’s Pastoral Care Program and build capacity for action in future years. Data collection involved surveying students, staff, and a random selection of parents to determine key priorities for the future, whilst evaluating the progress of Trinity in relation to existing priorities. I am very pleased to say that overall the analysis indicated that our students feel very safe and enjoy being part of this school.

50 Years Celebrations

Our Four Pillars

The year 2012 will be recorded as the year we celebrated our first 50 years on our East Perth campus to honour the past and inspire the future; a year when we have openly acknowledged our history, not only the last 50 years but also the last 118 years. We are the school that we are because we proudly stand on the shoulders of those who have gone before us.

1. Faith Based Education

Br Tony Kelly, last Headmaster of CBC Perth and first Headmaster of Trinity College, the man who had the responsibility for moving us from the Terrace to East Perth launched the year and congratulated us on achieving this milestone. Throughout this year we have invited many past staff and students, especially a number of graduates from the Class of 1962, to speak to our community and to share their memories of Trinity College. Our guests have included Bishop Justin Bianchini (’57), Br John Carrigg, Mr Jack Messer, Mr Tony Curtis (’56), Br Geoff Seamen and past Trinity students including John Burrell (’62), Tim Delaney (’62), John Gasiorowski (’62), Mark ‘Jack’ Johnson (71), Chris Lalor (’62), Ian Lillico (’69), Richard Trend (’69) and Graeme Wishart (’62). We also honoured the year with three important reunions including one for staff, one for all our past headmasters, and RICKATACKA, a reunion for all past students – these events allowed people to reconnect, and retell and relive past stories. As well as connecting with the past we initiated a number of icons including our Torch of Learning, our Avenue of Trees and the beautiful Madonna and Child mosaic that adorns the wall in the Junior School undercover area. A time capsule was prepared in 1894 and again in 1962 and we have put together another to give the Trinity College community of 2062 a glimpse of life at Trinity during 2012.

Strong Schools Safe Kids Project

We offer a well-rounded education based proudly on Four Pillars:

Our Faith Based education has two main components – Religious Education and Catechesis experiences. Our senior boys continue to study the Curriculum Council Course, Religion & Life, counting towards their ATAR (Australian Tertiary Academic Rank) and Years 7-10 students see a pathway for the Religious Education program leading into Religion & Life 2A/2B, 3A/3B, in Senior School. Our students continue to perform well in the Archbishop’s Religious Literacy examinations. The new Year 7 Making Jesus Real program is an activity based workbook that helps to encourage students to maintain a positive attitude to life within a Christian framework. Our Catechesis activities – Masses, liturgies, retreats, Quest and Kairos – are enjoyed and well supported by our students. We gathered together as a full community to celebrate the Eucharist on three separate occasions: our opening school Mass in February, Ash Wednesday and the Feast Day of Blessed Edmund Rice. All of our Year groups regularly gathered together for Mass. As a staff, we commenced and concluded this year with the Eucharist and we thank Fra Oscar for his presence at Trinity and for leading these liturgies. In January a number of our Year 12 students were trained to be Extraordinary Ministers of the Eucharist and in October we held our Graduation Mass & Ceremony celebrated by Fra Oscar. As a community, we continue to offer the rosary every Wednesday morning. Our school community continues to be well aware of wider community needs. As always we generously contributed to Caritas through Project Compassion, to the Indian Missions through the Fun Run and Unfair Day, to St Vincent de Paul’s Winter Sleep-out, Christmas Appeal hampers and 7


Headmaster’s Report Our Year 10 Experience Counts program involves 12 aged care hostels hosting Year 10 students every Friday afternoon when they are involved in activities such as serving food and dancing with elderly ladies at Happy Hour, calling and playing bingo, playing carpet bowls and chatting to elderly residents about their life experiences Our Year 9 Restoring Relationships program has Year 9 students visiting five primary schools for three weeks, one morning a week, listening to children read and helping out with spelling programs or serving breakfast before school

Brother Olly Pickett congratulates Ivan Banks on a job well done as College staff volunteer to assist at Ollie Pickett’s Wheelchairs for Kids

Quest Retreat canned food collection, and the Edmund Rice ministries in Timor Leste. Year 11 students have been especially community minded with Zachary Rhodes raising over $10,000 for cancer research in the Ride for a Cure event and Charlie Nicolay and Josh Galvin raising $4000 for cancer research in Shave for a Cure. Our Retreat program provides opportunities for our students to explore their personal spirituality and gives our senior students a chance to provide leadership to their peers and younger students. This is especially evident in the Kairos and Quest retreats. The Year 7 Becoming Brothers Retreat is supported by 28 Year 12 Senior Ministers who mentor a group of Year 7 students throughout the entire year. Our Christian Service Learning program is without peer, with our students providing service in a variety of different contexts. The Senior Project, which is a contribution to Christian Service made up of at least 40 hours, was completed by 53 students with outstanding contribution from Alex Di Bucci, Timothy Hadwen, Sean Mariotti (300hr), John Paul Mondelo, Hugh Pilgrim, Henry Prior (320hr), Jordan Randazzo, Jacob Rees (364hr), Charles Roberts (312hr), William Sanders and Rowan Withers (360hr). One notable achievement was Stephen Loughnan who completed 100 hours at one placement, an aged care hostel. Our senior boys and staff are fully committed to the Red Cross Soup Patrol, Br Olly Pickett’s Wheelchairs for Kids, the Indigenous After-School Program at the Edmund Rice Centre in Mirrabooka and visits to elderly residents of aged care facilities. Our Year 11 program asks our students to give five days of their time in service to a variety of community organisations. This year this involved 179 students placed at 83 agencies for four days. Many boys were highly commended for their efforts by the agencies they were placed with.

8

Our Year 8 Our Neighbour program has all Year 8 students completing a program on Christian Service for three weeks in RE classes and then giving 15 hours of service in their home, local community, parish or school. Our Year 7 Serving to Belong program asks all Year 7 students to participate in the Sustain Our Swan program, raising their awareness of the need to care for our environment, and then complete an activity based on the traditions of service embedded in Trinity College life. Our Year 5 students visited the Lincoln Park aged care facility on many occasions. A new program this year was the Staff Christian Service Day when we had 155 staff placed in 52 agencies, giving all staff a greater appreciation of the reason why Christian Service is so important at Trinity College. I thank those staff who teach Religious Education or who lead the Catechetical experiences. To share publicly one’s own faith and spirituality is often very difficult and as a school we are blessed with a group of staff who take this responsibility seriously.

2. Academic Education At Trinity we strive to provide the highest level of teaching and learning that we can. Whether in Year 4 or Year 12 our teachers are dedicated to each student realising his potential. Our students have performed well in both the NAPLAN and the WAMSE tests, with our results being consistently above the State and national averages. We supplement our academic program by entering students in a variety of state, national and international competitions. Aside from the prescribed curriculum, our students compete in a variety of local, national and international competitions.

Harry Price (11.1) and Joseph Caspersz-Loney (11.7) were selected to be part of the UWA smARTS program, a program where participants discuss and develop ideas on topics of contemporary cultural relevance. A number of our Years 8 and 9 students enjoyed the Young Writers Day, while the Year 12 English students viewed a live performance of The Crucible. The visit of renowned author Morris Gleitzman was a highlight for our Year 7 students. Information Technology This year saw the continuation of our laptop program with students in Years 7, 8, 10 and 11 having their own laptop, as well as iPads being introduced to Years 4 and 5. The aim of this program was to ensure that staff and students have access to reliable and stable technology and the students were presented with much of the traditional curriculum in an electronic format.

Headmaster’s Report The PL Duffy Library Resource Centre The library continues to be a hub of learning and activity. Boys gravitate to this venue, not only for the books and resources, but also for chess and other games and the technology available. The library staff provides wonderful support for all the students; again this year they held the Br Gerry Faulkner Short Story Competition.

3. Cultural Providing opportunities for students to be involved in areas such as music, art, dance and drama is a priority at Trinity. Through both the formal curriculum and optional activities the boys can develop skill in these areas. Many of these activities have a performance base and our students have been part of school based concerts, the Catholic Schools Preforming Arts Festival and many others. The concert at the Quarry Amphitheatre, along with the Junior School, Middle School and Senior School concert nights, were well attended with a wonderful standard of entertainment provided. This year, a new program was the development of an Indigenous music group and an Indigenous dance group. These boys, who as part of our larger Indigenous Education program, have made significant contribution to the life of Trinity College, gave a highly acclaimed performance at this year’s Presentation Night. This year the Art Department held not only exhibitions of our own students’ work but invited Julie Silvestri to display her work for our students and community to enjoy. The Art Department was instrumental in ensuring the completion of the beautiful Madonna and Child mosaic, which was unveiled as part of our 50 years celebrations. Junior School Almost all of our Junior School boys participated in the Catholic Schools Performing Arts Festival and it is pleasing to report that many of the Junior School choirs received Honourable Mentions. A number of other students competing in individual events also performed particularly well. Senior School The Zenith Award is presented to the Metropolitan Catholic Secondary school that is judged to have performed best at the Catholic Schools Performing Arts Festival. In 2012, Trinity College received this award for a record ninth consecutive year. Congratulations are also extended to the Trinity/Mercedes Chorale for being awarded the Loreto Sisters Award – Choral Ensemble/Choirs, Trinity/Mercedes Wind Orchestra for the University of Notre Dame Award – Secondary Concert Band, Trinity College Swing Band for the Christian Brothers Award-Jazz Bands, Three Hands One Hoof for the Knights of the Southern Cross Award – Rock Bands, Trinity Senior Chorale for the Therese Temby 10

Award – Secondary Sacred Choral Music, Matthew Dixon (12.3) and Emma Oorschot for the Sisters of St John of God Award – Secondary Vocal Duet, and Max Benson (11.7) for The Chapman Scholarship (Strings). Many of our students or groups are asked to perform at significant community events, where they continue to make us proud.

4. Sport Sport is an important aspect of the education of young men. Through sport they have an opportunity to learn more about themselves and others. They learn to develop resilience in defeat and humility in victory. We have a clearly stated philosophy that every student must play a summer and winter sport for Trinity and I believe that it is this commitment to their fellow students that assists in developing the Trinity Spirit for which we are renowned. Success in sport should never be measured in terms of silverware in the trophy cabinet. Rather, it is the participation and enjoyment of each student that speaks of the success of our sports program. Junior School Our Junior School boys are fully involved with PSA swimming, cross-country and athletics carnivals, as well as the usual summer and winter sports. Our boys were also involved in the WA Junior Triathlon and a new Fundamental Movement Program introduced this year. Senior School At assemblies I was pleased to acknowledge the students who represented Trinity at various sports and to be presented with the Lawe Davies Cup (Soccer), and Hamer Cup (All Crews at the Head of the River). Congratulations to those students who found recognition through sport at the elite levels especially to Daniel Bendotti (State 16s Volleyball), Alessandro Birighitti (Under 14 AFC), Michael Braut (State Water Polo), Nic Brown (State Swimming Team), Nicholas Butler (State 17s Volleyball), Anthony Carbone (State Kayak), Bailey Cole (State 16s Basketball), Antoni D’Alesio (Under 14 AFC), Harrison Davey (State Sailing), James Dawson (State Sailing), Jamie Drewett (State Swimming Team), Brennan Edwards (State Kayak), Nicholas Fabriziani (State 17s Volleyball), Jayden Gerrand (State Indigenous Football Team), Angus Gillespie (Under 16 Region Rugby Union Team), Nixon Hamlet (State Athletics), Mitchell Hampson (State 16s Basketball), Hudson Herron (Australian Institute of Sport, Soccer), Shayne Hille (Vice-Captain, State 16s Football), Louis Jago (National AFL umpire), Brayden Keizer (State 16s Volleyball), Simeon Leatherland (State Little Athletics), Joseph Marino (Under 14 AFC), Jayden Marciano (State Swimming Team), Liam Martin (State 12s Football), Keenan Meade (Under 16 Region Rugby Union


Team), Ben Pellizzari (U13 State Soccer), Callum Radecki (State 15s Football), Harris Regan (State 15s Football), Thomas Rigoll (State Water Polo), Marco Santalucia (State Schoolboys Soccer), Bill Smith (State Swimming Team), Mack Spiers (Australian Team Taekwondo), Callan Starr (State Wakeboarding), Michael Storer (SSWA Triathlon Team), Tim Throssell (State Athletics Team), Michael Waller (Junior Surf State Competition), Kieren Webster (State Ice Hockey), Josh Zekulich (UWA Torpedoes, National Water Polo), Allistar Yarran (State Indigenous Football Team). A number of Old Boys continue to follow their sporting dream and are involved in sport to a very high level.

Other important areas of the life of Trinity College Year 12 Activities The year started with a series of Year 12 seminars that looked at scaling, study techniques and workplace related information. The ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ theme was brought to life at the Ball through countless hours of parent dedication to making breathtaking decorations. Our students and their partners were certainly impressed. On Graduation Day the morning commenced with a breakfast and final assembly followed in the evening by the Graduation Mass & Dinner. These graduation events honour the conclusion of our Year 12 students’ secondary schooling.

Student Leadership As a Year group, the 2012 Year 12s showed great leadership. Whether the boys were Prefect, Year 7 Senior Minister, member of Cadre for the Year 8 Quest Retreat, Kairos leader or one of the unprecedented number of boys to complete their senior project, they donated hundreds of hours of community service and provided wonderful role models for the younger students. Jordan Randazzo (Head Prefect) and Jeremy Ciccarelli (Deputy Head Prefect) provided exemplary leadership for the prefects and the wider school community. Jordan Randazzo, enjoyed the EREA Captains Conference held in Brisbane at the beginning of the year. We also sent the prefects to the Student Impact Leadership Conference.

Year 11 Activities The Christian Service Program is the main focus for Year 11s and this year they committed an extraordinary amount of hours, not just to their assigned Christian Service project, but also to many other projects both inside and outside the Trinity College community. Highlights for the boys were two social events, the river cruise with Mercedes in March and the social in Term 3 in Gibney Hall organised by the Year 11 Councillors, the proceeds of which were donated to the Cancer Council

Year 10 Activities The Personal Development & Wellbeing program was enjoyed by the students. This Friday afternoon program allows the boys to do the Keys for Life (learner driver theory component), Christian Service, Careers Information, IT and Mental Health. The Careers Carousel exploring fields from medicine to construction was well received. I know that the combined social with Mercedes College with the theme ‘Haunted House’ was enjoyed by the students and they were pleased that the roll-out of laptops had reached their Year group. The Year 10s involvement as ‘Roadies’ for the Quest Retreat is always a valuable service to Trinity, as is their participation in their Encounter Retreat.

Year 9 Activities The traditional ballroom dancing lessons with Mercedes College, culminating with the final ‘Rock around the Clock’ social, is always an important event in the Year 9 calendar. On October 24 students attended the Realising Your Potential camp at Camp Kelly for a set of activities and seminars with a focus on challenging individuals physically, mentally and spiritually. The students enjoyed their first experience of contributing time to Trinity’s Christian Service Program with time spent at both Embleton and Bentley Primary schools, and they also enjoyed their Galilee Retreat.

Year 8 Activities The Quest Retreat continues the work that began in 2011 as part of the Faith Formation program and induction into the traditions and expectations of being a Trinity College student. Supported by the Year 11 Peer Ministers and the senior girls from Mercedes, this retreat gave the Year 8 students an opportunity to explore their relationship with God. They were involved in three very significant events that remind them of their connection to the wider community. The first, Grandparent’s Day in May, gave them an opportunity to show their grandparents around and host morning tea for them. The second, the inaugural Year 8 Father-Son camp, saw fathers and sons from the Year 8 cohort spending the weekend at Trinity College. The third was their commitment to raising funds for Brother Ollie’s Wheelchairs for Kids. Brother Ollie visited Trinity to talk to the Year group and was presented with a cheque from the Year 8 boys.

Year 7 Activities Although the majority of our Year 7s were new to Trinity College they quickly settled in to the routine of secondary school. In Term 1 the Becoming Brothers Retreat was a highlight, as were the Term 1 BBQ and Term 3 Social, both with Mercedes College. Our Year 7 students learned to embrace a new wave of technology in the classroom, peering into the world of electronic curriculum as they embraced the one-to-one laptop program.

Headmaster’s Report Junior School

Indigenous Education

I feel confident that our Year 5s who went to Waroona and Year 6s who went to Kalgoorlie and Dwellingup (Leadership Camp), will remember these activities for many years to come. Our congratulations should be extended to our Junior School Chess teams who performed very well in this year’s carnivals. New initiatives, including the Astronomy Camp, Positive Thinking Program, the Garden Club and the Nude Food Program have captured the students’ imagination. The Gifted & Talented program continued with the Evening of Eminence and congratulations must go to the students who achieved first place in the WA da Vinci Competition.

The Indigenous Program at Trinity College is continuing its strong commitment to the engagement of the students in their education. With the implementation of Personalised Learning Plans for our Indigenous students we are hoping that this enables our boys to achieve their goals for the future. Our Mooditj Dance Theatre and Didge Boys are proving to be a great success, with the boys being given many opportunities to perform in our local community. Our NAIDOC Assembly was particularly successful due to the talent of our didge and dance groups and the fact that the whole assembly was run by our Indigenous students. Our guest speaker was Old Boy, Mark (Jack) Johnson (’71). Our boys enjoyed the Indigenous Literacy Day at the WA Museum. One of our Year 12 students, Brodie Hunter, was awarded a trip to the University of New South Wales (UNSW) to attend an induction program for law applicants. Another Year 11 student Frank Mannel went to The Australian Defence Force (ADF) Indigenous Study Tour as he has aspirations to become an army officer.

Education Support through the Mary Rice Learning Centre The Mary Rice Learning Centre, named in honour of Blessed Edmund Rice’s daughter, is a learning centre where students can be challenged to extend themselves and achieve their best. In 2012 their programs included the Year 8 Future Problem Solving Elective, Hale School Philosothon, QuickSmart numeracy, Cert II Business, Sound Way Literacy, Nu Lit and a new listening program for students with auditory processing issues. The senior boys also run a recycling program through Cert II Business. The staff assisted a number of students with organisation and behaviour issues, supervised exams and worked closely with teachers in classrooms. Learning support is always flexible, appropriate and directed towards our students achieving their best.

Careers While attending to all the usual career education activities, staff members have concentrated this year on assisting students to identify their strengths and develop lifelong learning habits. Students continued to participate in Career Carousels, Personal Development & Wellbeing classes, UMAT preparation seminars, university life and scholarship seminars and enjoyed personal interviews. Parents and Old Boys have also been valuable partners in this process and their assistance has been appreciated.

Vocational Education and Training Not every student desires to further his study at university and for many secondary school will lead into traineeships, apprenticeships or study at one of the training Institutes. This year 103 students were supported in this aim with an opportunity to do Certificate I and II in a variety of areas. As a school we offer seven certificate courses for our students to access. This year we had 28 students blending school work with workplace learning and four students were involved in traineeships.

12

Astronomy The observatory, which is at the heart of our Astronomy program, is still very popular. This year our students launched a helium-filled balloon, which ascended to nearly 35km and took photos of WA. The payload was equipped with Arduino based data loggers measuring temperature pressure and background radiation. Despite poor weather conditions Astronomy students observed the transit of Venus and 16 students travelled to Cairns to observe the total solar eclipse of the sun.

Parent Involvement The level of parent involvement is a hallmark of the Trinity community. The Auxiliary and Council provide a wonderful service to the wider Trinity College community, as do all the ‘Friends of …’ groups, and the Parent Ball is still the hottest ticket in town. This year, we have worked hard to further strengthen our community spirit, with the new role of Community Coordinator being filled by Mrs Julie Fazey. Parent groups have been formed within the different Year groups and events such as casual dinners for mums, outdoor movie evenings for families and parent sundowners have been well attended. In addition, a group of Year 9 students and their fathers undertook a morning of community service at the Waterford Playing Fields and father/son camps were held for students in both Years 7 and 8. Morning tea for parents has been provided following each Year group mass throughout the year and a group of parents have provided meals for those in our Trinity College community who might be in need of support through illness or bereavement. These groups and events have served to give parents and students alike the opportunity to further embrace being a part of the Trinity community, and I thank those who have supported our efforts.


Old Boys

Thank you to our parents

Trinity College enjoys a most rewarding relationship with TOBA. The Old Boys have been significant in providing an additional scholarship to the secondary school and the continuation of their monthly Junior School award for displaying School Spirit is also greatly appreciated. Events like the Golf Day, the Sportsmen’s Lunch, Brendan Ryan Cup for winter sports, the inaugural Summer Sports Day and the many reunions have kept Old Boys connected with their Alma Mater. Many Old Boys thoroughly enjoyed the presentation from Tony Curtis (’56) entitled ‘On the Shoulders of Giants’ and we were specially privileged to have Bishop Justin Bianchini (’57) to celebrate Trinity Sunday Mass with us. RICKATACKA (the 50 Years TOBA reunion) was well supported. The gift of Honour Boards listing those Old Boys who have made the ultimate sacrifice was an inspirational gift and these have been hung in the Trinity College Chapel. This year saw two interstate reunions, one in Melbourne and one in Sydney.

Trinity College can be very proud of its parental involvement. It is a credit to the College that we are blessed with a group of parents who believe that the education of their sons deserves their involvement. The value of having such extensive support from a large number of parents must never be underestimated. Many of you take on the additional burden of leadership within your groups and I thank you for the extra time and energy that this involves.

The Golden Heritage Club for those students who left Trinity more than 50 years ago continues to be well supported. I know that our current Year 12 students appreciated being part of their Term 1 Mass, and the Year 6 students enjoyed interviewing the club members and hearing the stories about school in ‘the old days’.

Facilities Following the extensive building program that has occurred over the last few years, 2012 has been a relatively quiet year. However, many minor projects from our Capital Development Plan were completed, including a complete refurbishment of the chemistry laboratory, refurbishment of the gym floor, removal of the Junior School resource building and replacement with a new climbing frame, new paving and foursquare courts in the Junior School, and removal of one of our demountable classrooms. The proceeds of last year’s fair allowed us to construct a new canopy in our front forecourt and the Auxiliary provided considerable seating for this area. At Dwellingup we installed new shade areas and seating near the main dining room and began work to extend the oval.

Thank you to our staff Trinity College is blessed with an extraordinary staff. I am constantly in awe of the number of opportunities that our staff members are prepared to initiate and undertake for our students. Many of these opportunities occur during weekends and over the holidays when our staff would usually be with their own families. We must never take their efforts and dedication for granted. I thank the staff for their unending generosity and professionalism.

Farewell Each year we say farewell to a number of staff who begin a new chapter of their life. As well as saying goodbye to Mrs Harris Allan, Mr Paul Appleton, Mrs Ruth Bott, Mr John Taylor and Ms Maria White at the end of this year, we have said a fond farewell during the year to Mrs Wanda Armenti, Mr Lal Bisnath, Mrs Susan Grant, Ms Mairead Healy, Ms Darlene Levett, Miss Sarah McGorrery, Mr Paul Merrin, Mr Philip Purvis, Miss Sharon Ralph, Mrs Lorraine Rowbottom, Ms Joanne Sullivan, Mr Drew Thompson, Miss Hannah Thornes and Mr Dale Wetherill.

Conclusion As 2012 draws to a close, we can look back on another busy and productive year, one where students have been encouraged to realise their potential. I fervently pray that we continue to work together – clergy, parents, staff and students – to provide the best education for every student in our care. I firmly believe that we are well placed to continue to provide a first class authentic Catholic education for the students of Trinity College.

Thank you to the Clergy My thanks are extended to Archbishop Hickey. We are truly blessed to have had an Archbishop who gave so generously of his time to Trinity College and we take this opportunity to wish him well in his retirement. In September we welcomed Archbishop Costelloe to Trinity College and we feel confident that we will share a similar relationship with him. I also thank Fra Oscar Aguilera who, as our College Chaplain, makes himself available for Masses, sacramental programs and retreats and his support and presence are greatly appreciated.

Colleagues farewell Mr Lal Bisnath at a morning tea held in his honour

College Board

On behalf of the Trinity College Board, I am pleased to report another very successful year for the school. Mr Christopher Sutherland (’81) Board Chair

We have seen outstanding results across all four educational pillars covering our faith, academic, cultural and sporting programs. With the major school building works and land purchase arrangements completed at the end of 2011, the Board has used the 2012 year to set in place the structure and capacity to reconsider the challenges and opportunities that the school may face in the future and how we best put in place strategies to ensure the continued growth and prosperity of Trinity.

Of high importance to the Board is to ensure the student community remains a reasonably broad cross-section of the WA community. To achieve this we must find further ways to support some families and students who may not otherwise be able to attend the school. This delivers significant educational benefits to all students as well as continuing the tradition of Edmund Rice.

14

With this in mind we have reinvigorated the Trinity College Foundation chaired by Mark Mony de Kerloy (’75) with a goal to build a capital base that can provide scholarships for future students, who without financial support, may not otherwise be able to attend Trinity. In particular, we have launched the Karrik Bursary for Australian Indigenous students. This Bursary targets individuals and corporations who wish to support the education of Indigenous youth and who may also provide vocational training support and apprenticeship opportunities. To date we have secured the support of four partners and plan to grow this support over the coming years. We established our Capital Strategic Planning Committee under the stewardship of John Driscoll (’79) to consider a range of opportunities and challenges facing Trinity over the next 20 years and to ultimately produce an updated master plan for the school by the end of 2013. This committee must consider a range of long-term factors, including substantial developments underway on our east and west boundaries and opportunities to develop the recently acquired land to the north; the significant forecast rise in population and traffic directly surrounding the campus and its impact on security; safety and student demographics; the rapid advancement of computing and online technology in delivering education and its impact on the size and shape of school facilities in the future. After a detailed tender and review of proposals received from a number of planners/architects, a firm has been appointed to work with the committee to develop the updated master plan.


Trinity College Board 2012 Back Row: Mr Greg Clune (EREA Regional Administrator), Mr Andrew Whitechurch, Mr Chris Sutherland (Chair), Mr Ivan Banks (Headmaster), Mr Andrew Watson Front Row: Mrs Margie Tannock, Br Kevin Paull, Mr Michael Burgess (Minute Secretary), Mr Tony Metcalf, Ms Jane Deykin-O’Dea Absent: Mr Chris Ellison, Mr John Driscoll

The Finance and Risk Committee has continued its work under the chairing of Andrew Whitechurch. This year the committee has focused on controlling expenditure, paying down some debt and monitoring the outcomes of the Gonski review and its possible impact on the school finances. In addition, the committee has worked with the school team to implement a risk management framework that mirrors the best practice in many major companies. This approach will increase the safety and security of the students and staff as well as protect the reputation and assets of Trinity.

I also thank the significant contribution of Ivan Banks as the executive on the Board and Michael Burgess as the board secretary. They perform their Board duties, often after hours, with efficiency and to a high standard whilst still managing the day to day operations of the school. Finally, I would like to thank all the staff members who make extra efforts every day to improve the experience of our students. I wish the Trinity community a Merry Christmas and a safe and rewarding 2013.

Throughout the year, the Board has been an active participant in dialogue with the school’s parent entity, Edmund Rice Education Australia (EREA). The Board fully supports the ideal of co-contribution where all schools in the EREA community contribute to support some of its member schools that may need extra financial support from time to time. However, the Board believes there is a limit to available support for funding of new growth initiatives and ongoing administration burden, and will work with both EREA and the Trinity community to ensure the right balance is achieved. I wish to thank all Board members for their significant and valued input this year; John Driscoll (’79), Andrew Whitechurch, Br Kevin Paull, Chris Ellison (’71), Margie Tannock, Tony Metcalf, Jane Deykin-O’Dea and Andrew Watson (‘83) all volunteer their time and expertise and together represent a body of knowledge that I believe no other school Board could match.

College Bursar

Trinity celebrated 50 years in 2012 and the passing of time has not been kind to a few of our buildings. Mr Michael Burgess Bursar

We are already dealing with issues of concrete cancer; an expensive exercise that will continue for several years. Although development has been occurring on two sides of Trinity College during 2012 we have managed to access our campus without too much disruption. Another science laboratory upgrade has been completed and the biology laboratory work will be done over the 2012/13 summer break. A new fence/wall has been constructed along the western perimeter and a new playground was developed to the east of the Junior School to give a natural shade area and a safer environment for the Junior School students. Further work was completed at Dwellingup (Camp Kelly) and we should see all development works completed in 2014.

In 2012 the Trinity College Board was pleased to present a budget that had a more modest tuition fee increase than previous years, averaging 7.4% over Years 4 to 12. With reduction in government funds Trinity now finances its operations through private income sources, which amounts to 57% of the total income. The Board is hopeful that this level of tuition fee can be maintained, notwithstanding the unknowns of future government education funding decisions.

16

I would like to acknowledge an increase in philanthropy during 2012 with contributions from various organisations for the benefit of our Indigenous Scholarship and Refugee Bursary programs. These organisations include Programmed, Colibri Pty Ltd, Office Max, TOBA, Trinity College Foundation, AIEF and IYLP. Together they have helped provide an education to 11 students and provided the services of a homework centre. This year the Trinity College Foundation launched its Refugee Bursary program with its first recipient in Year 7. This assistance will continue throughout this student’s time at Trinity, thus fulfilling the Trinity College Foundation objective to always ensure that Trinity can meet its commitments to the poor and marginalised. Although there have been some staff changes within Administration, Maintenance, Grounds, and amongst technicians, teacher assistants and at the IT Help Desk during 2012, the members of staff in these areas remain committed to assisting and supporting the education program at Trinity College. Without them the leadership team and the teachers would not be able to provide daily opportunities to our students; I thank them on your behalf. Mr Michael Burgess Bursar


This year the College was able to acquire land to the North of the College as part of its negotiations with the Metropolitan Redevelopment Authority

Commissioning of Special Ministers

Pastoral Care 25


Chaplain Who is a Chaplain? What is Chaplaincy? These are the questions that some parents and students have asked me recently. Obviously, there are a few versions on how the answer goes.

Fra Oscar Aguilera osm. Chaplain

Firstly, we had better check what Google says…“A chaplain is a person, generally a member of the clergy, who serves a group of people who are not formally organized as a mission, a parish, or a church, and who perform their duties by various attachments to military units, hospitals, prisons, schools, or other diverse organizations”. “Chaplaincy is a role that the chaplain holds by supporting those under his care as they walk the journey of life, a beacon of light.” Well I hope that helps a little. The main roles that I have at Trinity College are Liturgies, Retreats and being a sort of all round good guy!

Fra Oscar blesses Connor Budge (4B)

26

There are the Big Liturgies, such as the whole school celebrations, which involve a team of people trying to coordinate many different parts. The Year 12 Graduation Eucharist is one of my favourites, and one that every year is filled with mixed emotions, as new generations of students leave Trinity to enter the world as young men. The Small Liturgies, such as the different Year level Eucharists have a flavour of their own, as I slowly but surely get to know the students of different Years, Heads of Year, teachers, and the parents who grace us with their presence. It’s so nice to see that they feel part of what we do at Trinity College. The best part of Small Liturgies is when I celebrate for the Junior School; to hear them singing to their heart’s content is elating. Another part of my role as Chaplain is to participate in the different retreats run by Trinity College. I do enjoy them as I get to meet the students outside of the classroom and even the school setting. It is fantastic to see them in their individuality and wearing what they feel comfortable in. I do delight in taking part in the Kairos Retreat. Apart from being a very full-on and intense retreat, it is one that allows the young men to find themselves!


Above:  Commissioning of Special Ministers

However, most of my days are much like anyone else’s… unexpected visitors, a retreat to prepare, debrief to take, pastoral wander around Trinity to visit people who may need me, take a phone call, respond to messages, emails sent and received, comfort a crying student, make coffee and chat with staff, set-up/pack-down for Eucharist, prepare another Liturgy, talk about a policy, a person, an idea, stop, breathe, eat, pray, laugh around the table, avoid coffee, but stay focused. Then there’s the hospital visit, the home visit, read an interesting article, planning for 2013, making priest bookings, checking websites. Then another student, staff member, parent, friend drops in for advice, counselling, tissues, coffee. Sit with them and be present. Then all of a sudden the final bell rings out the end of the school day. I’m feeling happy that I walked with my brothers and sisters today, shared their lives, ideas, faith and coffee – in that order. Fra Oscar Aguilera osm. Chaplain

Indigenous Education

The Aboriginal Program at Trinity College is establishing itself as a successful and unique program. Mr Gary Malarkey (’70) Aboriginal Education Officer/Teacher

We have had a fantastic year with many developments, spectacular events and success stories. I have thoroughly enjoyed my year in this program and I am pleased to be back at Trinity College having been seconded to the Catholic Education Office last year. Ms Karrene McLernon, an experienced English teacher, has assisted me with the program and together we make a fabulous team. We have an excellent rapport with the staff and students and the students are thriving in our community. With a team from various Catholic schools, both rural and local, Ms Karrene McLernon and I went on a tour to New South Wales to learn about the implementation of Personalised Learning Plans (PLPs) for Indigenous students. This proved very enlightening as we had the privilege of visiting schools that have extensive experience with PLPs.

The results were amazing. The high level of commitment by students, teachers and the community was definitely evident. We have started to implement PLPs for our Years 7, 8 and 9 and so far the process has been very positive. We look forward to revisiting, in early 2013, the goals that the boys have set for themselves.

We have introduced a new initiative for our Aboriginal students to enable them to recognise their achievements each term. The initiative is called The Gold Club and promotes academic achievement, encouraging our students to work hard and achieve to the best of their ability. We have two certificates GOLD member and SILVER member. We tally the students’ results at the end of each term in the areas of Effort, Behaviour, Organisation, Academic Grade and Punctuality. The students are awarded a certificate and a morning tea with Headmaster Mr Banks. The students really enjoy this and as always we feel it’s great to acknowledge those students who are striving to achieve. The Indigenous Youth Leadership Program (IYLP) proudly sponsors some of our students. These sponsorships are greatly appreciated and ensure that our Aboriginal students have every opportunity to realise their potential. We have been successful in acquiring another six scholarships for our students this year that will be accessible for 2013. This year six students benefited greatly from these scholarships as they were involved in the orientation program early in the year at UWA, providing them with the opportunity to run through literacy and goal setting programs as well as team building activities. Angela Murphy and Allan Beattie attended our NAIDOC assembly and were thoroughly impressed with our students and our Indigenous Program.

Trinity College is working closely with the Australian Indigenous Education Foundation (AIEF), which is providing support to Kieren Wheelock (10.2). Kieran came to us from Newman, is boarding at Cooinda in Mt Lawley, and is thoroughly enjoying his time at Trinity. The AIEF is directing us to approach families in the Pilbara region to offer scholarships to prospective students for 2013. Representatives from AIEF, Renee Coffey, Margaret Gilroy and Birrillee Vale, attended our NAIDOC assembly and they too were suitably impressed by the talent and dedication of our students. Our program is offering many opportunities for the boys to become actively involved in the cultural aspects of Trinity life. The Mooditj Dance Theatre and the didgeridoo group Didge Boys have been generating some fabulous performances. These groups performed brilliantly at

Music recording at Steve Richter’s studio for the boys’ dance at NAIDOC and Presentation Night

St Columba and Embleton primary schools, and they were very well received by their peers at the NAIDOC assembly. Steve Richter, our didgeridoo instructor and Ruth Bott, our dance choreographer, took the boys to Steve’s recording studio in Fremantle and recorded the boys playing the didge, cajons and their voices. They used their music to coordinate the dance for their performance at the NAIDOC assembly. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Ruth Bott for working tirelessly with our boys and for producing an empowering, cultural and professional dance routine. I would also like to thank Steve Richter for his genuine enthusiasm whilst working with our boys on the didgeridoos and the cajons. The feedback from staff, parents and the wider community has been extremely positive and the boys involved should be immensely proud of their efforts and energy for the practice involved and the performances.

Indigenous Education We were fortunate to have Jack (Mark) Johnson (’71) attend our NAIDOC assembly as guest speaker. He was an excellent speaker and promoted the importance of education, irrespective of what age you are. He went back to university at the age of 48 to study law. His message was simple as he encouraged the boys to take one small step to help Aboriginal people. Our students continue to be involved with SMYL and four of our current Year 10 students are doing their CERT I in leadership. Brodie Hunter (12.2) was awarded an opportunity to attend an induction for a Law program at the University of New South Wales and Frank Mannel (11.4) went to the Australian Defence Force Indigenous Study Tour in Canberra. Both students found these experiences very rewarding. We continue to successfully run our homework classes and some of our boys have benefited greatly from the Sound Way Literacy Program and Quicksmart Maths that are run in the Mary Rice Centre. Our Weekly PCG enables us to catch up and consolidate our program and keep the boys on task and connected to one another. Most of our boys represented Trinity College in the PSA Athletics carnival and special mention goes to Nixon Hamlet (10.4) and Nelson Waite (9.7) who did exceptionally well. We congratulate all the boys for their efforts on the day.

I would like to thank Headmaster Mr Ivan Banks, for his continued support of our wonderful program, and Ms Sam Pekaar and Ms Karrene McLernon for their production of ‘Good Yarning’. To all the teachers who assist the boys in the Homework Program throughout the year; and to all of our sponsors AIEF, IYLP, AES, SMYL, Leightons and AFL SportsReady. Special thanks to the Aboriginal boys for their efforts this year and may they continue to make the most of their opportunities here at Trinity College. Ms Karrene McLernon and I have really enjoyed developing the program, which continues to grow in a positive direction each year. Next year we welcome five new students.

TOBA President’s Report

This year we celebrated 50 years of Trinity College and through the assistance of the Trinity Old Boys’ Association the Trinity Spirit continues to grow and thrive. Mr Darren Taggart (’83) President Trinity Old Boys’ Association

As President of the association, this year I have seen a lot of development with TOBA, welcoming our new members from the Class of ’12 and continuing celebrations with Old Boys and friends of the wider Trinity College community. The new upgraded TOBA website www.toba.net.au was implemented in September and will act as our general public enquiries platform whilst allowing Old Boys to link from the website to the TOBA members area. TOBA actively participates in all social media including Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, LinkedIn and Instagram and links to these can also be found on www.toba.net.au. This not only keeps Old Boys updated on events and what’s going on within our community, but also allows for instantaneous interaction amongst past students. Thank you to Paul Abrahams (‘95), Heath Properjohn and Damian Katich (‘95) of Loaded Communications and all from the Class of ‘95 for their efforts in re-designing; they have been a wonderful support to the association for many years now.

For Trinity College’s 50th year a grand reunion saw over 500 Old Boys from many generations in attendance at RICKATACKA! 2012 held on campus on 22 September. All came with pride and fond memories of their time at Trinity, taking great pleasure in seeing old classmates, Christian Brothers and teachers. A mix of classic covers performed by the TOBA All Stars Band brought people onto the dance floor, their set ending with a rousing rendition of In Nomine Domini that included the voices of every Old Boy in attendance, as did the singing of Happy Birthday when Brother Kelly’s 92nd birthday, which fell on the same evening, was celebrated with a cake. Several of the Christian Brothers were interviewed by past Headmaster Tony Curtis (’56) with stories of CBC Perth and Trinity College being shared. Three Honour Boards dedicated to Old Boys who were either killed in action or remain missing in action were proudly presented by TOBA to Trinity. Gibney Hall was filled with silence in acknowledgement of fellow Old Boys who made the ultimate sacrifice in service of their country. These Honour Boards will be mounted in the Chapel for all to see. The association is indebted to the hard work and commitment of Vice-President Terry Jones (‘70), committeeman John Hansen (‘56) and Mrs Robyn Jennison who is a stalwart of Trinity College. LEST WE FORGET! TOBA continues to play a major part in the day to day life of Trinity and the wider community, hosting an array of reunions throughout the year, with many classes choosing to celebrate their reunion at RICKATACKA! 2012. One of these was the Class of ’85 led by their Head Boy Anthony Battaglia (’85). They were seen waving their ’85 flag before it mysteriously disappeared, rumoured to be held hostage by the Class of ‘89! No ransom note has yet been received. Stay tuned for further developments.

TOBA President’s Report In December 2012, TOBA hosted the inaugural Sydney interstate reunion and the second Melbourne reunion for Old Boys who are currently living or visiting in those areas. The events were highly successful. The Golden Heritage Club is an exclusive group of Old Boys who graduated from Trinity College/CBC Perth 50 or more years ago. The most recent event held by our proud Golden Heritage Club was a tour of the CBC icons scattered throughout the Trinity College campus. My thanks go to our tour guides Ray Kosovich (‘76) and Tony Maxfield (’79). Our TOBA Winter Sports Day was again a major success and very well patronised. This event sees Old Boys and current Trinity students competing in rugby, football, soccer, hockey and cross-country with the winner of the majority of these sports claiming the much coveted Brendan Ryan (’91) Cup. The current Trinity students were overall winners. This year we hosted our very first TOBA Summer Sports Day, which included cricket, rowing, water polo, basketball, volleyball and tennis. Given the high calibre of sportsmen who have represented Trinity in their chosen sport and later at elite levels, deciding on the names of the trophies for the individual sports was not an easy task. After much deliberation the individual summer sport trophies were named in honour of the following Old Boys: Cricket Rowing Water Polo Basketball Volleyball Tennis

Golden Heritage Club gathering; John Goodman (‘55) with Marcus Duncan (6G)

Simon Katich (‘92) Ben Cureton (‘98) Antony Matkovich (‘94) Joel Wagner (‘04) Andrew Lillywhite (‘08) Phil Hinton (‘84)

The trophy for the overall winner was named after our current Director of Sport, Steve Leahy (‘78), a worthy recipient.

For me, attending the Junior School Assembly on the last Friday of each month to present the TOBA Presidents Award for Trinity College Spirit is always a pleasure. This award is presented to a Junior School student who displays the qualities that best represent the famous Trinity Spirit in the areas of academics, sport, music, faith and social activities. I extend my congratulations to all 2012 winners and look forward to continuing with the presentation of this award in 2013. I would like to thank Mark Hackett (‘75) and his staff for their kind support and invitation to TOBA to become involved as much as possible in the life of the Junior School. Being involved 34

in the Executive Committee for as long as I have has afforded me the great privilege and pleasure to see students arrive at Trinity as wide-eyed Year 4 students then nine years later graduate in Year 12 and join us as proud members of TOBA. On 25 October at the TOBA Graduation Breakfast, in a tradition that celebrates the graduation from Trinity student to proud member of TOBA, the Class of ’12 exchanged their Trinity College ties for their TOBA ties. In a memorable speech that captured his fond experiences at Trinity College, guest speaker Michael Anghie (’87), Managing Partner of Ernst & Young’s Western Region and Business Unit Director for its Transaction Advisory Services businesses, addressed the crowd of students, staff, friends and family. Following Assembly, the Class of ’12 performed the famous Trinity College Rumble in Centenary Park, a tradition that has been occurring for many years! There is never a dry eye amongst the parents on seeing their sons perform the Rumble for the last time as a student. More recently, TOBA hosted a Sundowner in the new staff lounge at Trinity. This event was to thank all who have participated, helped and supported the association throughout the year. Drinks, food, music and laughs were shared by a group of over 100 attendees on a lovely summer afternoon, extending into the evening in typical TOBA fashion; when is a function finish time not really a finish time? When it’s a TOBA function! The strength of TOBA has been established through the hard work of the TOBA Executive Committee and in particular our Executive Officer, Ms Diane Millar. I would like to thank each of these individuals for their dedication and contribution to the association. It is this body of people who uphold TOBA’s mission: to continue the Trinity Spirit beyond graduation, and I am grateful for their valuable work. The Trinity Old Boys’ Association is a legally incorporated entity in its own right; however, to run the association merely as a business would only serve to cheapen its true value. We should never lose sight of our core values and the reason for our existence. We are in the business of people! Whilst any organisation needs to ensure it correctly crosses the T’s and dots the I’s, the main focus of TOBA must be continuing to develop strong bonds between our members and our future members – today’s current student body – and between TOBA and Trinity College. We all need to be ever vigilant and guard against losing sight of our goals. Our business is in promoting camaraderie amongst our membership and providing support, assistance and protection to Trinity College by whatever means possible, according to our motto Keeping the Spirit Alive.

Parent Council The Parent Council continued its endeavours in creating community spirit within the Trinity community, a task made easier by the willingness of so many parents and staff to assist when it’s time for the work to be done.

It is truly a wonderful experience to be a part of the thriving TC community, and I thank all members of the Parent Council for their support and contribution to a school that continues to flourish.

This year Parent Council again hosted the Annual Parent Ball, with Gibney Hall transformed into the world of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by the hardworking Year 12 parents. We also held our Annual Sundowner to welcome parents, both new and old, to the new school year. The evening was well attended and a great success. We held a Sundowner for Year 7 parents to welcome them to Trinity College and this was another successful evening.

Mr Malcolm Harris Chair Person

Later in the year the Parent Council hosted a seminar for parents with Trinity Old Boy and past Dux of College Dr Ian Lillico (’69) addressing 500 parents in Gibney Hall for an inspiring, engaging and informative talk. Parent Council also took on the task of project managing the upgrade of the kitchen in the Foley Centre and donated new portable BBQs for use by the whole TC community. We welcomed new members Sally John, Sonya Mahoney and Julie Fazey to the Parent Council Committee and extend a heartfelt thank you to outgoing members Miriam Fogliani and Lee Loughnan. All of these parents truly embody the TC Spirit and we thank them for their service to our community.

Canteen Visitors to Trinity College have commented that we have an extremely well appointed canteen and how lucky the boys are. Our canteen staff work very hard to give the Trinity boys food they will enjoy, and it’s nice when they take the time to say ‘Thanks’. Good manners are often observed and always appreciated in the canteen. However, the canteen has struggled this year, as have all volunteer based units, and we are once again losing long-term parent volunteers with the graduation of their Year 12 sons from Trinity College. In particular, our busiest day, Monday, is the day of least availability of volunteers. We are looking forward to meeting new volunteers amongst the Trinity families of 2013. Our current volunteers include the twins Cora and Dora; one sings and the other just laughs a lot. The canteen volunteers enjoy lots of laughs and a great deal of fun, so please come and join in, even if only for a few hours. You can find out more about volunteering in the canteen from the Canteen Manager, Mrs Carol Watson on 9223 8139. Mrs Carol Watson Canteen Manager 36

College Auxiliary This year, our 50th anniversary added another dimension to life at Trinity College and as always the College Auxiliary was there to provide support at many of the events held in celebration of this milestone.

In addition to the Jubilee celebrations, we assisted at many other traditional Trinity events throughout the year. Two such events were the Grandparents’ Morning Tea and our Guest Speaker Morning Tea. This year’s guest speaker Dr Michelle Ammerer, a leading interventional cardiologist, entertained us with stories of her journey from her student days at Mercedes College to her studies following school, to life as a busy working mother, while

also delivering an important message about heart health. Due to our fundraising efforts at the Morning Tea, we were able to make contributions to Trinity College and our boys in many ways, both large and small. Another traditional event is our Melbourne Cup Luncheon, this year co-hosted with the Mercedes College P&F. This proved to be a fantastic initiative, with friends and families from both colleges enjoying a great afternoon together.

College Auxiliary In addition we also held our Ladies Long Lunch & Sculptures by the Sea, a Day at the Races and Spring in the Valley. We held a Cupcakes and Cuvee evening with Trinity College parent Helene Feasey demonstrating the finer points of cupcake decorating. Another very successful event was a weekend away for Trinity mothers at Camp Kelly, which is sure to become an annual event! My thanks to our outgoing office bearers for 2012: Kathryn Taggart (Treasurer), Fiona Pecorari (Assistant Treasurer), Stacey Kannis (Junior School Vice-President) and Annabel Gillespie (Kitchen Coordinator). Thanks also go to new and continuing office bearers: Rita Rocca (Vice-President), Stacey Kannis (Treasurer), Kim Rees (Kitchen Coordinator), and Nicola Gosatti (Junior School Vice-President), with a special mention to our wonderful Secretary Lee Loughnan who continues to quietly and efficiently get the job done, year after year. It’s with sadness that we farewell longstanding committee member and

My heartfelt thanks go to the wonderful ladies on the College Auxiliary Committee who are always there when there’s work to be done. Being a part of this wonderful group of women is truly a highlight of my time as a Trinity parent. Mrs S Maher President

Valedictory Address “ Good character is not given to us. We have to build it piece by piece. By thought, choice, courage, and determination.” Jordan Randazzo (12.7) Head Prefect

Tonight is a momentous occasion, which marks the conclusion of our 50th prestigious year at the East Perth site. Tonight we gather as the extended community to celebrate the success of Trinity College as a whole, as well as the individual efforts and achievements of the students from all Year levels. This year as we celebrate our 50th anniversary we proudly continue the Trinity legacy. The Trinity legacy has been passed on since 1894 and was created through the influence of Edmund Rice. Edmund Rice defined what it was to be a true man for others in his actions and work for the poor. We as a college share an innate sense of pride as we carry out the actions of Edmund Rice in our everyday lives.

To succeed in life is to take the journey that challenges you to grow into the person you wish to be. A key to our success is having the intangible Trinity spirit; the instinct to place others ahead of yourself, the desire to reach your highest potential and willingness to support your fellow peers, are all examples of what defines the TC spirit. This is unique, and it is what distinguishes those with true character from those merely concerned with reputation. The Trinity Spirit was originally recognised in the actions of Edmund Rice, and now lies embedded in the hearts of Trinity men. It is our strong sense of character and proud tradition that makes Trinity College the envy of other schools. Trinity is so much more than an education. It turns boys into men, it creates an ongoing sense of brotherhood, and develops each individual student into a man of character who has the power to make a difference. No matter where we may end up, our experience of Trinity and the Trinity Spirit can never be taken from us. Trinity College has equipped us with the skills and knowledge to overcome the many and varied challenges that lie ahead. I believe it is vital to always remember that what lies behind us and what lies before us are small matters when compared to what lies within us. And I can guarantee that what lies within every student who passes through this great college is the unique Trinity Spirit. The future is ours to make of it what we want and no matter where our future may lead, let everything be accomplished In Nomine Domine. This year, we as a community, excelled across our Four Pillars of Faith, Culture, Sport and Academics, and whether it was the achievements of the Indian pilgrims, our third straight year of winning the Hamer cup or ninth consecutive Zenith award, we as a college achieved these feats. However, it was not in times of victory when we stood with humility, but at times of defeat when we held our heads high and graciously accepted defeat that we


Valedictory Address As a younger student I would pass through the days at Trinity oblivious to the idea that in only a matter of years I would be moving on and graduating. This day has come upon us so fast, and to leave the Trinity grounds after five years is extremely difficult. Yet as I stand here tonight I can humbly say it has been a privilege to have shared the past years with my brothers from the class of 2012. So, to my fellow classmates, I would like to thank each of you for the experience you have enabled me to have, and wish you success in all your future endeavours. It is an honour to stand beside you as we graduate. I hope Trinity has had the immense and influential impact on each of you that it has had on me, and I am fortunate for the opportunity to have met such fine men. I believe us to be a distinctive group of gentlemen who display an intense strength of character, and have always worn the Trinity crest with the highest level of pride. Mr Banks presents Jordan Randazzo with the Christian Brothers’ Medal at Presentation Night

shone. Each student would stand tall wearing the three prestigious crowns with pride, because each individual whether on the sporting field, in a classroom or within an auditorium, knew that they had given every last effort for their college.

As I stand here, I have the utmost pride to say I am a Trinity man in times of victory and defeat. We as individuals would not be where we are today if not for the endless efforts of so many others around us. On this note and on behalf of the class of 2012, I would like to take this opportunity to thank our parents and guardians. You are a continuous inspiration to us all. It is the many sacrifices you have made that have provided us with the opportunity to attend Trinity College and we thank you for this. To the Trinity teachers and staff, we thank you for your selfless efforts that you have committed each and every day to assure us the best possible education. We especially thank you for the relationships and friendships we as a Year group have built with you allowing each of us to experience the finest of Trinity College. I also extend my sincere thanks to the Deputy Head Prefect Jeremy Ciccarelli (12.3) and my fellow prefects. Your leadership and guidance throughout this year has been exceptional, and we thank you for the pride and commitment you have shown to this great college.

In the words of the American Author, Jackson Brown Jr: “Good character is not given to us. We have to build it piece by piece. By thought, choice, courage, and determination.” Together we have built, piece by piece, the spirited good character of this graduating class. We have forged friendships that will last a lifetime, created unbreakable bonds, and left an eternal and everlasting legacy that will be the class of 2012. Thank you and God bless.

Year 12

The 23 November 2012 signalled the end of the WACE exams and subsequently the final chapter in what has been 12 years of schooling for the class of 2012. Mr Andrew Osnain Head of Year 12

The students were steadfast in their mission to make a mark in their senior year at Trinity College, and have successfully accomplished that feat. The year began with the students welcoming the Year 7s. This involved organising and running a lunchtime BBQ for 400 people. With the help of the prefects and volunteers, the right foundation was set for the year and the boys never looked back. The Senior Ball proved for many students to be the highlight of the year. The students selected ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ as the theme, and throughout Term 1 and the Term 1 holidays, under the expert guidance of our Parent Ball Committee, Gibney Hall was transformed into a scene of wonder and amazement. Special thanks must go to all committee members and volunteers who spent countless hours and weekends making the theme come to life. On the sporting field the students pushed themselves to breaking point in all sports, with success coming in the form of improved personal bests, results and amazing levels of fitness. Congratulations to all teams who represented Trinity with distinction and honour. Special mention to the 1st XI soccer team who won the Lawe Davies Cup, and the rowing community for excellent combined results from Years 9-12 to win the Hamer Cup. Thank you to all the coaches of the senior sporting teams. The Year 12 students have appreciated your dedication and commitment, and have enjoyed the relationships fostered through each training session and fixture.

In 2012 there were a number of sporting tours that involved our senior students; a basketball tour to the USA, cricket to Brisbane, rowing to Europe and soccer to Singapore and Malaysia. It is through such opportunities that our students gain real life experiences that shape their positive outlook on life and involvement in the wider community. In December 2011 a select group of our then Year 11 students participated in the India Pilgrimage. The students who were part of this special experience brought back with them a determined drive to make a difference, and were instrumental in helping the Year group to really appreciate and make the most of the opportunities Trinity has to offer. All students attended the TABGHA retreat, and many others were involved in the KAIROS retreats, as well as the Quest Retreat as Cadre members, Senior Ministers, Special Ministers of the Eucharist and countless hours of community service. It is through their actions that the students actively demonstrate the Trinity College maxim to be ‘men for others’. On behalf of the Class of 2012 I would like to thank the Pastoral Care Group teachers, Ms Kathryn Down 12.1, Ms Amanda Marocchi 12.2, Mr Brett Silver 12.3, Ms Karrene McLernon and Ms Lissa Coleman 12.4, Mr Paul Van Vliet 12.5, Ms Claudia Swensen 12.6 and Mr Anthony Lunt 12.7 for an outstanding year. The level of dedication and effort afforded to making the year such a success is testament to the commitment and professionalism of both the Pastoral Care Group teachers and the staff at Trinity College alike.

I wish the students in the Class of 2012 all the best in whatever the future may hold. It has been both a privilege and an honour to be involved with these fine young men over the past three years. Never forget the lessons learnt at school and hold close the friendships forged at Trinity College. Mr Andrew Osnain Head of Year 12

Year 11 Being Head of Year 11 in 2012 has been a very rewarding experience. Having been with these boys for two years, I have a much better insight into what is going on in their lives and it has been much easier for me to help or counsel them when needed. Ms Leanne Wilson Head of Year 11

The change from Year 10 to Year 11 is quite hard for many boys as the expectations with respect to academic rigour is increased significantly from Year 10 and, for the first time in their lives, what they do in a classroom and the results they attain has a tangible effect on what career they may choose in the future. In terms of social events this year, the boys had a river cruise with Mercedes in March, and hosted and organised a social in September. The boys used this event to raise more than $2000 for cancer research. Both of these social events were highly successful and the behaviour of the boys was excellent on each occasion.

Once again, as a group the Year 11s have proven to be highly motivated and committed to Trinity College, in particular the Christian Service programs. During 2012 approximately 70 boys have volunteered their own time to participate in many of the Christian Service programs offered by Campus Ministry, including Red Cross Soup Patrol, Freeway Bike Hike, City to Surf Fun Run, Anzac Day Parade, Winter Sleepout and many more. There was also an overabundance of volunteers to be Peer Ministers this year and the number of volunteers to be members of Cadre, Senior Ministers and Special Ministers of the Eucharist for 2013 has been staggering. I must recognise Zac Rhodes (11.5) publicly for his efforts this year. Zac raised $10 000 for cancer research when he took part in a Perth to Mandurah Bike Hike. This is an outstanding effort and the time he took to raise this money must have been significant. 62

The participation rates of boys in the senior school, and especially 1st sporting teams and music ensembles is also exceptional. In fact, many of the recipients of awards at Presentation Night for these teams and ensembles were Year 11s. In 2012, Year 11s have also participated in many extracurricular academic activities; the Philosothon with Thomas Coltrona top student in the State, the SmARTs program at UWA, extra study courses at Curtin University, debating with two senior teams entered, and Sheldon Russell (11.3) will represent WA in the National Mathematics Summer School in Canberra in January 2013. Ryan Soares (11.7) won the 2012 Gemini School Astronomy Contest with his image proposal being accepted by the Gemini Observatory Committee. At $50,000 an hour to operate this telescope, this is a significant win. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Mr Joseph Tamigi (’99) who took over my job in third term while I was on long service leave. He did an outstanding job of keeping the boys in line and making sure that everything ran smoothly while I was away. It is a very difficult job to take on for only one term. Thanks must also go to the Year 11 PCG teachers, Mr Peter Oliver, Mr Joseph Tamigi (’99), Ms Susie Edwards, Mr Mark Dodd, Mrs Maria White, Mr Richard Trend (’69), Mr Dale Wetherill, Mr Paul Appleton and Mr Adam Kealley. Many of these teachers have been with these boys for a number of years, which makes for a very caring environment for the boys. I truly look forward to continuing with this group into their final year and am confident that if they continue into Year 12 with the same attitude and exuberance they have shown in the past two years they will be highly successful and remembered as a Year group that truly made a positive difference to both the Trinity and wider communities.

Year 10 As another new year approaches, the Year 10s will graduate into their first year as Senior School students. The challenges that they now face require both a mature and responsible attitude as well as a deeper commitment to their school life. Mr Bobby Emmanuel Head of Year 10

During Term 1, the Year 10s assisted the Quest Retreat by volunteering as ‘roadies’. They were responsible for setting up and packing up, assisting the leaders with the cans of food and running a barbeque. The Quest Retreat is one of the most important events in the broader scope of a Trinity student’s life and it was great to see so many boys volunteer to give something back to Trinity and ensure that the Year 8s had an enjoyable experience. The social calendar kicked off with a ten-pin bowling session with Mercedes College. Many excited students took to the lanes in a bowling frenzy to knock over sets of white pins and, in the process, there was some strong natural talent revealed by both schools. The main social event of the year was the Trinity/Mercedes social in Term 3. The theme this year was ‘Haunted House’ and many zombies, ghosts, ghouls and witches (with the appropriate amount of fake blood applied) took to the floor to dance the night away. Even the appearance of the mysterious ‘Slender’ didn’t deter the students from having a good time. Every week throughout the term the Year 10s participated in a Personal Development & Wellbeing (PDW) course. The main components of PDW are to cover the theory component of the WA driver’s licence, information technology, careers information and coping/resilience strategies. Students also participated in Christian Service when they went out into the community and spent time with those less fortunate than themselves. As part of the academic program, all Year 10s were issued with an Apple MacBook. This gave them the opportunity to have access to the Internet, word processing and

spreadsheet tools. In a real world situation, students will probably have to use a laptop as part of their daily routine and this part of the academic program gives them the opportunity to develop better IT skills and train themselves to use IT appropriately in a mature manner. In Term 1, all Pastoral Care Groups went through an election process and student representatives were chosen. The role of these students is to represent the opinions of their peers and assist in broader Trinity activities. These councillors have the potential to be excellent leaders and I encourage them all to seek out broader leadership roles next year. Special mention goes to Daniel Larratt (10.5) who received the Head of Year Award for his outstanding contributions to Trinity College. Spiritually, the Year 10s earnest participation in the whole school and Year level masses was admirable. The Emmaus retreat celebrates the past, present and future paths of the boys’ lives. They were also encouraged to contemplate the sacrifices that have been made for them and how they can become more compassionate adults. The boys are also to be commended on their willingness to participate in Unfair Day. The amount of effort put in by the Year 10 cohort to organise a stall, activities and help raise money for the poor in India was outstanding. Many Year 10 students benefit from the outstanding music department at Trinity. This year there were a number of students whose fine voices made up the Senior Chorale and were also instrumental in winning the Therese Temby Award for Sacred Choral Music at the Catholic Performing Arts Festival. In closing I would like to offer my sincere thanks to the Year 10 Pastoral Care Group teachers, Ms Basilio, Ms Pontre, Mr Van Dongen, Mr Hailes and Mr Theseira. Their generosity, care for the boys and commitment to Trinity is unquestionable. I appreciate all that they have contributed to the pastoral development of the Year 10 boys over the school year. Mr Bobby Emmanuel Head of Year 10 69

Year 9

Year 9 in 2012 has been packed full of wonderful experiences for our students. Mr Brendan Chapman Head of Year 9

The focus for this Year group is to achieve excellence in as many of the Four Pillars as possible and it is wonderful to reflect on the performance of many Year 9 students to see them engaged and participating in many facets in the life of Trinity College. The Year 9 cohort has truly embraced the Trinity’s Christian Service program by demonstrating their commitment to the various initiatives throughout the wider community. Some of the highlights of the program include providing breakfast and support in local primary schools, working in soup kitchens, supporting workers at City Farm, and participating in events such as the Winter Sleepout. Many of our students joined their fathers in a morning of service at Waterford Playing Fields at our Year 9 Dads and Lads morning, which proved to be a wonderful community building initiative. The Realising Your Potential Experience was a truly incredible experience for those individuals who wished to challenge themselves further. At times the experience was very confronting for the students, designed to test the limits of personalities both as individuals and in a team context. Other highlights of 2012 included the Year 9 Galilee Retreat. This is an integral experience in the life of a Year 9 Trinity College student, designed to help our cohort further understand the role that God and faith play in their everyday life. Year 9 marks the beginning of the annual ballroom dancing lessons for our students. This started out as a bit of fun and social dance with the boys attempting to coordinate hip and feet movement in order to replicate some sort of dance move (whilst the girls dance gracefully around them), 76

but quickly transgressed into something far more serious as the competitive nature of the boys took over and the quest to become Year 9s best dancer was on! The dance lesson series at Gilkisons and Mercedes came to fruition with the penultimate evening on the Trinity College social calendar, the 1950s ‘Rock Around the Clock’ Ballroom Dancing Social at Mercedes College. The usual awkward and tentative behaviour in the early hours of the evening was quickly replaced by spellbinding and charismatic dance moves as well-rehearsed students from both schools shuffled and twisted their way through the evening. I would like to thank the Year 9 Pastoral Care Group teachers, Mr Jean Marc Roussett and Mr David Ceccarelli (9.1), Mr David Hankin (9.2), Mrs Rhiannon Lodge (9.3), Mr Michael Murphy (9.4), Ms Elise Kukulka (9.5), Mr Tony Webb (9.6) and Mr. Ken O’Neil (9.7). The commitment to challenge and care for our students has been integral to the continued formation of these students as a Year group.

Upon reflection, Year 9 has certainly been a significant transition for our students into the greater responsibilities of being a young man. The challenges and experiences shared over the middle schooling years have now provided a sturdy foundation for a successful transition into the senior years. Greater expectations will follow for our students in Year 10, but I am very proud of the achievements of our cohort thus far and wish the Class of 2015 well as their journey continues at Trinity College. Mr Brendan Chapman Head of Year 9

Year 8 The Year 8 cohort has had another successful year, establishing themselves within the Trinity College community. Having survived the changes and challenges of Year 7, the boys are now fully accustomed to life as secondary students at Trinity College. Mr Tim Shanassy Head of Year 8

In Term 1 all students attended the annual Quest Retreat. This was a continuation of the work that was begun in 2011 as part of the Faith Formation program and induction into the traditions and expectations of being a Trinity College student. The Year 8s were ably led by the Year 11 Peer Ministers through various memorable experiences such as the Canned Food Drive, going to the Peer Ministers’ homes, spending time with their ‘big sisters’ from Mercedes College and exploring further where God exists in their lives. Thank you to the Year 12 Cadre who ran the retreat under the guidance of Miss Down and Mr Murray. Thanks also to the Year 10 ‘roadies’ who assisted throughout the weekend. The Year 8 boys have participated in two social events with the Mercedes College girls. In Term 1 the boys were hosted by the Mercedes girls and took part in an afternoon games session. In Term 3, the Year 8 community came together to host the Mercedes girls at a ‘Countries of the Olympics’ themed evening. This was a fantastic event, where all the students had a great time as they sampled food from various countries and then danced the night away. One very important event was the Year 8 Grandparents’ Morning Tea, which was held during Term 2. The Year 8 students welcomed over 400 grandparents and the boys took their guests on a short tour of the Trinity College facilities – a real ‘eye-opener’ for a few grandfathers who are now third generation Old Boys from The Terrace. The students and their guests then enjoyed some outstanding musical performances by Year 8 students before being treated to a delicious morning tea in Gibney Hall, provided by our Auxiliary.

During Term 3, the inaugural Year 8 Father Son camp was held at Trinity and included a five-a-side soccer tournament on Mann Oval, handball in Carrigg Court and a movie in Gibney Hall. Sunday morning saw the bleary-eyed campers tucking into a huge BBQ breakfast, with the chance for a quiet father son walk by the river. It is hoped this will be the first of many such camps where our community comes together and shares positive experiences whilst building lasting bonds. This year the Year 8s adopted a charity to help raise money for Wheelchairs for Kids. Br Ollie Picket came in to meet and talk to the Year 8 boys, explaining his mission. As a result, the boys collected ring-pulls and held other fundraising events to raise well in excess of $2000, which they presented to Brother Ollie. In terms of academics, the Year 8s continue to develop the skills and processes that will see them become lifelong learners. Students continue to excel in their studies and have been recognised by their teachers at assemblies as well as in State and national competitions. On the sporting field the students continue to embody the important virtues of sportsmanship, camaraderie and persistence when representing Trinity. It has been very pleasing to see many of our students selected to play representative sport outside of school. The Year 8 boys have been blessed to have the support of an excellent group of Pastoral Care teachers; Mr Michael Brook (8.1), Mr Barry McKenna (8.2), Mr Christopher Allanson (8.3), Mr Richard Hermon (8.4), Miss Joanne Sullivan and Mr Riccardo Carbone (8.5), Mr Lal Bisnath and Mr David Ceccarelli (8.6) and Mr Phil Purvis and Mr Joe Tamigi (8.7). The commitment demonstrated by this group of teachers has been outstanding and the care they have for our students is of the highest standard. It has been another fantastic year and I look forward with great anticipation to continuing this journey with this fine group of young men. Mr Tim Shanassy Head of Year 8 83

Year 7

Making the difficult and at times daunting move from primary school to high school is always a challenge for Year 7s and their families, and 2012 proved to be no exception. Mr Jim Shackleton Head of Year 7

This transition throws up many challenges during the course of the year as students grow more comfortable in their surroundings and develop in maturity and knowledge whilst discovering new opportunities and developing life-long friendships. The students quickly became aware of and accustomed to the extra responsibility expected with being on a senior campus, and engaged in the various elements of the Four Pillars of Trinity College life. Students became involved with the many co-curricular activities available such as Campus Ministry, Debating, Guys in Groove, Sport, Music, Performing Arts and Pipes and Drums, whilst engrossing themselves in the traditional core subjects and a rotation of elective subjects. Our students attended the Becoming Brothers Retreat, which is an induction experience where students are first exposed to the many traditions and expectations of being a Trinity College student. The retreat is integrated with a camp, of which the main aim is to demonstrate to the students that God lives within each of us in ordinary moments of our lives. The retreat commenced and concluded in the Trinity College Chapel with an inspirational ceremony conducted by the Year 12 Senior Ministers. The program was varied and included many small and large group activities such as the morning and evening ‘big brother’ time. In small groups, students discussed the challenges that may lay ahead, the adversity that had been overcome throughout the day, and a tangible level of Christian spirit that students and their peers lived out throughout the retreat. Other activities on the retreat included hiking sections of the Bibbulmun Track, raftbuilding to test teamwork and initiative, and canoeing along the Murray River. The Pastoral Care Group teachers helped lead a very challenging quiz night, whilst the final night in 90

Dwellingup saw all the Year 7s involved in the PCG Challenge. During 2012 the students were engaged and extended throughout a variety of cultural and pastoral experiences. Our Year 7s met socially with the Mercedes girls on two occasions, starting with a ‘meet and greet’ BBQ and games afternoon in our own Centenary Park in Term 1. In Term 3 Trinity hosted a highly successful evening social in Gibney Hall. The manner in which the students embraced the spirit of the night impressed staff and students from both Trinity and Mercedes. Academically many of our students achieved Distinctions and High Distinctions throughout the year in mathematics and science competitions whilst other students have demonstrated their talents at various performing arts and music performances. Our students learned to embrace technology and discovered some of its pitfalls in the classroom with continuation of our one-to-one laptop program. On the sporting field the boys continued to uphold Trinity’s reputation for fair play, teamwork and commitment. Our Year 7s made significant contributions to the PSA athletics and swimming teams whilst many of our students formed part of very successful summer and winter sporting teams. I would like to thank the Year 7 Pastoral Care Group teachers, Ms Lisa Laurino (7.1), Mr Glenn Christiansen (7.2), Ms Rachel Konsolis (7.3), Mr Adrian Good (7.4), Ms Mary Hickey (7.5), Mr Basil Psanoudakis (7.6) and Mr Brad Chapman (7.7) and other staff for their utter professionalism, diligence and care for the boys in their charge. Their tireless contribution towards the academic and pastoral care of the students has been outstanding. I could not be more proud of how the boys transformed themselves in such a short period of time, taking on new challenges, exploring their limitations and making new friends. Finally, I would like to wish the Class of 2017 every success next year and I look forward to continuing with them on their journey to manhood at Trinity College. Mr Jim Shackleton Head of Year 7

Junior School Education is evolving and changing at a rapid pace and the challenge for staff in the 21st Century is to keep abreast of the changes with the aim of providing quality education allowing all students to realise their full academic, physical, cultural, social and spiritual potential. Mr Mark Hackett (’75) Head of Junior School

The Junior School has focused on a number of priorities in 2012. In the curriculum area, literacy, numeracy and information and communications technology practices have been reviewed and improved. Providing differentiated literacy programs that cater for the broad range of learning abilities and styles has continued to underpin curriculum planning in this area. Information and communications technology (ICT) is a wonderful educational tool that is both powerful and engaging for learners. Changes in this technology have necessitated staff to continually up-skill and master new hardware and software to ensure that programs optimise student learning. Mathematics has been an area of strength across all Year levels and the introduction of a Year 5 extension class in 2012 has been very successful in enabling students to achieve at high levels in this important area of the curriculum. The Gifted & Talented program has continued to expand and develop. This year the Junior School entered a team of eight students from Year 6 in the Junior da Vinci Decathlon. This event is an academic gala day and attracted teams from most of Perth’s top schools. The competition included challenges from a number of disciplines including art, poetry, English, mathematics, philosophy, science, strategy games and general knowledge. Our team of students acquitted themselves very well and finished in top spot which is a credit to them and their teachers.

98

The new Australian Curriculum has dominated much of the staff professional development this year and significant inroads have been made implementing the curriculum and adapting pedagogy to complement the understanding and skills that form its foundation. Collaborative learning and reflective practice are woven through the Australian Curriculum and these themes have been a focus in the classroom and for the staff. In 2012 the Junior School had the responsibility of planning and overseeing the interschool carnivals for the JPSSA in swimming, athletics and cross-country. I am pleased to report that each of these events ran very smoothly and were very successful. Once again our teams have had success on the sporting field in both summer and winter codes and I would particularly like to acknowledge our dedicated staff, parent and Old Boy coaches who have imparted their knowledge and skills in various sports to assist the students to achieve success and enjoy their respective sports. This year a new initiative known as Fundamental Movement Program was introduced in Physical Education. The aim of this program is to provide students with essential skills and improve coordination. Lessons took place each Friday morning before school and success was accomplished through improvement in skills and increased participation and confidence during Physical Education lessons.


Year 4 Green students Wilson Nguyen, Daniel Santelli and Jojo Parise

From a cultural perspective there has been a continuation of the high standards set in music and choral work from 2011. Once again our students who performed at the Catholic Performing Arts Festival received excellent reviews both on an individual and group basis. The Junior School Vocal Ensemble Choir continued to reach new heights and performed to a very appreciative audience with Katie Noonan in Winthrop Hall at UWA. Chess continues to be very popular and this year saw many students involved in both Year level and interschool competitions. Mrs Janine Wyatt has again been pivotal in organising and coordinating chess teams to participate in a number of competitions with a great deal of success. The future looks bright for the Junior School with class sizes decreasing and a one-to-one iPad program, which will enable staff to initiate new and engaging programs to capture the imagination of the students. Our focus on setting high standards in all areas of the curriculum will continue as a priority in 2013. Imparting life skills to our students and teaching the importance of being global citizens through our sustainability and Christian Service programs will continue to be a priority in the years ahead. In conclusion I would like to thank the dedicated staff of the Junior School. The staff places a great deal of emphasis on providing relevant and engaging activities that assist the students to develop their skills and understanding of the curriculum.

No education system is better than its teachers. Teachers are the custodians of learning; they impart knowledge, values and skills; at their best, they tap into the talents and hopes of young people and help them to grow into productive citizens. (Ban Ki-moon, UN Secretary General, 2012) I am very appreciative of our parent body, which has been wonderfully supportive assisting in many aspects of school life including activities in the classroom, on the sports field, on camps and excursions and in many other extracurricular activities. Finally, I would like to acknowledge all students for their efforts throughout the year, particularly our student leaders whose example to their peers has been exemplary. The initiative they have displayed and their contribution to Trinity College have been significant factors in what has been a very successful year in the Junior School. Mr Mark Hackett (’75) Head of Junior School

Year 6 Blue Mr Bernard Le Tessier Year 6 Blue Teacher

In Term 2 we made suggestions for the new time capsule to mark the 50-year anniversary. We saw the original time capsule from 50 years ago. Jack Kannis This year we designed a Trinity winter sports top. Most people chose football or rugby. Once we did the design by hand we used our laptops and drew the designs on paint. Rhys Bormolini This year I got to help at the interschool sports carnival held at Challenge Stadium. I worked on the long jump pits. It was so much fun. Jamie Kinninmont This year for the end of year play Miss Rich decided that I was going to be Pinocchio. It was the best! Presley Massara This year a number of boys represented the school at swimming. Liam Martin from 6 Green broke three records! Unfortunately we didn’t win. Thomas Miocevich

From Mr Bernard Le Tessier

There are so many talented young men who make each day in class an adventure. It is fantastic to see the enthusiasm and skill displayed in class and in the areas of performing arts and sports. The boys over the last three years, have been given many opportunities and experiences and a few have already made plans for their future. Some of these events are remembered here. From Year 6 Blue In Years 5 and 6 I played As footy. We were very successful in both years. In Year 5 Trinity won the Ian MaCrae Cup, but unfortunately lost it in Year 6. I wish we won it for our coach, Mr Le Tessier. Roman Nicolaou These three years have been quite the adventure, but with G&T it was even better. It has been a challenge but it made future life just as easy. Jack Clear

This year everyone in the Junior School went on the oval and made the shape of a 50. A photo was taken by someone in a helicopter. Christian Rosso Every year at the end of the year we have a concert with a different theme. This year the theme is Pinocchio. It was very exciting being able to audition for a part. Joel Taylor One of my favourite things I did at Trinity was in Year 5. We hatched chickens; they were so cuddly and cute. My favourite one was Hammerhead. Sam Heald I find Book Club interesting because we get to read a book. After two weeks in a group you discuss it with the others who have read the book. We also get to share a plate of food. Ben Tricoli In Year 6 I received Confirmation. I couldn’t wait to get confirmed. At the church I sat next to Liam and my sponsor. When it was time to be confirmed it was awesome. Lorenzo Maio In Year 5 we went to Forest Edge camp, it was the best thing I have been on. The best thing was the flying fox. Dylan Salvia

In interschool cross-country I was hoping to make the top 20 – I was eight off, but my dad was happy. Christ Church came first and Trinity came fourth. Mack Spiers

My time at Trinity has been a major highlight of my life. I have been cherishing the fact that the teachers encourage me to follow my dreams and my goal of getting a Bachelor of Physics and a degree in Chemistry. Jarrad Scott

When I was in Year 5 both classes went to Forest Edge Recreation Camp. My favourite activity was the flying fox, it was massive. On my second go I did a flip and stayed upside down. Luke Nardelli

In Year 6 cross-country we had to race 2.5km. I did better than ever to finish fourth. I enjoyed the experience. Josh Nixon

The Golden Heritage Club is for people who left Trinity or CBC 50 years or more ago. The Year 6 classes got to interview them. Josh Colton

This year the Year 6s had the opportunity to go on an astronomy camp and I was one of the people to go. We did lots of fun activities like building a rocket and launching it. Cooper Walsh


‘Masterchef’ is a chance for Year 5s to learn about cooking and how to write a recipe. It’s simple to make a delicious and healthy dish in under an hour. Thomas Fry In Year 6 the boys in G&T were given a special task. This task was the evening of eminence, when we have to research a person and build a learning centre. Reilly McClure Soccer was a great sport to play even though we lost all of our games. It was good to meet the players. We had so much fun. David Black The DaVinci decathlon had 11 teams, even one from Bunbury. We competed in 10 subject areas and WE WON! William Tan In Year 5 Blue we did ‘Masterchef’. Tim L and I drew for first with a score of 29/30. I really enjoyed this and it encouraged me to cook more at home. Nick Bradford I was pumped for the interhouse cross-country. My goal was to get in the interschool. I came eleventh (sub) and got to train. Sean was sick that day so I ran and came second last. Ethan Ryan Something I really enjoyed about the last two years in Junior School was Thursday sport. The sport I played was rugby. I remember making a break from the back of the scrum and scored under the sticks! Josh Stops

We did activities with our Year 4 Green buddies. My buddy is Luke. I went to school with his sister. We went to the senior library together and saw the 50-year time capsule. Kosta Paraskov On the third week of Term 3 the Year 6 classes went to the historic town of Kalgoorlie. Overall it was thrilling and I want to thank all involved. Sean Carroll In the future my dream is to be a rugby player for the Wallabies. I want to be a water polo player too. I like being in water and I like the thrill of the game. Blair Italiano Mr Bernard Le Tessier Year 6 Blue Teacher

Year 6 Green Mr Gordon Dean Year 6 Green Teacher

Kalgoorlie Trip In July the two Year 6 classes went on their annual camp to Kalgoorlie. I found the experience mind-blowing, even though the train journey took seven hours. The best activity was going to the YMCA. We got to wrestle in sumo suits and do indoor rock climbing. Harrison Pell I have many memorable moments but the best was the Kalgoorlie Camp. We were kept busy with the team activities and going on excursions. My favourite was going to the Goldfield Oasis. Alexander Nguyen The best thing ever was the camp to Kalgoorlie. It was a great experience and we got to meet new friends and do fun activities. It was awesome. Tom Jansen I really enjoyed the Kalgoorlie Camp because it was good fun to be away from my brother and to be with my friends for a week. Kaya Foti

The year got off to a flying start with the Peer Mentor Program. Year 6 Green buddied up with Year 4 Blue, and Year 6 Blue buddied with Year 4 Green. The boys enjoyed many shared activities throughout the year and really got to know each other well. For the first time we had a combined Year 6 Leadership and Confirmation Retreat at Camp Kelly which was a great success. Kalgoorlie was a very memorable occasion for the boys and parents who attended the camp. I have been very impressed by the maturity and leadership shown by the Year 6 students who excelled in so many areas this year and I wish them well as they move on to Senior School. Gordon Dean Year 6 Green Teacher

Sport Interschool sport has been one of the most enjoyable things for me this year. You get to play with your buddies in the summer sunshine and in the winter with the rain. I enjoyed my rugby and cricket. Scoring a six or a try is a great adrenalin rush! Steven Miller I was sad that I did not make the Interschool Athletics Carnival but it didn’t really matter because I still had fun in the House Carnival and I came first in the 100 metre sprint. Declan Paton I enjoyed doing volleyball with Mr Thompson and it was fun playing with my mates. Tylen Keizer I enjoyed playing water polo for Trinity because it’s nice and refreshing when I jump into the pool and beat all the other schools. Liam Martin I enjoyed our Confirmation Retreat, the Kalgoorlie Camp and Thursday sport. In Dwellingup I enjoyed all the activities, especially the canoeing. Nic Miller

In Class Being in Mr Dean’s class was always a blast! He always made everything seem like fun. Declan O’Hurley I enjoyed working with Mrs Pagano on Mondays and Tuesdays. We did comprehension, iced cupcakes and had lots of laughs. Michael Soares Poeira I enjoyed the Astronomy Camp because we got to stay up late and do many fun activities. We made our own rockets which we fired off the oval. Alex Jasper We made some big bottle rockets with Mr Thompson. It was so much fun. Some failed but most went rocketing up in the air. Jack Down

106


My favourite memory was my first interschool chess tournament. We had to keep a straight face for an extremely nerve-racking 12 minutes. I went home feeling very proud winning 5 out of 7 games. Alistair Hunt I enjoyed Year 6 because of all the retreats and camps. My favourite was Kalgoorlie because I had never been there before. The sights were amazing, especially ‘The Superpit’. Nic Deleonardis Year 6 was a blast! There was so much that I enjoyed. We built water rockets and electrical devices, and made PowerPoint presentations and posters. The teachers were wonderful and they taught us many new concepts and we are all very grateful. They have prepared us for Year 7 and we are ready to go! Joey Eng It has been a fun filled and adventurous year. We went to Kalgoorlie and our Confirmation Retreat in Dwellingup. We also had a lot of fun on Unfair Day. Filipe Lagrenade

Year 5 Green Mr Tony Maxfield Year 5 Green Teacher

I was a new boy to Trinity this year. At Year 5 Camp I conquered my fear of heights when on the flying fox and rock climbing wall. Also at Trinity I got to make many new friends. Science was my favourite subject though building our mousetrap car was hard. Mr Maxfield is funny and he has helped me a lot this year. Thanks Sir. Kyle Wright I liked how Mr Max is funny and a bit old fashioned. Mr Max is a great science teacher; I loved making our balloon popping machine and our mousetrap car. I also loved learning about history. Mr Max has helped me a lot this year. James Della Gatta Starting at Trinity was awesome because everyone welcomed me. Mr Maxfield has been a huge help to me, he has helped me improve in all that I do. I was really happy when we went to the Second Avenue Aged Care Facility. I loved seeing the smiles on the residents’ faces when we talked and sang songs with them. Thanks for a great year Mr Maxfield. Adam Ricci

My favourite part of the year was our Year 5 Camp at Forrest Edge. We went on the huge flying fox, rock climbing wall, canoeing and raft building and much more. The best challenge was abseiling because it felt like I was climbing down a mountain. Samuel Minniti This year in 5 Green I loved reading the Parvana series of novels by Deborah Ellis. We learned how life in Afghanistan is very different to Australia and we are very lucky. I also really enjoyed camp, science, history and visiting our friends at the Second Avenue Aged Care facility. I need to thank Mr Max for everything this year. Zac Wayne Year 5 was great for me. The subjects that I liked the most were Science, Society & Environment and History. I liked learning the history behind ANZAC Day and the Swan River Colony. This year I have improved my spelling and maths. Mr Max loves history like me. Fynnigan Langer In 5 Green this year I loved it. It has probably been my best school year so far. I really enjoyed meeting the residents and carers at the aged care facility, they were fun. I also loved building our balloon popping machine and mousetrap car in science. Thank you Mr Max. Brendan Murphy My first week at Trinity was a blast. I was a new boy to Trinity but soon made new friends and got to know Mr Max. Camp in Term 1 was great. I was really pleased that my dad went as well and we share all the fun together with our camp group. Alex Santoro 5 Green has been an amazing year. Mr Max our teacher is funny and has helped me with my spelling, reading, handwriting and maths. Now I am better at all of them. Year 5 Camp was great, I overcame my fear of heights when we went on the flying fox and the rock climbing wall. I also loved doing science in 5 Green particularly our mousetrap cars. Thanks for everything Mr Max. Adam Knox

This year in 5 Green I had so much fun. I really enjoyed learning about science and history. I really like it when we went to the aged care facility and made friends with many of the residents. It was great when some of the residents and their carers came to our class Mass in the Chapel in Term 4. Thanks Mr Max for making it such an interesting year. Harry Zimmerman In 5 Green I enjoyed the camp at Forest Edge. We learned many new things at camp and most importantly I shared the experience with my classmates. My reading has really improved this year. My favourite class reading novels were Parvana and Parvana’s Journey about a young girl who lived in war torn Afghanistan. I have enjoyed every minute of Year 5. Simon Homsany

Year 5 Green – The Seeds are Sown Lesson 1, Day 1,Term 1 – we discussed the year to come and how we were going to live it. The class consensus is reflected on what became our class motto for the year ‘Make a difference, whatever it takes’. This motto reflects Trinity’s mantra of ‘Men for Others’ and so together we set out. I must say that the boys have excelled. They have worked well and listened to advice on how to be the best that they can be to realise their individual and collective potential. While this is reflected in what they have learned and what they can now do regarding their schoolwork and academic achievements, I believe the real living of our motto has been in the boys’ Christian Service work, particularly our visits to the Second Avenue Aged Care Facility in Mt Lawley. An aged care home can be a challenging and confronting environment even for adults, yet from these boys there was no hesitation shown when they met the residents, played games with them, sang songs with them and in Term 4 shared Mass with them in the Trinity College


Chapel. Words cannot do justice to the difference that the boys made to the lives of many of the residents at Second Avenue. Below is a message from Julie Martin at Second Avenue. I believe that she sums it up well…

Hi Tony, Thank you so much for the wonderful reception our residents received when we visited on Monday for Mass. Our residents don’t often get out for Mass so it was extra special for them to be in a Chapel and have such attentive hosts. I asked how the visit made them feel and more than once the reply was ‘we felt so special!’. Other comments were ‘the boys were so wonderful, the way they all wanted to help….’ I wish you could have seen them when we returned. They were still on ‘a high’ and were talking about the visit all day.

Junior School Faith Education Report

Mr Gordon Dean Assistant Head of Junior School

Chaplain Fra Oscar Aguilera, affectionately known as Fra Oscar, has developed a wonderful rapport with the boys and staff and we are very appreciative of the time he gives to Trinity students. Fra Oscar accompanied us on the Year 6 Confirmation and Leadership Retreat and celebrated a very special Mass with the students and parents who attended.

Masses Our masses are a central part of our Faith Program and it is a wonderful way of encouraging and developing a very caring community spirit. Each class has the opportunity of preparing at least two Masses a year and these are always well supported by our families. At our opening we had the blessing and presentation of the Prefect and House Captain badges. The Mass was well attended by parents and grandparents of the boys in the Junior School. Mother’s Day Mass is always a very special occasion and this year was no exception. Special thanks to Mrs Leonie Forrest and Mrs Tanya Pesce for sharing their thoughts on what it means to be a mother. Here are a few excerpts from what they shared with us.

Mrs Leonie Forrest As much as it is fulfilling and rewarding, raising children can be challenging. As mothers imparting essential values to school-aged children we usually develop stock phrases over a range of areas to help us stay ahead of the game: Stamina: “You’ll sit there until all those vegetables are eaten.” Irony: “Keep crying and I’ll give you something to cry about.” Religion: “You’d better pray that you can find that blazer.” Environmentalism: “Let me smell that shirt – yeah it’s good for another day.” Anticipation: “Just wait till your father gets home.” Forward Thinking: “If you don’t pass this maths test, you won’t get a good job.” Grammar: “Do as I say; not as I do.” Vocabulary: “When you’re my age, then maybe you can say that word.” And mothers, be kind to one another and don’t be shy to admit that the true joy of motherhood is what a woman experiences when the children are finally in bed. Joking aside, always remember that a mother’s warm and gentle presence reminds our children that they are loved, and this Mother’s Day, pause to reflect on the mothers in less fortunate circumstances, especially those for whom the idea of Mother’s Day is incomprehensible in the context of an endless struggle to feed, shelter and clothe their children. Happy Mother’s Day and God bless!

Junior School Easter Paraliturgy

Mrs Tanya Pesce As long as I can remember, I always dreamed of becoming a mother. I was very lucky to be able to stay at home and I have great respect for mothers who balance raising children with workplace responsibilities. Being a mother has given me a greater appreciation of my own mother and what an amazing mother she was and still is. Most women enter motherhood not knowing what to expect and that got me thinking…what if there was a job description for being a mother, what would it say? •

Must be willing to work 80 hours per week, or more during school holidays etc.

•

Must be willing to forego regular rest breaks and any form of leave.

•

Must have strong skills in negotiation, conflict resolution and crisis management.

•

Must have driver’s licence to transport children anywhere they need to go.

•

Must be able to cook and cater to a wide range of tastes.

•

Must have basic medical skills to administer first aid when required.

Sacraments Confirmation and First Holy Communion: This year the teachers prepared the students to receive the Sacraments of Confirmation and Eucharist but ceremonies were done in the respective parishes of the students. From all accounts this went well and students were acknowledged at our assemblies and in Trinity’s newsletters. Special thanks go to Miss Alana Brenan and Miss Kristina Grech who made sure that the boys were well prepared to receive the Sacrament of the Eucharist and to Mr Bernard Le Tessier for preparing the boys to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation. Mr Gordon Dean Assistant Head of Junior School

Would anyone be brave enough to apply? Even with the never-ending list of things to do, I love being a mother and feel very blessed for the gift of my three children. I wish all Mums a Happy Mother’s Day.

Chess Chess this year was very popular as usual. We had seven teams in the interschool competition and we met with mixed success. In the first chess day at Warwick our two D teams came equal second and received medallions. One of our B teams won the second chess day and were then in the grand final, but we were beaten by Regent School. The boys who played in the interschool competitions enjoyed the experience and learnt a lot from it. Our end of year knockout competitions resulted in:

Year 6 Champion: Anthony Nguyen (6G)

Year 6 Runner Up: William Tan (6B)

Year 5 Champion: Matthew Della Gatta (5W)

Year 5 Runner Up: Jerome Iaconi (5B)

Year 4 Champion: Daniel Bourke (4B)

Junior School Library Book Week ‘Champions Read’ was the theme for Book Week in 2012. Every boy made a reading champion medal with a photo of himself reading a book in an interesting place. We had boys reading everywhere from Venice to Bali to Singapore to the roof of a house! The outstanding results of their efforts were hung from the library ceiling. We also had a five-week Tuesday morning story reading in different groups with different readers. A great way to start a Tuesday! A highlight this year was a visit by the author Oliver Phommavanh. The boys found him exceptionally entertaining and he inspired most of them to read his books. We have many voracious readers in the Junior School and we hope to have many more next year. Remember, as Barak Obama says, “Today’s readers, tomorrow’s leaders”!

Junior School Music

Junior School Music

Miss Natasha Rich Junior School Music Teacher

At Junior and Middle School Music Night the debut performance from our Year 4 Choir had the audience shaking in their boots as they sang their song Spooks!, then there was X-Men, and a new Year 6 xylophone and percussion ensemble also performed for the first time. Term 3 is always busy term due to the Catholic Performing Arts Festival, as always the boys impressed with their ability to perform professionally and musically on stages at various venues. We received the following certificates: Year 4 Choir – Certificate of Merit Year 5/6 Choir – Certificate of Honourable Mention Junior Vocal Ensemble – Certificate of Honourable Mention X-Men – Certificate of Merit Year 4 Blue Choral Speech The Wonky Donkey – Certificate of Merit

“Boys can sing??!” A question I hear so very often when I tell people I teach music to boys and I take great pleasure in setting them straight! This year in the Junior School we have had the X-Men group, Year 4 Choir, Year 5/6 Choir, Junior Vocal Ensemble and Year 5/6 Junior String Ensemble. I am continually proud of these young men and their ability to enthusiastically embrace new ideas and practise and perform like professionals. Below is a snapshot of our busy year! During Term 1 the Quarry Concert with its outdoor picnic setting saw the Year 5/6 Choir in a combined performance of Paul Jarman’s captivating work Volta Do Ma Largo with the Year 7/8/9 Chorale and Senior Guitar Ensemble. The boys were in stitches of laughter in the Braham Auditorium as our Artists in Residence, the percussion group Tetrafide, performed an array of world music with their usual humour and contagious beat! Highly esteemed American choral conductor Jing Ling-Tam had the Junior School boys captivated by her incredibly infectious humour and passion for singing when she came to workshop with each of the choirs at Trinity over our Music Weekend. In Term 2 what a treat we were in for when Australian composer Paul Jarman flew from Brisbane to be our Composer in Residence for a week, running workshops, performing and telling stories. A highlight saw Paul teaching the Junior School boys how to make a ‘saxophone’ from a drinking straw. Year 6 Green was lucky enough to have extra attention from Paul Jarman as they worked together to create an item loosely based around the poem ‘Invictus’ and the South African workmen song Sho Sho Loza, performed at Junior and Middle School Music Night. 124

With over 100 boys involved in Junior School choirs we definitely had the majority of those who were up and performing at the Junior School Choral Assembly, a new calendar event featuring all of the choirs and their works from Catholic Performing Arts. It is never easy to perform in front of your peers and the boys did a commendable job. A special thank you to our accompanist Ms Athena Litis! We could barely contain our excitement when highly regarded ARIA-winning Australian artist Katie Noonan and guitarist Karin Shauup requested the help of a Junior School choir for their Perth show at Winthrop Hall on the last day of Term 3 – perhaps the most exciting event of the year. In Term 4 our Assembly performance featured the Year 5/6 String Ensemble after their hard work each Monday afternoon with Mrs Bennett and Mrs Tabi. I would like to thank the boys for their dedication to each rehearsal and Mrs Bennett and Mrs Tabi for their assistance across the year. Our final ‘hurrah’ for the year is always our Junior School Presentation Night. Our musical this year was Pinocchio. A big round of applause to our Year 6 cast members who trod the stage with great gusto! Thanks must go to the staff in the Junior School who continue to support the music program and encourage the boys to pursue their creative side. Thanks to Ms Athena Litis for her faultless accompaniment to all of the Junior School choirs! Where would we be without you?! Thanks also to Dr Braham and Mrs Denniston for helping to keep things running smoothly. Finally, thanks to the parents for their support across the year and for encouraging your boys to value music and take opportunities to perform. I trust they have made you proud.

Boys in Groove

Ms Aimee Smith Dance Coordinator

Boys in Groove (BIG) started the year with their quirky and surprising dance, City of Boxes, which they performed at both Dance Night and the Catholic Performing Arts Festival. BIG also had a great challenge and adventure performing alongside the older GIG dancers in the Dance Night flash mob. After learning some wicked moves from breakdance champion Lucas Marie, BIG finished off the year performing in part of the Junior School Musical Pinocchio at Presentation Night.

House Athletics Carnival The House Athletics Carnival is always a highlight on the Junior School sports calendar. This year, as in the past, we had a large number of parents willing to assist in a variety of roles to ensure the day ran smoothly. All students had the opportunity to participate in several events during what was a very successful and enjoyable day. The carnival unearthed a number of talented young men in both individual and team events. Campion was the winning house closely followed by Xavier, Chanel and Queens. Special thanks must go to Mr Luke Thompson for his planning and preparation of the day. Mr Mark Hackett (’75) Head of Junior School

Junior School Basketball

Basketball was once again chosen by a number of boys resulting in another year of having four teams. All the boys gave it their best effort and worked hard at training to be their best on game day. For the Year 5s it was their first year and they had no trouble making Trinity into a bigger and stronger side.

Thanks to Ms Trutwein and Miss House for coaching the basketball team and to Mr Thompson for coaching in Ms Trutwein’s absence. I hope that we have another strong season next year.

Junior School Cricket The A, B and C cricket teams started off their brilliant season against Scotch with the B and C teams winning and the A team putting up a very competitive fight against a very strong Scotch line-up. Overall we had some good wins against Aquinas and Wesley and the season included a

draw against Guildford. I really thought the season was a cracker and I would like to thank Mr Thompson for organising everything and our three coaches Mr Le Tessier, Mr Maxfield (’79) and Mr Lamborn (’69).

Junior School Football This year Trinity College placed third out of seven schools in football. We had a great year as we always had the support of our parents and each other. The highlight of the season was playing in the Ian MaCrae Cup against Aquinas. Although we lost the day it was a close fought game and we had a great time.

We would like to thank our coach Mr Le Tessier for teaching us new skills and leading us to a great season with only four losses. We would also like to thank the parents who came to the games to cheer us on and the groundsmen who kept our oval in great condition.

Junior School Hockey

Junior School Rugby

The hockey team had a great season this year starting slowly as we had never played with each other before then gradually getting better and better as the season progressed. Our first triumph was drawing with Hale after leading 1-0 up to ten minutes before full-time. We were a bit disappointed we did not win after leading strongly for most of the game, but we were all happy with our strong performance. Two weeks later we had our first team win in two years in a game against Guildford with very good goals from both Harrison Min Oo (5G) and Charlie Coates (5B) leading us to a strong 2-0 victory. Our season continued well after the holidays drawing 0-0 with Hale and beating Guildford 1-0 in the last few minutes in a nail-biting game. In our last game of the season, against Wesley, we had a disappointing loss after trailing by one goal up to five minutes before half-time, then Trinity got a short corner after some great play on the right wing and Harrison Pell (6G) equalised the score, which stayed the same up until two minutes before full-time when Wesley scored two consecutive goals to win the match. We were all a bit sad that we lost but happy with our performance. Our success this season would not have been possible without the continuous efforts of Mrs Trutwien and Joe Clear (’11) who helped coach and umpire our games and of course all of the hockey team who tried their best all year. Thank you to all involved.

Our year began with many newcomers who were somewhat unfamiliar with the game of rugby. We did not allow this to hold us back and with some good coaching from Sam Harris (’09) and Will Singer (’10) we managed to quickly find our feet and the other teams’ legs! We had a great first game when we beat Aquinas by 30 points. We had a good first few games that saw us defeat Christ Church, Hale and Wesley. We drew against Scotch and suffered a bit of a thumping from Guildford. We did not allow this to defeat our attitude and continued to have a very good rest of the season. Our players consisted of a mix of Years 5 and 6 with Reesjan Pasitoa (5B) standing out as a consistent player and Steven Miller (6G) playing some very good rugby. Towards the end of the season we started to play better as a team and we are looking forward to next year when we get to play some tough high school level rugby! Jamie Kinnimont (6B)

Junior School Soccer

Soccer was a popular sport this year with more than four teams and Mr Lamborn (’69) coaching the As. We had a pretty good season with only five losses and the rest wins. On behalf of the team I would like to thank Mr Lamborn for coaching us through the year and talking us up to winning. I would also like to thank Mr Thompson for organising the season and filling in when Mr Lamborn was sick.

We had a few really close games winning by 1 and then there were others when we won by 6. A lot of our players improved a lot through the season and we finished on a high winning our last game of the season 2-1. We are all hoping for a good season next year with new students coming in year seven we are sure to have a good team.

House Swimming Carnival The Junior School House Swimming Carnival adopted a different format this year due to the unavailability of the usual venue Beatty Park Aquatic Centre. The carnival was held in the Trinity College pool employing a staggered schedule to accommodate the number of swimmers and spectators from each Year level. The entire carnival was very successful and the winning house was Campion followed by Queens, Xavier and Chanel. Congratulations to the following boys who were the champions in their respective year levels: Year 4 – Ethan Regan (4G); Year 5 – Jacob John (5G) and Year 6 – Liam Martin (6G).

From Viriliter Age to In Nomine Domini – 50 years of Excellence

Mr Tony Curtis

CBC Perth In the early 1960s, most people in Perth who viewed the iconic CBC building at number 1 St Georges Terrace would have been impressed with its grand facade. However, those who worked at the College – often referred to as St Malachy’s – knew that inside the magnificent-looking structure things were not good. In fact, many physical parts of the school were in disrepair and some were even dangerously so.

that the College had a great location and a magnificent building. However Br J A Kelly, the architect of the move to the College’s East Perth location, knew otherwise. The site was far too small; and the structure was in fact falling to pieces under their eyes. At first, the move to the newly reclaimed swamp land and rubbish tip abutting the WACA did not look too promising. However Br Tony Kelly had a vision that this reclaimed land would one day look as good as the reclaimed Langley Park.

It was therefore a stroke of good fortune that the Brothers at CBC Perth read in the morning paper that the State Government was planning to build a large Chevron-Hilton Hotel right alongside the College. The upshot was that the Brothers decided to relocate the College – but not move out of the Perth area. The conventional wisdom was

Trinity College Facilities Along with the move to a new site, CBC Perth changed its name (to Trinity College), its motto (from Viriliter Age to In Nomine Domini) and its badge. However, for the staff and students who moved from St Georges Terrace, it was still the same school with the same spirit and the same ethos.

From Viriliter Age to In Nomine Domini – 50 years of Excellence The Brothers had been able to negotiate an extremely good deal for the move. As well as the exchange of land, they were promised facilities that matched those at CBC. However CBC had originally been a boarding school and so had developed facilities that most secondary schools would never have had – dormitories, bathrooms, kitchen, dining room and a chapel. When the new Trinity College was built, it commenced with a beautiful and modern chapel, a large hall and sports pavilion as well as normal school facilities. Over the next few years, Trinity was able to add an extensive complex of playing fields on Manning Road at Waterford. This location was property that was originally part of Clontarf and was donated to Trinity by the Christian Brothers. The development of this sporting complex was a strong catalyst for Trinity’s joining the Public Schools Association (PSA). Another major addition to the College’s facilities was the obtaining of land at Dwellingup for an Outdoor Education Centre. Funded by donations from the Trinity Old Boys Association, this Centre was developed originally with volunteer labour and then with successive improvements by the College. The camp was named Camp Kelly in honour of the Headmaster at that time, Br Tony Kelly.

Trinity College Curriculum

A major development at the time of the building of the Treacy Technology Centre was the inclusion of a program and a facility for the support of students with mild to moderate disabilities. The program operated from the new Mary Rice Centre and became a key focus for many students.

From its inception, Trinity College continued the high academic standards that were part of the CBC tradition. The standard set in 1962, of highly qualified staff and exceptional teaching practices have been the backbone of the College.

In the 1990s Trinity initiated a “head, heart and hands” approach to religious education. The “head” part involved the development of relevant courses of study in religious education.

Immediately after moving to East Perth, the College introduced an Irish Pipes and Drums band as part of the Army Cadets unit. This band has become a core element of the Trinity experience and often contributes a special facet to formal occasions.

The “heart” part involved two elements: firstly a liturgical program in which student involvement was paramount; and a retreat program for each year which focused on the developmental needs of students in those years. The voluntary Kairos Retreat became a highlight of the year for many Year 12 students.

In an innovative and creative development during the early 1970s, Trinity pioneered an extensive literacy and numeracy remediation program that evolved into a Saturday morning clinic which assisted the development of students from many schools around Perth. The strong emphasis on literacy in particular has been a feature of both the Primary and the Secondary schools since that time.

The “hands” part was firstly the consolidation of the biennial pilgrimage to India during the Christmas school holidays. Secondly, the College developed a Campus Ministry program introducing Christian Service for all students as part of their experience of being a Trinity student.

An area of major significance for Trinity has been the development of a superb music program which has become the “jewel in the crown” for the College. The work of students and their teachers in many performance areas has been outstanding and has achieved an enviable reputation. In 2010 the Br P L O’Doherty Cultural Centre was opened providing state-of-the-art facilities for visual and performing Arts. In 2012 Trinity was awarded the Zenith Shield for Catholic Performing Arts for the ninth year in succession, an amazing achievement.

The catchwords for the Campus Ministry program – which became part of all students’ vocabulary – was “Men for Others”.

Conclusion One hundred years ago, The Cyclopedia of Western Australia was lavish in its praise of CBC Perth which had been operating for just twenty years:

Since gaining entry into the PSA in 1968, Trinity has gradually improved its status and performance so that it now ranks as one of the most competitive and successful sporting schools in the Association.

Camp Kelly 1987

In 1991 Trinity became the first school in Australia to build a fully robotic observatory. This was a challenging project, as the aim was for astronomy students to be able to access the Ritchey-Chretien 31cm telescope from their home computers. This observatory was named the Brockwell Observatory after Maurice Brockwell (’65) who had been a great contributor to the College.

The College is now firmly established, is well known all over Western Australia, and its reputation has spread to the Eastern States, on account of its successes both in the scholastic and athletic worlds. Its record is, indeed, a most honourable one in both departments, and it can justly claim to rank as one of the great public schools of Australia.

In spite of the wishes of many parents, for many years Trinity did not offer students programs in what were then known as manual arts subjects. However, this changed dramatically in the year 2000 with the building of the Treacy Technology Centre where students were challenged to design solutions for technical problems.

Campus Ministry and Pastoral Care Trinity College has been at the forefront of many developments in the area of pastoral; care and student support.

After fifty years on the East Perth site, Trinity College can also justly claim this honour.

Of particular note has been the support of Aboriginal and Torres Strait boys over many years. Since the early 1990s these boys have been supported by the awarding of bursaries and the employment of Aboriginal Liaison Officers to assist the students and their parents and guardians.

Religious Education 143


Religious Education Religious Education is obligated not only to make a positive contribution with regard to the Catholic tradition, but also to facilitate and serve the very heart of education. Its purpose is to assist students to connect with their very human nature and ‘become human’. By their very nature, humans are transcendental beings in that they go beyond the here and now. The focus of the Religious Education program is to devise a curriculum that will enable students to explore and create meaning in their lives. Students are searching for their own identity in the new millennium. This is characterised by the 21st century landscape where Catholic schools in Australia are brimming with enrolments while the Churches appear to be empty. It is evident that this current phenomenon reflects the choices parents are making. They see the benefits of Catholic Education while not necessarily choosing a personal Catholic identity or prioritising a Religious Education program of studies within that choice. Trinity College is an Edmund Rice school and is based on the traditions of the Christian Brothers. As a Catholic school we teach the Catholic tradition. The Religious Education syllabus is designed to recognise that students are individuals, coming from diverse religious backgrounds. It is not the focus of Religious Education to convince students of certain doctrines. Rather, we invite students to find meaning in their lives. We hope that students will embark upon their own religious journeys to explore religious traditions and beliefs. Jesus is the model of living fully and he has called each person to live that same kind of life. The Religious Education program at Trinity College beckons each student to fulfil his complete potential, which for every person is to love and be loved. God sent Jesus to show people how much they were loved by God and how they in turn can love others.

been able to design a curriculum program that keeps Catholic Christianity at the centre of their teaching. Religious Education is grounded upon good educational practice. Good educational practice should be part of all Religious Education programs because then and only then will the aims of the Catholic college like Trinity be achieved.

In 2012, an innovative and creative year, progress has been made in the development of the new course of study, Religion & Life for Years 11 and 12. Trinity College offers the full spectrum of courses from Year 11 1A/B Religion & Life to Year 12 3A/B. The implication of technology to Religious Education has influenced the delivery of this learning area. Students have access to electronic text, but more significantly, current technology has provided teachers with the opportunity to use a more interactive approach to Religious Education. People are by nature social beings in need of communicating and expressing their personal identity and spirituality. Technology has facilitated the students’ ability to conceptualise and concretise their prevailing beliefs and give meaning to the cosmos in which they live. The appointment of Ms Kathryn Down to the role of Youth Ministry and the addition of Mr Ken O’Neil (’73), Mr Michael Murphy and Ms Lisa Laurino have added a wealth of experience to the Religious Education Learning Area. Mr Gerard Theseira (’75) Director of Religious Education

The Religious Education courses are part of the academic curriculum and so respond to the necessary rigours associated with academic requirements. Students are expected to complete two common assessments in the form of a research assignment and a test in each term. They are also required to record all class work in the Religious Education Journal. This journal is a reflection of their work during the year. It is imperative that students maintain the condition of this journal. We strongly encourage parents to ask their sons to show their journals on a regular basis. The introduction of laptop computers for all students at Trinity has made the delivery of the content more student orientated, with students having access to electronic texts and resources. The Archdiocesan student resource ‘Come Follow Me’ is implemented to inform students of a variety of rituals, teachings and practice Catholics understand, believe and value. The nature of this resource provides a high level of flexibility in devising courses that are best suited to the needs and interests of the students. Trinity College has 144

Campus Ministry Mr Leo Murray Director of Campus Ministry

“This is what the Lord requires of you: To act justly, To love tenderly, And to walk humbly with God”

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.

As part of Trinity’s ongoing commitment to Faith Formation, every student in the Senior School has a special time to come away from their regular daily life and to respond to Jesus’s invitation to reflect on how God is present in their lives by participating in our retreat programs. Each Year group has time set aside to enjoy 146

their unique retreat experience – Year 7 Becoming Brothers, Year 8 Quest, Year 9 Galilee, Year 10 Emmaus, Year 11 Encounter, and Year 12 Tabgha and Kairos 30, 31 and 32. These activities were carefully planned and the adult and student leaders were specifically trained for these experiences, which can only happen with people’s ongoing generous donation of time and energy so that others can celebrate God’s love present in their lives. Early in Term 1 the Year 7 students were introduced to the richness of the Trinity experience through the Becoming Brothers Retreat when they participated in a series of exciting activities in Dwellingup, guided by Year 12 Senior Ministers who became their mentors and friends for the rest of the year. This was followed by the Quest Retreat during the March long weekend, for which the Year 12 Cadre had been training the Year 11 Peer Ministers in a series of sessions that began in Term 4, 2011. The Peer Ministers spent Saturday and Sunday with their Year 8 ‘little brothers’, getting to know them and leading them through an ongoing reflection on a series of activities, the most exciting being the canned food collection, which led into discovering ways that God was present in their lives. In the Year 9 Galilee Retreat the students participated in a walking meditation, reflecting on ways that they are called by Jesus: called as they are, called but not alone, called to serve, called to pray. By responding to these callings they become men for others. In the Year 10 Emmaus retreat, students spent one day reflecting on their lives so far and how God is present with them. Year 11 Encounter was an opportunity for students to reflect on their Christian Service experience and how they reached out to serve others, meeting Jesus in the needy. Year 12 Tabgha was a chance to take time out of very busy schedules and to help students to focus on what really counts. Kairos 30, 31 and 32 were unique experiences for the Class of 2012 to focus on God’s love present in their lives, especially through their loved ones. They were led by their peers through these retreats who in turn were supported by staff members. Each Year group had several opportunities to celebrate Jesus present in the Eucharist in Year Group Masses. We also had whole school celebrations; the Mass of the Holy Spirit, when we asked the Spirit to guide us through the school year, Ash Wednesday to initiate our celebration of Lent, and early in Term 3 when we combined a celebration of the feast day of Blessed Edmund Ignatius Rice with Unfair Day to raise funds for the India Missions. Year 12 Special Ministers of the Eucharist helped distribute Holy Communion at all these celebrations. Mr Leo Murray Director of Campus Ministry


Christian Service One of the joys of Christian Service is discovering the compassion and sensitivity that is in the heart of every one of our students, and this is evident when chatting to them about their experiences while at their placement or immediately after. Mrs Marya Stewart Director of Christian Service

It is even more intense when hearing indepth reflections on experiences at retreats or in class sessions, and is most poignant when reading their reflections in their journals. It is here that it becomes obvious how the students have been affected by their time spent serving others. When young men are able to clearly see the connection to their Faith of actions taken to create relationships built on the care for the needs of others, it is truly a blessing.

truly focus on the needs of the poor in their immediate environment. As the students complete their assigned duties they will hopefully gain an understanding of human nature and the needs of others, not just their own. As each year passes, a new activity is undertaken and the same message is promoted. By the time you reach Year 12 the final test of whether or not the message has fully sunken in is the optional Senior Project. For students who don’t take up this task there is no punishment or scolding or pressure. But for those who do, their reward is finally being able to say that they have learnt something from their Christian Service years prior.

The journal reflections of the following students are a testimony to that spirit, which is growing and forming the students of Trinity College into ‘men for others’. Rob Di Giovanni (12.5) completed 156 hours for his Senior Project and wrote the following for his final reflection on the experience of Christian Service at Trinity College. “At Trinity College, we are pushed by our peers and mentors, at all times to strive to be our best and to help all those who are unable to help themselves. This is the goal of the Christian Service Program. It is designed to teach students things about themselves that were maybe not so apparent and to help them on the path to selflessness. The final hope of the Christian Service staff is that these experiences will rub off on the students, making a profound impact and just maybe push them to continue their service in all actions they take up after school and in the future. “Each year a different activity is organised for the students of Trinity College to take part in. These activities are designed to be a comprehensive and intensive insight into the nature of selflessness and service. It allows the student to forget their own problems and the world outside and

Christian Service “Completing the Senior Project is the first step in making selfless action in all facets of life, including post-school years. It is sad to think that less than half the graduating class will give up their time for others in this way. However, if just one student takes the time to pledge their services with no incentives, to truly help others, the Christian Service program is a success, for it only takes one person to make a difference. “The Christian Service program is not so much about converting students to devout Catholicism. It is more about preaching goodness and love in life. A person does not need to be a Catholic to fully understand the message of the program. It is in the open nature that all students are given the option to become disciples of selflessness. Whether they accept is completely up to them.” Some reflections from the journals of other students taking part in programs at different Year levels demonstrate the qualities that Rob has so eloquently described

Kathryn Down’s Year 9 RE class with Christmas gifts for Embleton Primary

Paris Buti (12.7) (Senior Project) “The Christian Service program has been one aspect of Trinity College that I have viewed as the most important during my time at Trinity. Being a regular volunteer on the Red Cross Soup Patrol and other activities has enabled me to gain an insight into what the less fortunate in society have to endure. It has taught me not to take my privileged life for granted and to work towards a better, more accepting and caring society where the needs of all are treated with equal respect.” Matthew Antonas (11.6) (Sharing Gifts Year 11 Program) “From meeting the residents, I have learnt both individual and general aspects of their lives. Most were struck by war and told me about the importance of education on top of getting a job. I learnt that one lady was a tennis player, another wrote poems and there were a few engineers, even a train conductor. I have also learnt that being old doesn’t mean being ‘dumb’. Once you have worked out a way to overcome the obstacles of deafness or stuttering, it is easy to have a genuine conversation with them.”

Year 11 student Luke Schelfhout helps students at the Noranda Primary School

Nicholas Volk (11.6) (Sharing Gifts Year 11 Program) “I formed a strong relationship with two of the special needs children. They understood and wanted to know more about me, which reflected the positive relationship we had. I heard on their first day back at school in Term 2 the first thing they asked was ‘Is Nick going to be here today?’. I have learnt that even though they have special needs, they are still people who deserve to live normal lives, and no matter how disadvantaged they are, I can learn from them.”

It made me realise that our mainstream society is really disconnected from disabled people and they are often shunned to the side. They are not just, kind of there, not really doing anything or being anyone. They are very special individuals.” Joshua Galvin (11.3) (Sharing Gifts Year 11 Program) “My strongest relationship was with a man with cerebral palsy. He found it difficult to communicate or interact with anyone, which was a limitation at first. However, once I worked around this I got along with him like we had been friends for years.” Joseph Bonavita (8.6) (Our Neighbour Year 8 Program) “Jesus always welcomed kids to come to him so he could teach the word of God and bless them. At Tae Kwan Do, I taught kids new things and although I did not bless them, I believe that there is a similarity between what Jesus did and would do often and what I did.”

James Hoare (8.3) (Our Neighbour Year 8 Program) “I learned that when I helped my dad, he was much less stressed and more relaxed than what he usually was. This was a two person job and at some point in everyone’s life they will need someone else’s help. If people were sick or injured Jesus would always see to their needs and if someone else was struggling with something, Jesus would help them.” When action on behalf of others moves young people to examine the significance of the value of other people and to understand how our relationship with God is at the heart of this compassionate response, Christian Service is truly transformative.

Reflections on the Kimberley Immersion 2012

James Coombs (11.4) and Jacob Higgins (11.2) The Kimberley Immersion takes place in July every second year. This year a group of nine Year 11 students and two staff spent 17 days in Broome and outlying remote Aboriginal communities. We were invited to immerse ourselves in the culture and lifestyle of Aboriginal people and to build relationships with Aboriginal elders who shared their experiences of both hardship and achievement with us. We feel privileged to have had the opportunity to gain an understanding of the richness of Aboriginal culture and the struggles that Aboriginal people have gone through to have their contribution to Australian life acknowledged and respected. Our time in Broome at first centered on NAIDOC celebrations, coordinated by Goollarri media. We took part in the NAIDOC March through the town of Broome and Opening Ceremony at the Shire Council, NAIDOC Week Quiz Night and Awards Night, where the achievements of local Aboriginal people were acknowledged. We also played a couple of games of football with local teams. Through these events we heard stories of the contribution that local Aboriginal people make to their community and the wider community of Broome. We also had some wonderful conversations with Aboriginal elders like Stephen Albert (Bamba) and Kevin Puertolano who made us feel very welcome. Sam Dowsing (11.7) and Liam Flynn (11.2) Our group then split into two, with five of us travelling to the Beagle Bay community north of Broome, and the others travelling south to Bidyadanga. At Beagle Bay we assisted each day in the classrooms of Sacred Heart School and participated in a sports day at Djardjin Lombadina where we also attended the NAIDOC Closing Day Celebration. We ate crocodile, sat around the campfire and listened to stories. One of our reflections from the experiences was how easy it is to judge when you do not 150

know the full story. There was one little boy in the class we were working with who looked very scruffy and whose clothes always seemed dirty. We judged very quickly that he must come from a neglectful home in the community, but on the second day the teacher sent him off to have a shower and get a set of clean clothes, explaining that he lived in a camp in the bush with his family where they did not have washing facilities readily available. This really made us rethink our attitude to this little boy. We also learnt about how difficult it can be in remote communities to choose between the relaxed lifestyle of fishing and camping, which the people love, and the desire to achieve success in terms of broader society. One Aboriginal family at the school (the mother was a teacher assistant and their son was in Year 5) was choosing to move to Broome so their son could have better educational opportunities and there were many sad farewells during the week. Wyatt Gordon (11.7) The group who visited Bidyadanga assisted in the classrooms at La Grange school and they were taken out by an Aboriginal ranger (a Trinity Old Boy) who explained the country to us and helped us catch a feed of mud crabs. We learnt a lot about Aboriginal culture and how important it is to the elders to carry on the traditional practices. In the evenings we attended social gatherings of the community and helped out at a Police Disco. The staff and students made us feel very welcome and we formed strong relationships with the children at school especially through playing sport. One boy from the first day was outside kicking the football. What stood out about him was the fact that he was so skinny, especially in the legs, yet he could kick the ball so high. At first when we spoke to him we thought he had a cold but we later discovered that he had a life threatening throat infection that required treatment at Broome hospital twice a week. This did not faze him and

although he seemed to be struggling, wheezing as he ran, his enthusiastic approach and friendliness inspired us all. Tom Coltrona (11.5) The second week in Broome we met with Aboriginal leaders like Wayne Bergmann, another Trinity Old Boy, who was CEO of the Kimberley Land Council for many years, and Carol Martin MLA who has represented the Kimberley region in State Parliament for 12 years. They shared with us their views on the challenges that Aboriginal people face and how they are working to change things for the better. The fact that the life story of many Aboriginal community leaders involves discrimination and hardship that they have been able to overcome to work for the good of their people is an inspiration.

Matthew Evans (11.7) and Ciaran Murray (11.7) Another highlight was the day we travelled to Derby and attended the Mowanjum Festival, an evening of Aboriginal dance attended by over 200 local people and tourists, where we ate crocodile, ‘roo, and barramundi burgers. The Kimberley Immersion gave us an opportunity to appreciate many aspects of Aboriginal culture and way of life that we were not fully aware of before. We were welcomed into their country and thanked for our contribution. The generosity and openness of Kimberley Aboriginal people will be remembered by us for many years to come. Our thanks must go to Mr Peter Jones and Mrs Marya Stewart for accompanying us on this immersion.

Charlie Nicolay (11.3) We also helped out at the Youth Drop-In Centre, and served breakfast to homeless people at Father McMahon Place, named after our much loved late chaplain Fr Michael McMahon who devoted many years of his life to the Aboriginal people of the Kimberley. At this place a full cooked breakfast is served to up to 80 people, four mornings a week. Many of those are Aboriginal people who come to Broome for medical care or to access facilities here but have nowhere to stay. We visited an Aboriginal aged care home, an Aboriginal rehabilitation centre for people with alcohol and drug addictions and took a tour of Broome Aboriginal Medical Service. All these experiences gave us insights into the health problems faced by Aboriginal people in the Kimberley but also the great work that Aboriginal organisations are doing to address these issues.

Edmund Rice Outreach Mrs Marya Stewart Director of Christian Service The aim of Edmund Rice Outreach is to involve students who have a passion to serve others, in volunteer work and actions in the wider community to raise awareness and build community spirit. The leadership team this year was very ably led by Henry Prior (12.1) supported by Jacob Rees (12.6), Rowan Withers (12.2) and Sean Mariotti (12.1). Their enthusiasm and dedication were outstanding. Some of the events held at school were the Shrove Tuesday pancake stall to raise funds for Project Compassion, the Harmony Day making and giving out of paper cranes to encourage students to appreciate diversity, and the Homeless Sleepout to become more aware of homelessness and raise funds for a homeless drop-in centre. The Homeless Sleepout was attended by a record number of senior students and the leadership team organised and facilitated a wide range of highly effective activities over the evening, with $1750 raised by the 80 students from Years 8 -12 who took part in the event. Activities with external organisations included groups of students volunteering at the Asthma Foundation Freeway Bike Hike, Activ City to Surf Run, and the Rocky Bay Village ‘Walk with Me’ event. Some members assisted Br Phil with the Indigenous after-school program at Edmund Rice Centre, Mirrabooka, and others helped load containers with wheelchairs at Br Olly’s Wheelchairs for Kids. A group of students also made blood donations at Red Cross. Several of the senior members of the group volunteered with Edmund Rice Camps in the holidays and our regular weekly commitment to Red Cross Soup Patrol continued throughout the year with 25 students from Year 12 and 38 from Year 11 volunteering at least once during the year, and many attending three or four times.

Becoming Brothers Retreat During the fifth week of Term 1 our new Year 7 students departed to Camp Kelly in Dwellingup where they took part in the three-day, two-night long Becoming Brothers Retreat. Mr Jim Shackleton Head of Year 7

The objective of this activity is to make the Year 7s feel welcomed into the Trinity College community by providing them with an appreciation of our culture and expectations via our Four Pillars; Spirituality, Culture, Academia and Sport. It was also an opportunity for a large group of boys, many of whom were the only student from the final year of their primary school to attend Trinity, to get to know each other and begin to form the bonds of brotherhood that ultimately bind all Trinity students to each other, not only during their school days but also well into the future. In addition, for many students this was their first overnight stay away from home. This retreat was the first of many that the boys will experience whilst at Trinity College, where we help to instil important everyday values and attitudes that will help guide them in life. The foundations for the retreat were based around the ‘Rules for Christian Living’ (St Paul’s letter to the Romans, Chapter 12); the key words in bold are at the heart of the retreat/camp experience…

Rules for Christian Living

Be sincere in your love for each other. Learn to avoid evil and hold to everything that is good. Love each other as brothers and honour others more than you would yourself. Never give up. Eagerly follow the Holy Spirit and serve the Lord. Let your hope make you glad. Be patient in times of trouble and never stop praying. Take care of people less fortunate than yourself and welcome strangers into your community. Ask God to bless everyone who mistreats you. Learn to forgive and not curse them. When others are happy, be happy with them. When others are sad, be sad with them. Be friendly with everyone. Don’t be proud and feel that you are more clever or stronger than your brothers. Make friends with ordinary people. Don’t mistreat someone who has mistreated you. But try to earn the respect of others and do your best to live at peace with everyone.

157


Becoming Brothers Retreat Key members of the retreat were the Senior Ministers from Year 12, who had been carefully selected as role models and mentors. These senior boys had worked alongside the Year 7 students during Orientation Day, on their first day at school, and in their Pastoral Care Groups every morning. They were on camp to accompany their ‘little brothers’ to mentor and guide them through the retreat. The Senior Ministers’ main role was to help bring St Paul’s words to life by using them as topics for small group discussions held throughout the retreat and to demonstrate the way they live their own lives through this message. The camp element offered a wide range of daytime activities including hiking sections of the Bibbulmum Track, canoeing and raft building as well the all-important task of just getting to know each other. Evening activities included shared meals, quiz night and PCG Challenge. The retreat offered Year 7 students a variety of both small and large group activities and each day was ‘big brother time’ when the students could discuss adversities overcome and challenges that may be ahead, and experience a tangible level of Christian Spirit lived out daily. Introducing this element added a different dimension to the time spent at Dwellingup and the retreat was a great success with the Year 7s. The Year 7s really began to understand what it means to live within a Christian community and that by accepting each other wholeheartedly we facilitate the freedom to grow and become the best we can be, both individually and collectively. The Trinity College Chapel proved to be a focal point for the retreat, with special ceremonies conducted by the Year 12 Senior Ministers to open and close the retreat experience. The contribution made by the Senior Ministers was outstanding. They each adopted the responsibility for a group of eight students and conducted activities and small group discussions. These student leaders modelled excellent behaviour and leadership that the Year 7s could aspire to. Thanks must be given to the Coordinator of Outdoor Education, Mr Brett Silver, for organising key components of the camp. Additional thanks must go to Mr John Taylor for his leadership and management of the Senior Ministers. The effort put in by our external service providers was fantastic and the retreat would not have been as successful without them. Most of all, praise must be given to the Year 7 pastoral care teachers who went above and beyond throughout the retreat, participating in every activity and really ensuring that every boy was cared for. The level of service by all demonstrated to the Year 7s what being a ‘Man for Others’ really means. Mr Jim Shackleton Head of Year 7 158

2011 Indian Pilgrimage The Indian Pilgrimage is a journey of discovery through a land of contrasts where you encounter people who will move your hearts and challenge your understanding of what is really important in life.

The 2011 pilgrimage was certainly this, for all those who took part: Alex Di Bucci (12.4), Timothy Hadwen (12.2), Sean Mariotti (12.1), Henry Prior (12.1), Jacob Rees (12.6), Charlie Roberts (12.6), William Sanders (12.6), Rowan Withers (12.2) and staff Mr Adam Gage, Mr Michael Slacksmith and Mrs Marya Stewart. The pilgrimage touches each person differently. We all come away from India transformed by the experience and there are some experiences that will remain in our hearts for many years to come. It was our fourth day in India and we had spent three hectic days at MITHRA, a home and school for children with physical and mental disabilities, being engaged with the children almost every waking moment. We took a day out to visit the tomb of St Thomas and explore the city of Chennai. When we arrived back mid-afternoon, the children were waiting on the front porch of the school, some to travel to their homes, others just waiting. As soon as they saw us coming through the front gate they broke into squeals of delight and those who could walk ran to meet the boys, surrounding us with their joy. Another moment was an afternoon at Jagruti High School, Mandal, a Christian Brothers school for tribal people. Adam Gage, Michael Slack-Smith and I were invited to join the male staff in their tearoom for chai. Chai was brewed on a little gas burner on a small table at the back of a long room, which seemed more like a storage room. We sat on the wooden benches surrounded by sacks of rice and various other food supplies that were being collected for the 25th anniversary celebrations happening later that week. It was a far cry from the facilities of the Trinity College Staff Lounge, but the hospitality we received in that little room was a lesson in humility and the gift of simplicity.

2011 Indian Pilgrimage Kolkata always takes your breath away. It is a full-blown assault on all your senses and the first day is absolutely intense. Having settled into our rooms at St Mary’s, Dum Dum, we were taken for a bus ride and a walk to Shishu Bhavan, to sign up for our placements with the Missionaries of Charity. Getting off the bus in a crowded street we were about to make our way there when our guide, Jim McGuinis, pulled me aside and drew my attention to a young woman huddled on the corner of the street in front of some street stalls. Her clothing was ragged, with the top half falling off her, exposing her nakedness to the people of the street, a great shame for a woman in India. Jim took me immediately upstairs into a clothing store where we bought a simple house dress. By the time we returned the woman had crossed the street, but I followed her and indicated the dress was for her. She held up her arms and I helped her cover her thin frame. Without the sensitive eyes of our guide we would probably have passed her by, not even noticing her, or if we had, still not knowing how to respond. We certainly gained insight that day on how a simple action can restore the dignity of another human being. Mrs Marya Stewart Director of Christian Service

Madonna and Child Mosaic Ms Rita Basilio Art Coordinator

As part of Trinity College’s 50-year celebrations, 2012 saw the unveiling of the Madonna and Child mosaic. The mosaic was produced by mosaic artist Maureen Elphick. As our Artist in Residence at Trinity College in 2011, Maureen taught mosaic techniques to students in Years 4, 5 and 6, equipping them with skills to enable them to contribute to the production of the Madonna and Child mosaic. These sessions were supported by a dedicated group of mothers who helped with the project. This Trinity project was greatly assisted by a generous donation from the Trinity College Auxiliary. In addition, Trend Ceramics, Tile Boutique and Forezzi Tiles donated tiles for the project. The Trinity mosaic is a contemporary interpretation of the Madonna and Child image depicted in Irish artist Desmond Kyne’s icon of Blessed Edmund Rice that was itself based on the 14th century Byzantine Icon Our Mother of Perpetual Help, and proclaims Mary as the Mother of God (the Irish words on Mary’s Halo Muire Mátair Dé meaning Mary, Mother of God). The mosaic beautifully reminds us of the union of the Mother and Child as a symbol of love and family. It also proclaims the message that Mary, able to comfort Christ in His sufferings, is able to comfort us in ours.

Final mosaic

It was in the 19th century that the Christian Brothers made Mary, under the title of Our Mother of Perpetual Help, their special patroness. The mosaic acknowledges the devotion the Christian Brothers have for Mary, a devotion going back to their founder Blessed Edmund Rice.

Madonna and Child Mosaic On Friday, 8 June the Madonna and Child mosaic was erected in the Junior School undercover area where it will be used as a backdrop for Junior School assemblies and viewed and appreciated by junior and secondary students, parents, staff and members of the local community. This beautiful and unique mosaic will be left to posterity and be known and valued by future generations. Ms Elphick commented, “I am very happy with the final result as I feel I was able to capture both serenity and joy, two important aspects of Christian love. I am also very pleased that the image will be placed in the primary area as this is where you grow young men. The beautiful image of the Madonna and Child will, I hope, leave an indelible mark on each young man so that when they leave Trinity and become grown men they will recognise, seek out and create that same love in their own lives”.

Visual Art Using local artists is a great way of engaging and motivating students in their learning and this year’s mosaic project was a great reflection of what can be achieved. Our Artist in Residence Ms Maureen Elphick imparted her knowledge of mosaic methods to enable students to contribute to the production of a beautiful representation of the Madonna and Child. This was a very successful project with positive outcomes for students and the whole Trinity community. During the year, the visual arts department also hosted an exhibition of pastel drawings of the coastline, produced by local artist Julie Silvester. The exhibition was very popular with students and visitors alike. The artwork was of particular interest to our Year 10 students who used similar art mediums and techniques to produce their own artwork. These local artists have shared their talents and their love of art with our students and the whole Trinity community and there is no doubt we have all benefited from the experience. Our art students participated in a range of exciting art projects this year, several of which were inspired by the Picasso to Warhol exhibition on display at the Art Gallery of WA. Many of our art classes attended excursions to the gallery to view the exhibition. It was a wonderful opportunity for our students to see some of the world’s best modern art here in Perth. Our students were encouraged to create abstract compositions and stylised imagery in the form of paintings and sculptures inspired by the modern masters. Others were inspired by the more contemporary art forms displayed at the Sculpture by the Sea exhibition in Cottesloe. These excursions have provided invaluable learning experiences for our students.

Guys in Groove (GIG)

Ms Aimee Smith Dance Coordinator

GIG has gone from strength to strength this year, receiving an Honourable Mention at the Catholic Performing Arts Festival for their dance Danger Zone. The very successful Dance Night held at Trinity College was a fantastic night of roving dance routines around the school, presenting the boys and the school in a new light. The night began with a flash mob, surprising the audience as they sipped on hot milos and coffee. Some boys also took on the brave challenge of performing their own solos. The final performance for the year, All Aboard, was performed at Presentation Night. The complicated dance routine combined choreography from Ms Smith and moves learnt from breakdance champion Lucas Marie who generously taught the boys some of his tricks.

Trinity College wins the Zenith Award for the ninth consecutive year

This was an exciting year of music making and curriculum development. A further consolidation of Kodaly and Orff music methodologies in the classroom has seen some outstanding progress for the boys from Years 4 to 9. The myriad of concerts that make up the school year showed our students’ musical capabilities to the fullest. New for 2012 was the move to The Ellington for a night of contemporary and jazz music, a sure winner with the boys and parents appreciating the atmosphere that comes from a professional venue. Contempo gave the contemporary music students another chance to strut their stuff in Term 4 with some surprising new talent emerging. The Term 1 Quarry Concert was an evening of entertaining repertoire played with the ever-present threat of rain. Dan Walker’s Vast Sea, Sleeping Mother performed by the combined Trinity/PLC Chorale and accompanied by strings, percussion and piano, was only the second performance in WA of this new work. Later in the year the Senior Chorale would again sing a work by an Australian composer that was new to WA audiences: Kalkadoon by Stephen Leek. As you can read below the Australian singing theme continued in the Middle and Junior Choirs with the participation of Paul Jarman in his own work Volta Do Ma Largo. Congratulations must also go to the Year 12 cohort for their ensemble leadership and individual performances. As for our captains and vice-captains, Alwyn Chan (12.7) has led the strings by example, Joshua Lee (12.4) has demonstrated a high degree of piano technique and musicianship, and Matthew Dixon (12.3) and John Paul Mondelo (12.7) have entertained as a vocal duo and set the bar in vocal solo performance.

Prof Jing Ling-Tam is an innovative and much sought after clinician and conductor in North America, Europe and Southeast Asia. This was only her second visit to Australia. Whether it was the fundamentals of singing, blending a choir, developing range or improving vowel sounds, Prof Jing had a method for all situations and all ages. With her engaging personality combined with her ability as a teacher and vocalist, Prof Jing was able to teach children in both primary and secondary schools how to improve many aspects of their singing and have a good time in the process. Paul Jarman (Composer-in-Residence) Term 2, Week 5, 2012 turned out to be a significant musical week for both the junior and senior music students who experienced our first composer-in-residence. Queensland based composer and performer Paul Jarman taught and inspired on many levels in his first visit to Trinity. The Year 9 music students worked on a class arrangement of Dragon from his Chinese Suite in A Minor as well as Out on the Range, one of the pieces of music Paul Jarman composed for a documentary. During the last session the students had the opportunity to watch parts of the documentary and see how the music they had been learning fitted in with the storyline. The students learnt a great deal about the different roles each instrument has within an ensemble and how to arrange a piece of music to best suit their particular instrument. It was also fantastic to see the students walk away from each session trying to imitate Paul Jarman’s incredible harmonic singing as well as trying to replicate the musical instrument he made out of a straw! Year 10 students took a more analytical path, studying Paul Jarman’s choral work Known Unto God. This is a powerful song of remembrance based on a little girl waiting for her father to come home from World War I. This was a chance for the boys to hear how a composer works with text and musical elements to create interest, variety, cohesion and ultimately meaning in a composition. Year 11 students put their creative performing skills to the test with a class version of the Uigher song Syrian. This included the learning of a new form of scale and the putting together of a class performance arrangement from a melody line and chord chart.

The Middle School Chorale and Year 5/6 Choir had the immense privilege of performing Paul Jarman’s choral piece Volta Do Ma Largo, with the composer performing with them for the Junior and Middle School Music Night. Together with the Senior Guitar Ensemble and Djembes this performance proved a fitting finale to the evening. Paul was also involved with the Junior Vocal Ensemble performance of The Stock-Rider and working with Mr Gordon Dean’s Year 6 class, Paul shaped an inspirational production of Shosholoza, the traditional Zulu song. This performance began with a reading of the 1875 William Henley poem ‘Invictus’, with students humming the theme from Holst’s Jupiter underneath before transitioning into an improvised percussion section and singing of Shosholoza. Workshops with both junior and Year 7/8 boys demonstrated instruments from various world cultures and some science of sound thrown in for good measure; how to make a straw saxophone was extremely popular. Following on from the Melbourne Guitar Quartet, husband and wife classical guitarists ZOO Duo performed on various types and sized guitars before working with both guitar ensembles on their ensemble repertoire.

Performing Arts Festival for Catholic Schools and Colleges Congratulations to all performers who participated in the Performing Arts Festival. Trinity’s continued success in this festival is due to the number of participants who perform at their best. In total we had 52 Honourable Mentions and 56 Certificates of Merit. Along with the six section wins, the breadth and depth of these entries have helped Trinity gain the Zenith Award for most outstanding school in the festival for the ninth consecutive year. Particularly satisfying results were obtained in the concert band, entertainment band and instrumental ensemble sections. Trinity strings made the play-offs for the first time as a string ensemble with Alwyn Chan (12.7) and Max Benson (11.7) leading the way in the Bach Concerto in D Major for two Violins. Concussion, not for the first time, also competed in the ensemble play-offs. Swing Band I won the Entertainment section for the first time with a well-blended sonorous jazz sound that impressed the adjudicator. The Trinity/Mercedes Wind Orchestra also took out the Concert Band section for the first time in a number of years. Their tight ensemble playing of Celtic Ritual and Quad City Stomp was a marvellous step up from their previous performance at the ABODA Band Festival.


The choral association with Mercedes, which continued on from last year’s success, was again fruitful. Stunning performances of Omnia Sol and Kumbaya with soloist Timothy Soon saw a return of the Secondary Choral Shield. The Trinity Senior Chorale did equally well in the Liturgical section. A separate mention must be made of Matthew Dixon (12.3) and Emma Oorshot’s (11.63 Mercedes) heartfelt duet from Wicked, which won the solo/duet vocal section. There were of course many other outstanding performances. Some of these deserving mention are: Max Benson (11.7) (Chapman String Scholarship), James Newcombe (9.3) and Michael Waller (9.2) (violin duet), Lachlan Harders (9.5) (percussion solo), Alwyn Chan (12.7) (violin solo), numerous piano, brass, woodwind, percussion and vocal solos and ensembles, the Middle School Chorale, Trinity/Mercedes Vocal Ensemble, GIG creative dance and the Trinity/Mercedes Orchestra. This was truly a team effort for which I thank the students and music staff for their unwavering efforts and indeed their talents.

Design and Technology Mr Ray Archibald Head of Design and Technology

The CO2 Model Dragster State Championships were held at Claremont showgrounds and we entered our top four cars from the Year 9 Design and Communication class into the competition. Thomas Lyons (9.3) had the best car performance, finishing in seventh place and just missing out on the national finals to be held in Queensland. Finally, I wish to thank all of the Design & Technology staff for their dedication, hard work and professionalism in what has been another successful and productive year for Design & Technology at Trinity. Mr Ray Archibald Head of Design and Technology

As the curtain falls for our 2012 Year 12 students it is amazing to think back to when they arrived here as young boys in Year 8. I can recall the delight and astonishment on their faces when we demonstrated our new laser cutting machines and robotics equipment used in the Treacy Centre for the very first time. Now as they leave us as young adults, they operate these machines independently with confidence, as well as other new technologies that they have learned to use as a part of their daily life at Trinity. It is very satisfying for us as teachers to have helped in the development of a student’s skills, whether it is in a practical context or in new technologies used in school today. This is especially important, as currently in Australia and in particular WA, we have a severe shortage of skilled workers.

Year 7 Materials Students with their model plane designs

This year for the first time we ran a Year 12 Certificate 1 Wood Furnishing course, which proved very popular with students. This practical course provides a platform for students who wish to pursue a career in industry or further study at TAFE. Mr Glenn Christiansen was responsible for the planning, preparation and teaching of this unit, which was most appreciated by the boys. This course complements the Certificate 1 Engineering (Metals) where this year boys designed and manufactured ‘drifting trikes’ supervised by Mr Paul Van Vliet. Paul is also responsible for the Year 12 stage 2A/B Materials course where students have produced some excellent grandfather clocks and duchess mirrors using a variety of timbers, including sheoak, Tasmanian oak and jarrah. I’m sure that all parents will be very proud to have these beautiful furniture items to display in their homes.

Year 9 D&T Students display their CO2 cars which they designed and made for a competition. Harrison Hochstadt (9.7), Zen Best (9.6), Luke Pereria (9.5) and Jake Reid (9.7)

Thirty-two of our Year 9 students were entered in the Science and Engineering Challenge held at Curtin University this year. Students were selected from both Science and Engineering Systems classes to represent Trinity. They were divided into teams of four and given practical problem solving exercises to complete using scientific and engineering principles. We secured a top 4 position on the day just one point ahead of Scotch College and all boys are to be congratulated on a fine effort.

Debating Mr Richard Herrmann Debating Coordinator

This year was a great one for debating at Trinity College. For the first time in recent memory, we were able to field multiple teams at every level of the WA Debating League. All our boys represented Trinity with pride, impressing audiences with their humble yet convincing style. Our Year 12 team illustrated their experience with several standout performances this season. After winning all the debates in their division against St Hilda’s, Wesley and Shenton College, the boys gained entry into the finals of the competition. They performed strongly in the octofinals against Scotch, but lost in the quarter-finals against Perth Modern’s impressive team. Despite their tough loss at the end, the boys’ achievements truly demonstrated their status as one of the top teams in the State. A special mention should go to Debating Captain Jeremy Ciccarelli (12.3) who led the team with distinction. Our Year 11 team also performed admirably, given their lack of experience. They debated particularly well against first teams from John XXIII and Christ Church. Having gained valuable insight and lots of practice, they will be formidable competitors next year. The junior debating teams gave an excellent start to the season with our enthusiastic and conscientious debaters. Given that we were well represented by two skilled junior teams, the atmosphere in every debate was filled with anticipation and excitement. It was always a delight for both parents and teachers to watch the boys debate. Congratulations to all junior debaters for their enthusiasm and efforts during this year’s debating season.

192

It was also an exciting year for novice debating. For our Year 7 boys it was their first chance to step up to the plate and get stuck into high school debating, and for our Year 8 boys this was their year to prove that they were serious competitors in the novice division. There were many lively and exciting meetings held over Tuesday lunchtimes for our novice debaters. The boys had many a heated discussion over topics such as ‘School detention should be banned’ and ‘We should pay more for water’. The younger boys showed how eager they were to be serious competitors as they worked incredibly hard to research and plan arguments for tricky topics such as ‘Fairy tales are bad for children’ and ‘International adoption does more harm than good’. Both teams fought a tough battle all season and we were incredibly proud to see each team take home four victories for the season. We narrowly missed out on finals this year but the stage is set for some polished debates in 2013. I would like to personally thank all the boys for working so hard this season and for being true role models for Trinity College. I would also like to extend my sincere appreciation to the parents and supporters for their overwhelming support at each debate, as I truly believe that this support in the debating rooms helped push our teams to so many victories. Finally, I thank Ms Elise Kukulka and Mrs Harris Allan for their invaluable involvement this year. Their service to debating has been first rate and none of our success would have been possible without their organisation and commitment. Mr Richard Herrmann Debating Coordinator

Drama Ms Lisa Laurino Drama Specialist

A huge thank you must be given to Miss Elise Kukulka for all the time and effort she has put into the subject. Next year we will be progressively introducing Stage 1 Drama into our Year 10 elective units, in preparation for a Year 11 Stage 2 Drama option in 2014. It has been wonderful to see the enthusiasm and energy the students have put into drama this year and it is only going to get better. Ms Lisa Laurino Drama Specialist

It has been another exciting and progressive year for drama at Trinity College. Students from Years 8-10 have been introduced to a range of dramatic conventions and theatre styles. Not only has this furthered the students’ knowledge and skills in drama but it is also preparing them for the future when these skills will be an asset.

Drama Students

The Year 10 class wrote, performed and produced some truly engaging films as part of their Term 3 short film program. The students were introduced to a new style of acting and performing for the camera, which required a different set of acting skills from live theatre. These films were entered into the TC Short Film Competition, which was a fantastic event. The boys also completed a unit of movement and performance in Term 4, allowing them to learn basic break and movement skills to incorporate with acting. These skills were then put to the test in an enthusiastic final task of performing a live music video in groups. The Year 8 and 9 drama classes were taught the techniques of improvisation and finished the term by participating in theatre sport activities to put their skills into practice. The Year 8s also performed one-act plays, while the Year 9s studied melodrama. This is a style of acting where the plot and characters are exaggerated and this was something the year 9s were almost too good at! Trinity College also had three separate drama clubs this year, Year 11-12, 9-10 and 7-8, where students would spend one lunch hour a week learning a variety of skills used in drama, as well as participating in theatre sports and other drama activities.

Acknowledging Our Blessings

It was my privilege to serve Trinity College in an Acting role as Director of Education Support this year, when it was necessary for Ms Lissa Coleman to take extended sick leave. In the void left by Lissa’s absence, several facts became increasingly obvious to me, but none moreso than the importance of teamwork, the importance of never taking anything for granted and acknowledging our blessings, and the importance of addressing the cause of a problem, not just the symptoms.

Lissa’s absence has made us all aware that we sometimes take for granted all of the things that are done at Trinity in support of the students. None could be anything but impressed by the range of services the MRC team provides to Trinity by identifying students in need of support, going into classes to provide that support, helping teachers to differentiate programs, writing curriculum adjustment plans, running the QuickSmart program, designing and creating support materials, conducting, modifying and supervising assessments, accompanying students on excursions and camps, attending case management meetings, communicating with teachers, parents and specialists, keeping detailed records, and writing funding applications. The team’s compassion, ability to develop rapport with students, commitment to equity of opportunity, initiative and willingness to go beyond the call of duty is very much a part of the school ethos. I hereby acknowledge and thank Lissa, Ricki Boe, Catherine Ryan, Jane Pekaar, Elizabeth Smith, Samantha Pekaar, Nicole Andrews, Marieke Aan Den Boom, Korimako McFarland and Darlene Levett for their valuable contribution.

Teamwork Teamwork is an essential ingredient at Trinity and it was never more important in the MRC than it was this year. I would like to thank the dedicated education assistants and Ms Ricki Boe for their patience as I took faltering steps towards filling very big shoes and for doing whatever was necessary, in challenging circumstances, to ensure that a high standard of education support continued to be provided for students in Years 4 to 12. In Term 2, Ms Korimako McFarland joined the MRC team, bringing particular expertise in the area of mathematics education. In Term 3, we welcomed Mrs Darlene Levett who ably took on the work of Mrs Catherine Ryan while she was on long service leave. We were also delighted to have Mrs Marieke Aan Den Boom re-join the MRC team in Term 3. The MRC team is aided by a number of specialists who enhance the quality of support offered to students. I had the pleasure of working with skilled psychologists, Malini de Silva and Mairead Healy in Semester 1 and Ioanna Culleton and Aveen O’Brien in Semester 2. It is a testament to their dedication that barely a beat was missed in the support of students in the handover of caseloads. Mr Gary Malarkey (’70) and Ms Karrene McLernon provided valuable insight into the needs of our Indigenous students. Ms Jacqui Cole from WAIDE and Ms Rebecca Hunt from Vision Education have contributed significantly to the support of students. The boys also benefited from the input of the Therapy Focus team led by Natalie Retamal who ran a Thursday lunchtime social skills program. The guidance and support of Tanya Dickson, Students with Disability Consultant from the CEO, was invaluable this year. Tanya ran several professional learning sessions for staff on catering for students with special needs and played an important role in case conferences and funding applications.

Education Support Mary Rice Learning Centre Mrs Ricki Boe continues to do a sterling job in catering for Years 4-6 students who require remediation and/or extension. Activities have included research into animals under threat, photo competition entries, script writing, robotics and the Evening of Eminence. Unfortunately, due to Lissa’s absence, it was not possible for Future Problem Solving to be offered this year, but a team of boys did take part in the Hale School Philosothon. Jack Biasin (8.1), Joshua De Souza (9.1), Andrew Bottega (10.2) and Thomas Coltrona (11.5) represented Trinity in a discussion of topics such as happiness, euthanasia and generational responsibility for the past. Thomas was placed first in the Year 11 Boy division and Jack Biasin (8.1) placed third in the Year 8 Boy division. MRC staff set a fine example for the boys as lifelong learners. Throughout the year they attended a variety of professional development sessions addressing specific difficulties and disabilities (such as autism, dyslexia and dyspraxia), programs designed to support specific skill development (including Wordshark and Alpha to Omega) and behaviour management. We congratulate Mrs Elizabeth Smith on gaining her Certificate IV in Education Support and undertaking the Diploma of Education Support, and Ms Samantha Pekaar on gaining her Master’s degree. At Trinity we encourage respect for differences and an appreciation that any one of us can find ourselves in need of support. Any one of us can be healthy and able one day, unwell or disabled the next. Boys are encouraged to see the person before the disability and to this end Mr Jonathan Erridge visited the school to increase student understanding of cerebral palsy. Joseph Turner (8.4), who became deaf after contracting meningitis, was selected to give the opening speech at the launch of Deafness Awareness Week in Perth and spoke about the impact of cochlear implants on his life. Joseph won the admiration of all present for his oral skills, determination and accomplishments. I would like to thank the MRC staff for swinging into action when a student is temporarily incapacitated by illness or accident and helping boys to make up for missed lessons, including scribing when necessary.

students suppress background noise and attend to target stimuli); and in the Junior School, Hear & Learn, a surround sound technology program that optimises the listening environment, was trialled for a number of weeks. Another focus was increased use of technology in helping students to compensate for learning difficulties. All members of the Trinity staff were offered the opportunity to learn about Read & Write Gold through weekly tutorials and many boys had this program installed on their laptops. The Wordshark program was installed for a number of boys to help them develop phonic skills. Touch-typing programs were purchased and installed to help boys increase their keyboarding speed. I would like to thank Mr Banks and the staff for the opportunity to work at Trinity, for their faith in my ability to oversee the committed work of the MRC staff in Lissa’s absence, and for their support in my attempts to improve educational outcomes for the boys.

Addressing the Cause When addressing the symptoms of a problem (e.g. difficulty with reading, writing or calculating) it is very easy to overlook the cause. This year, a focus of the Education Support program was the auditory processing problems experienced by many boys. Auditory processing problems can make it difficult for students to gain information vital for learning, to sustain concentration, and to perform to potential. MRC purchased The Listening Program (a music-based listening therapy program), and Lisn and Learn (auditory training software designed to help 196

Certificate II Business Mr John Overton Certificate II Business Coordinator

The Certificate II Business course is an alternative learning environment in which students have the opportunity to participate in a variety of projects. The course is a comprehensive and inclusive one with a strong emphasis on developing life skills and strategies for dealing with challenges. Emphasis is also placed on providing students with the opportunity to become workplace ready before graduation and to progress into a career pathway that complements the student skillset. Students enrolled in Certificate II Business have Years 11 and 12 to complete a Nationally Recognised Qualification that they can use to gain entry into a higher learning institution like TAFE or join the workforce through an apprenticeship or traineeship. It is a fantastic head start for the boys involved as it can give them an advantage over other candidates when it comes to employability and enrolments. The course is structured with 13 separate competencies, each with different performance criteria, required skills and knowledge. Once a student demonstrates the essential criteria through assessments, he is deemed competent, and on completion of all 13 competencies, he is accredited with the qualification.

time management and organisational skills that will improve his confidence and ensure he is work place ready before graduation. Another key aspect to this year has been the utilisation of Camp Kelly in Dwellingup where students maintained the olive grove and participated in other lifestyle based skills, such as cooking, team building games and leadership scenarios. The camps have offered a chance to put things into perspective and realise how fortunate we are to attend and work at such an amazing school with an abundance of opportunities. I would like to thank all the boys involved in the Certificate II Business course for the hard work and the enthusiasm they have demonstrated throughout each challenge placed in front of them. I look forward to continuing our relationship in 2013. John Overton Certificate II Business Coordinator

During the two-year course students take part in many different business and enterprise related tasks that are centred on each competency. For example, TC Wash & Shine is a car washing business the Year 11 group created to generate funds for Project Compassion. A business plan and marketing strategy were designed by the students who washed the cars of staff members twice a week to satisfy client needs. At times customer demand was too great for capacity, which highlighted the high standard of work the students demonstrated. Other enterprise ideas included the Trinity College Koi farm, cycling kits, water bottles and the design and delivery of the Year 12 Ball tickets.

Italian Exchange Trip to Italy Mr David Ceccarelli Italian Specialist

Junior School The piccoli signorini of the Junior School have explored various topics this year in Italian. As their new Italian teacher since Term 2, it has been my absolute pleasure working with them to discover and study the Italian language and culture. The students have looked at cultural differences and similarities between Australia and Italy through the topics of food, Italian households and native animals. In Term 4, the Year 6s will have a chance to put into practice what they have learnt in class by purchasing a gelato (Italian ice-cream) from an ice-cream kiosk. Having just arrived at Trinity College, I’m looking forward to continuing teaching such an important and mind-opening language.

Mr Jean-Marc Rousset (’69) Italian Specialist

Senior School As a result of Italian having been made compulsory in Year 7, this year has witnessed a larger group than usual of students from Years 11 and 12 in our Italian classes. An attractive aspect of studying Italian in Year 12 is 10% added on to the WACE Italian mark and last year this enabled one of our students to win a scholarship to study at Curtin University.

In March 2011, Eliott Iustini (12.1) went on an exchange to Loreto this is his story. On 28 November 2011 I departed on my journey for a two-month exchange to Loreto, Italy, with a family I had never met in my life. It was a daunting prospect at first, but as things got going life with my new family was one of the best experiences of my life. The famous Italian Christmas, playing soccer with new mates, experiencing snow whilst at school and getting to know the culture, which Italians pride themselves so much on, were many facets of my exchange that made it such an unforgettable experience. Living with my Italian family and being privileged to have been given an exchange brother my age (Matteo) and a younger exchange sister (Vera) enabled me to gain an insight into the life of the youth in Italy. During my stay in Italy I met many new people who I’ll never forget. These included exchange students from Australia who were about to experience the same situation as myself, the many young people I met whilst playing soccer with Villa Musone soccer team (which embraced me with open arms), all of the kids at my Italian school, and last of all my host family who helped me have such an amazing time during my stay. Maurizio Gaudrabbasi (exchange dad) was one of the most significant figures during my stay as he treated me like his own son, teaching me the Italian ways, although we had our differences supporting different soccer teams (Juventus vs Roma) Forza Roma! Overall, my exchange trip to Loreto, Italy, was an amazing and insightful experience, which I believe will never leave me. I encourage all younger students to consider doing the exchange or hosting an exchange student as it is a great experience. Eliott Iustini (12.1)

In Term 2 of this year my wife and I went to Europe for long service leave and fell in love with Sicily. Sicilians are a very warm and caring people. We also enjoyed Milano and Lago di Como not to forget the beautiful Monte Bianco at Courmayeur.

Lion Dance in the Library

The National Year of Reading To welcome students back to the 2012 academic year and acknowledge the National Year of Reading as well as Chinese New Year, we invited a Chinese dance troupe to perform a lion dance. The lions had the boys enthralled as they danced and performed acrobatically, accompanied by the very loud sound of drums and symbols. The focus on literature and literacy across the nation in 2012 was exciting and gave us wonderful opportunities for our school library to extend our regular activities and multiple opportunities to further engage our school community in literacy. Our emphasis is always on building a community of readers through Resources, Education, Adventure, Diversity, and Success. We know from the books borrowed that boys like to read books that reflect their image of themselves and what they aspire to be and do; books that make them laugh and that appeal to their sense of mischief; fiction that focuses on action more than on emotions; books in series because they sustain engagement by allowing the readers to ‘see what’s up’ with characters they have come to care about. Boys are also passionate about fantasy, science fiction and dystopia, and they like to read graphic novels and cartoons because they are visual and provide a “multimedia experience”. We also know that boys like to read in a welcoming and supportive culture. Becoming good readers has little to do with reading difficult books and everything to do with the amount of reading the boys do, so we let boys choose books even if they are below their reading levels because we don’t want them to give up on reading altogether for any amount of time. This is how we build a community of readers and reading amongst our boys.

PL Duffy Library Resource Centre During Term 2 we implemented a major library database conversion from eLibrary to Oliver. Our new library catalogue is a relational database that includes a variety of interconnected modules that allows library staff and users to pull information together based on queries. Users can see information housed in different sections of the database on a single screen. Seamless integration between system modules streamlines library processes. A customised ‘Library News Page’ provides library teaching staff with the ability to promote new resources, curriculum materials, services and library events, literacy and other fun educational activities. The facility to catalogue and access websites through the database is also a new feature. The library catalogue also contains information about its users and their borrowing history and is connected to the school’s intranet. The library catalogue can be accessed by students, staff and parents via tccentral through the use of their personalised passwords.

We were fortunate to have Mr Norman Jorgensen as our ‘writer in residence’ in the library for one week during Term 3. Norman addressed all the Years 7, 8 and 9 classes as well as some Year 10 boys. They were engrossed as they listened to him speak about stories from his childhood and aspects of his writing process, and enjoyed hearing him read excerpts from his books.

•

Rachel McSweeney, MasterChef contestant 2011 and Trinity College parent, was another guest speaker the library hosted during Term 3. Rachel dazzled the boys with a lunchtime cooking demonstration. Focusing on healthy eating and ‘brain food’ she whizzed up a protein shake and choc fruit dip and then prepared a chicken couscous salad, a more substantial snack the boys could easily prepare at home. All food was consumed by boys attending the demonstration.

Usage of Library and Library Resources For the 2012 academic year an average of 27 classes booked and used the library on a weekly basis. An average of 78 students visited the library during the week, separate from their classes, totalling 3 120 individual student visits for the year. Individual student visits to the library range from book selection, research, sitting for tests, using the photocopier or printer, private study, and reading or accessing the daily newspaper. Our circulation average per week is 172 loans of materials. Finally I would like to thank the library team, Teacher Librarian Elizabeth Lawless, Emma McLeavie and Jena McDowall. Our library support staff members create such a welcoming atmosphere in the library and make a difference to the everyday life of our students. Their energy, continued support, care and dedication is inspiring. Mrs Harris Allan Teacher Librarian Coordinator

Maths Mr Geoff Jamieson Head of Mathematics Learning Area

Head of Mathematics Learning Area I would like to begin this report by congratulating the collective team of teachers we have in our mathematics department. The continued effort and enthusiasm shown by our staff has culminated in the success of our students in the 2011 WACE exams. This includes Calum Braham (’11), Jonathan Chung-Wah-Cheong (’11), Jack Dewsbury (’11) and Joseph Clear (’11) all being awarded a Certificate of Distinction in Mathematics 3CD. Also the group of students who studied Mathematics Specialist 3CD achieved a result that placed Trinity in the top 10 schools in WA. These results are achieved by the dedicated effort of all staff throughout the years these students were at Trinity College.

Maths Week

While acknowledging staff performance, I would like to congratulate Mr Paul Presser who assumed the role of Acting Head of the Mathematics Learning Area during Semester 1. He carried out his duties very professionally and kept the department running smoothly. Mr Presser’s position as Middle School Coordinator was in turn covered by Miss Susie Edwards and Miss Sarah Pontre who assumed the position for a term each. Both of these staff members very ably carried out the leadership position. This year the mathematics department has undertaken the full implementation of the National Curriculum for students in Years 7 to 10. This has meant some compromises. Firstly, our Years 7 and 8 students currently have only three mathematics periods per week and this is insufficient class time to cover the full course for the year. Secondly, as this is the first year, students do not have the full background of knowledge that successive groups of students will have by studying many years of the National Curriculum courses. Over the next few years we will have to continually adjust our programs for the year in response to the changing background knowledge of the students we will teach.

Maths Week

The mathematics department is able to offer our students the opportunity to be involved in a number of competitions and the results of the efforts of our students is given on the following page. 201

Science Mr Tim Blake Head of Science

Calum Braham (’11), that was the name we all came back to in 2012. What a performance from an exceptionally gifted young man; Trinity’s first Beasley Medal winner and first prize winner as the top Physics student. Calum is an inspiration to all the aspiring young physicists who will follow in his footsteps and enjoy the excellent tutelage of his science teachers, particularly Mr Mark Dodd. With the final draft of the Australian Curriculum presented we have been able to assess the differences between the current and intended course. As the WA representatives were able to steer the final format into one that is very similar to that of the current outcomes we will be able to offer a continuation of the science program currently offered with a minimum of changes. However, we feel that the level of science offered in each Year is lower than that offered previously. The significant change for us will be the requirement to cover the four main areas of science, as well as greater emphasis on Science Investigation. The inclusion of science as a Human Endeavour area will also need some thought. Implementation will start in 2013 with the Year 7 course and then the rest of the Year levels will follow in 2014. This should lead into the upper school courses that, once again, are very similar to that currently offered. The Year 10 students are put under a great deal of pressure to choose pathways in upper school. We always encourage them to take a science subject of any sort appropriate to their level of achievement. Many struggle with Physics when they would be better off taking Biology or Human Biology. Hopefully they realise the job prospects for science graduates are far better than any other course of study, despite the perceived difficulty of studying science.

The 2A2B Biology course continues to offer many exciting and varied experiences outside the classroom through the extensive excursions and field studies. The annual Biology Year 11 Camp to Dryandra and the Stirling Ranges was most rewarding with the best display of wildflowers that we have ever encountered. This was backed up with excellent encounters with the extremely rare animals in the Barna Mia enclosure at Dryandra. The vegetation transect to the top of Bluff Knoll was the highlight of the trip and the views were magnificent despite the less than ideal weather. The Year 10.3 students were treated to a fascinating presentation of forensic science in the library. Such is the success of this activity that it is now an annual event. Astronomy continued to offer many exciting experiences such as rocketry and the helium balloon launch that rose to over 35km. The chase to collect the balloon lasted all day and ended near Jerramungup, near Fitzgerald National Park but was an absolute triumph and greatly enjoyed by all who participated. The video and stills were stunning and a great launch activity for the new Astronomy & Space Science option. Our candidate to attend the United Space School in Houston, Texas, was Blake D’Souza (11.2) who had a most marvellous time and has a separate article in this publication describing the school. Blake and Zen Vakil (11.4) are also candidates in the National Youth Science Forum, which is a prestigious gathering of students from all over Australia that discusses matters relating to the impact of science on society. Tim Blake Head of Science

The chemistry laboratory finished its refit and looks excellent with the new expanded floor space and facilities. With the imminent biology lab refit we will finish an extensive rebuilding program investing modern and stimulating facilities for science education at Trinity.

Astronomy

Leo Triplet by Ryan Soares (11.7) The Leo Triplet is a small triplet of galaxies that is found in the Constellation of Leo, the lion. The Triplet consists of two intermediate spiral galaxies, M65 and M66 seen at the bottom left and right, and an unbarred spiral galaxy, NGC 3628, which is on the top right. The Galaxy Triplet is 35 million light years away! The image was created by combining six separate image frames to produce a mosaic. Each frame consisted of 20 images in each of the four filters, combined together. That is a total of 480 images! 205


Astronomy & Space Sciences Mr Bill Cooper Observatory Manager

In the shadow of the moon

It has been a very full year for astronomy and space science at Trinity. It was ten years ago that the moon’s shadow plunged a small tract of Australia into daytime darkness and at the time of writing we are anticipating our Wednesday 14 November expedition to Cairns to observe the Queensland total solar eclipse. It is not a given in astronomy that we will be successful in our observation. Astronomy can be a very fickle mistress, but you have to be present to be in with a chance. Wednesday 6 June saw a small band of astronomy club students standing in the Trinity oval car park to observe the Transit of Venus. The sky was cloudy and it rained intermittently, but surprisingly everyone there got to see the disk of Venus travelling across the face of the sun. Only six transits of Venus have ever been observed by mankind. The last was eight years ago. I was at Hale school then and nearly all of the junior school and the astronomy club observed the event. This time the media circus went to town and there was far more interest, probably because the next transit won’t be until 2117. We have a magnificent telescope in the observatory so why spend time and money chasing these elusive events? Well, although the Brockwell observatory is capable of taking fantastic images that are really useful for further research, nothing can compare with seeing these things for oneself, being present with reality. Who would be happy with only ever seeing postcards of sunsets? Astronomer and monk John Dobson thinks that when we look at animals, plants and our surroundings we have four billion years of evolution that inform us about these familiar things, but when we look at an emission 206

nebula or a galaxy through a telescope our minds have nothing to tell us about these things and we experience a gap in the constant chatter of our minds, and a moment to experience the other. To this end we have bought a rather nice 16 inch Dobsonian telescope to be permanently stored at Camp Kelly for our dark sky astronomy camps.

for Radio Astronomy Research was so enthusiastic about our project that they purchased an Arduino based GeigerMuller tube for us. We have observed the world from 35km up, not outer space, but near space, a hostile environment where your blood would boil and the sky appears black because there are so few air molecules to scatter light.

Paul Shaw (11.2) and Ryan Soares (11.7) our current astronomy scholars have been excellent ambassadors for the school. They ran the Junior School astronomy camp recently; a lot of planning and hard work went into providing a night of activities. Ryan recently won the prestigious Gemini observatory imaging competition. The judges were impressed by his scientific and aesthetic arguments for the target that he chose and consequently the 8m Hawaiian telescope will be imaging the sky for Ryan. There is a picture of one of Ryan’s images taken with the Brockwell telescope in this year’s Annual. Paul is discovering the challenges of astro-spectrophotography. His work consists of mostly finding out what doesn’t work, but this is also a valuable path of scientific research.

This year saw the death of Neil Armstrong. It’s difficult for students to comprehend the world in which American astronauts were sent to the moon. No iPads, no iPhones, no mobile phones, no gps or home computers for that matter. I remember looking at the Apollo command module in the Smithsonian. All of the gauges are analogue dials, not an LCD screen in sight, and yet this technology got us to another world. Talking to Harrison Schmitt, the last man on the Moon in Apollo 17, he said that all of the astronauts assumed that we would have colonies on Mars and the moon by now, probably we would be mining the asteroids and sending out exploratory manned missions to the outer solar system. Instead we are all inheritors of the society that knows everything that Paris Hilton or the Kardashians are up to, a world awash in tweets about the most mundane. To counter this, Mars One a Dutch startup company, intends to use the financial power of the media to start a colony on Mars by 2023. It seems a long shot, but it was exactly this philosophy that led to the Ansari X prize and Burt Rutan’s SpaceShipOne, the first human spaceflight in a privately developed and operated vehicle. So watch this space…

We have recently added three narrowband filters – Ha, S(II) and O(III) – to the Brockwell telescope. These filters allow us to view the sky in very narrow light frequencies and are a boon in combating the increasing light pollution we are experiencing here. After the success of our high altitude balloon launch last year the Year 10 astronomy class left Trinity at 4.00am on Tuesday 25 September to launch our second attempt at dawn from Hillman Farm, Darkan. This time we measured external temperatures, background radiation and air pressure. This is our first attempt at sensing and data logging via the wonderful world of Arduino. Arduino is a small microprocessor with digital and analogue inputs and outputs that can be programmed. Luke Di Dio (9.1) designed the circuitry for our digital altimeter and wrote the software. These things are so small that next year we hope to recover much more data from the stratosphere with a vastly reduced payload. The International Centre

At least the curiosity rover is working flawlessly and tirelessly in Gustav crater, determining the geological record for Mars. With an RTG power supply instead of solar panels it could have a long life on Mars. If Mars One is successful then the curiosity could still be active when the first humans arrive. Mr Bill Cooper Observatory Manager

Launch Day

207


The United Space School Student Trip On Saturday 21 July 2012 I arrived in Houston, Texas, to attend the United Space School (USS). The USS is a program run by the Foundation for International Space Education (FISE), is affiliated with NASA, and is charged with the mission stated on its website: “To provide space-based education to international students, while offering an introduction to the aerospace industry”. While at the USS we were based at the University of Houston, Clear Lake, during the day and at all other times I stayed with a host family that not only took good care of me, but went to considerable lengths to make me feel at home, especially when Perth was on the other side of the world! Basically the USS brought together about 44 different students from 22 different countries, with one boy and one girl selected from each country. The primary aim of the school was to plan a hypothetical, yet viable mission to Mars. After a series of initial interviews and discussions students were split into one of five teams to streamline the process of decision-making, as well as to allow students to explore their own skills and work with others of similar talents and strengths. The Yellow team was in charge of the overarching mission control, pertaining to the financial and legal issues of the undertaking. The Blue and Green teams were responsible for the exploration of the Martian surface, and the habitation of the astronauts respectively. The Maroon team oversaw the journey from Earth to Low Earth Orbit, at which point the Red team, which I had the privilege of being in, took over the spacecraft’s flight to Mars. Each team was mentored by either an ex-student of the school or a specialist, and this ensured that the teams didn’t stray too far off track. Their advice was greatly appreciated.

208


The teamwork patterns were originally disorganised and chaotic, but as the days progressed, teams got wiser and more efficient at handling time and delegating responsibility. It was an extremely valuable learning experience in terms of teamwork skills. Each team had to work in separate rooms, with minimal but designated times of contact between the teams. Essential aspects of the program included liaising and listening with other teams to ensure one team’s designs fitted the requirements and specifications of the other, as well as further developing leadership and communication skills. As you would imagine in a room of scientifically-minded youth, there were a lot of wacky and contradicting ideas, such as a space elevator, water ballast rockets, nuclear power and placing a nuclear reactor in the middle of the crew module! As a culmination, each team member had to present before a panel of NASA engineers and scientists. This was slightly daunting, yet nonetheless a worthwhile experience. Having to answer questions from these experts put significant pressure on all students, but they were more knowledgeable students for it.

Blake D’Souza talks about the United Space School at Assembly

A typical day started at 07.45am, when we would receive lectures on a variety of topics, ranging from propulsion to space law, from human physiology and psychology to space suit design, form nanotechnology to exo-planets. The subject matter could not have been more gripping or diverse. These were all given by NASA engineers and designers, who were experts right at the very top of their fields, and were eagerly absorbed by all students of the school. A highlight of the program was the mock challenger mission, where half the students were sent to mock mission control modules, and the other half to a mock spaceship. It was then the job of the unified team to fly and land the fully simulated computerised craft on first the moon, then Mars. The catch was that the only contact between the two halves was through a single microphone set. This was truly an unforgettable experience.

The United Space School Student Trip Interwoven with the program was a series of field trips, where the students got to explore NASA’s Johnson Space Center and vehicle storage facilities, and see the Saturn V rocket, which was an impressive 111m long and weighed in excess of 2.8 million kg. We also toured the Houston Museum of Natural Sciences, one of the largest scientific museums in the world, as well as the AdAstra Rocket Company, which is currently designing a brand new system of propulsion and is on the verge of making it viable. This is a highly efficient plasma-based technology, which has the potential to revolutionise human spaceflight! And when you are so physically close to this kind of technology, it really is special. This, in addition to listening to influential speakers like astronaut Leroy Chao and other former commanders of the International Space Station made this experience truly surreal. The cultural diversity added a whole new dimension to my experience. The notion of meeting people from different corners of the globe, coming from vastly different education systems, with different accents, desires, traditions, beliefs, and outlooks than myself was really a wholesome experience. It served to broaden my perspective of others and suited my enjoyment of other cultures. There was a special day designated as the’ culture fair’, where a representative of each country present was required to present some sort of talent related to their culture, be it dancing singing or poetry recital, as well as preparing a dish that is native to their country. This was a truly enlightening experience. There was also the aspect of exploring the American and Texan cultures, which was another worthwhile bonus. If I was to summate my two weeks in Houston, I would not use the words educational, informative, intellectual, although these would be apt descriptors. Rather, I would say it was enriching, simply and truly enriching. I would like to encourage the younger boys, in Years 7 to 10, who are interested in science and astronomy, to pursue this opportunity in the future. I guarantee you, it is a worthwhile one. A big thanks goes out to my host family the Livingston’s: Ed and Rowena and their children Sydney and Tyler, the people at FISE, Mr Burgess, Mr Banks, Mr Cooper and Mr Blake, without whom this experience, which I will cherish for a long time to come, would not have been possible. Thank you. Blake D’Souza (11.2)

In addition the Young Writers Days at Fremantle Literature Centre continued with great success. A small group of boys from Years 8 and 9 enjoyed the opportunity to engage and interact with a range of reputable authors and likeminded students from other schools. I take this opportunity to sincerely thank my colleagues for their dedication and commitment to quality teaching. All of our English teachers work diligently to create meaningful learning experiences for their students and deserve a restful Christmas break, at which time we also farewell our Middle School Coordinator Ms Rhiannon Lodge as she embarks on maternity leave. We are all excited about welcoming a new baby to the office and wish Rhiannon and her husband all the best for 2013.

This has been another eventful and busy year for the English department. We were pleased to offer our Year 12 English students the opportunity to enjoy a live performance of Arthur Miller’s drama The Crucible and many of the boys commented on how invaluable it was to experience a representation of the text they were studying in class. Our Year 12 Literature students were able to spend a day at Curtin University experiencing the life of a tertiary student. They appreciated the independence of familiarising themselves with the campus auditoriums and taking lecture notes that were relevant to their final year of studying English Literature. We look forward to offering opportunities like this for our senior students again in 2013. Middle School English has experienced a vibrant and dynamic year as the department started implementing the National Curriculum, particularly in Year 7. The focus has remained on engaging and fulfilling units of work that capture the boys’ imagination and give them exposure to a range of texts including novels, short stories, picture books, non-fiction texts and feature film. Students have also enjoyed further improving their functional and analytical skills consistently throughout each unit of work.

Particular highlights have included a visit from renowned author Morris Gleitzman in Term 2 to coincide with the Year 7 novel study. Students had the opportunity to ask questions and have books signed. Students received instrumental insight into the writing process as Gleitzman revealed some of his inspiration for the plot, conflict and characters within his novels, while also relating some amusing anecdotes.

English Small Expectations The train was early. Anne half-heartedly picked up her bag and dragged her lifeless feet across the irksome station floor. Her arms outweighed her shoulders which crumbled under the prosaic ceiling of the carriage. She sat tritely, and pushed her damp hair behind her ears. An instinctual drive buzzed through her body, and she felt a sudden shudder. Placed beside the window inside a conspicuously vacant carriage, at five o’clock in the afternoon, she settled. Reaching into her briefcase she pulled out the puzzle section of the day’s newspaper. Towers of ink were already displaced across the page from where she formerly (during her lunchbreak) worked. The train began to move and Anne pursued her acrostic. Indeed, after eight hours of consolidated cognitive thought ‘there was still time in the world for a quick crossword’ she thought. The ride always took nineteen minutes and twenty seconds. Give or take a minute, which she calculated from routine. Her pen created the final black road in the paper’s white desert, and a feeling of accomplishment overcame her. Following the feeling of utmost fulfilment in effectuating the penultimate word, to Anne’s surprise the carriage door opened. At that same moment, an abrupt sensation sped up and down her spine like a powerful surge of electricity running through a wire. To her utmost angst, at the base of the door joining her carriage to the next appeared a group of stubbled, shadowed, unkempt (what appeared to be) homeless men. Dressed in rippled garments with no evidence of primary colours, they all slumbered their way into the cart and sat with the grace of a feather on the seated row opposite Anne. Threatened by their initial appearance, she immediately prepared to embrace the worst possible outcome, by reaching for her phone below the visible lines of her briefcase. Silence, no one moved except for the scraping wheels revolving around their axles, and the consequential sound waves prickling the nerves within the ears of the train’s passengers. A drop of sweat infused its way out of Anne’s brow and perched itself on her temple. For sixty enduring concentrated seconds it hung there whilst below her torso she prepared to ring the police. Everything from

212

the shrill howling of the iron wheels on the train turning, to the peripheral landscape appearing from the corner of her focus like flashcards of colours was sensually enhanced. It was the animal within that prepared to fight or flee from the enclosed metallic room. One of the men reached into his coat pocket. Anne tightened her grip, but to her surprise a book emerged from the Cimmerian shade of the man’s coat. Perplexed, Anne tried to maintain her established grasp on the situation as she was stumped. The book was shared between the four men, each of them delighting in its content being revealed through the introspective gaze maturing over their unblemished faces. The men then began to engage in conversation. Their husky, yet plump voices penetrated all corners of the carriage like light universally multiplying in a darkened room. One of the men said aloud “to burgeon is to bloom, you know, like a flower blossom”. To her paramount surprise, Anne came to a realisation that these good men were in fact reading a collection of poems by Charles Dickens. Their spontaneous conjuring of definitions and interpretations were vast, capturing Anne’s attention and manipulating her conjectures regarding the four men. Loosening her grip she contemplatively returned her gaze to the crossword. ‘How can they read?’ The train slowed as Anne desperately attempted to obtain the last word ’21 across, 6 letters’, to which the clue was ‘A conjecture. Solely a human defined apprehension. To […]’. Blankness again like the carriage ceiling or the station floor. She stumbled in interpreting the final clue. As she prepared to leave the train one of the men approached her. That anxious verve returned and Anne pressured the side of her bag with her hand. Heart racing, she closed her eyes. Nothing. Squeezing her left eye open, insisting that something happened, she spied the empty carriage. On the table in front of her lay the book of poems with the first line of the introduction open. The first word written on the page: ‘Expect’. By Matthew Dixon Year 12, Stage 3 Literature


Society & Environment Mr Chris Allanson (‘91) Head of Society & Environment

The 2012 academic year has been a successful and productive one. The year began with the usual analysis of the Year 12 WACE results from 2011. It was most pleasing that the results across the Society & Environment Learning Area were the best they have been in my time at Trinity College. Trinity was named by the Curriculum Council as one of the top schools in the State in Accounting & Finance 3AB, Modern History 3AB, Economics 3AB and Politics & Law 3AB. Trinity’s average mark in Economics, Modern History and Politics & Law were all between 8% and 10% above the state average. Congratulations must go to the students for their great performance, but I must also recognise the Society & Environment teachers for their hard work and dedication in providing meaningful and enjoyable learning experiences that encourage the best from their students. Analysis of the results has also demonstrated the high degree of validity of both school based assessment and marking standards, making Trinity College one of the best performed schools in the State. The outstanding results at Year 12 level are the culmination of a long journey that staff and students walk together throughout their secondary education. The strength of our Middle School programs coordinated by Mr Anthony Lunt provides students with rigorous learning experiences and enables them to develop the skills and processes that ensure that each student is given the opportunity to realise his potential.

Society & Environment As well as quality classroom teaching, the students of Trinity College have been presented with many wonderful learning opportunities beyond the four walls of the traditional classroom environment. Senior students attended a three-day fieldwork camp studying the effects of climate change on our southwest coastlines as well as issues of town planning with the development of Ellenbrook complete with a tour by Mr Frank Arangio who did considerable work in the planning of this development. Geography students also visited the Forest Discovery centre in Mundaring. The boys have also attended talks presented by the Chamber of Commerce & Industry and former Prime Minister John Howard. Visitors to Trinity have included Mr Ben Wyatt Member for Victoria Park, Senator Michaelia Cash and criminal defence barrister Mr Seamus Rafferty (’91). Trinity was also represented at a Schools Constitutional Convention where 10 boys debated aspects of constitutional change in Australia. Middle School boys conducted field work in East Perth as well as sketching the natural and cultural features that exist on our doorstep. Boys have also conducted activities at Herdsman Lake and visited Fremantle Prison as part of their study of colonial society. They have also participated in a criminal trial role play at the Francis Burt Law Centre and have viewed the Supreme Court in session. Trinity College also had two teams qualify for the State final of the Evatt Trophy competition as well as having one Year 10 student Brayden Keizer (10.2) selected to attend the Sir Charles Court Leadership program in the July school holidays. Below is an excerpt from a speech given by Brayden to the Trinity College community detailing his experience in this program.

“Only a few weeks ago I was lucky enough to take part in the 2012 program along with 29 other inspirational and motivated West Australians, from as far north as Broome and Christmas Island, down to Bunbury and Margaret River. The friends I made will last forever, the experiences I shared will guide my future, and the things I learnt about myself on the program will allow me to embrace life and its many challenges.”

With the benefit of hindsight I can now remark that the intellectual and physical challenges of that week, which would have seemed too difficult and too confronting only one month ago, now rank among the best experiences of my life. Three weeks on and three reunions later, I now feel I am part of a group of young adults striving to make a difference in the world. With large fundraising events already planned and successful careers on the horizon, this program demonstrates the power of leadership and intellect in taking action against injustices in our world. I can only urge you to make the most of your opportunities – be it here at Trinity College, in the workplace, or in life in general – be the best you can be, and do not be afraid to lead. He who leads by example; with passion, patience and humility is impossible to ignore.” (Brayden Keizer, College Assembly, Tuesday 31 July 2012) The Society & Environment Learning Area said farewell to a staff legend at the end of Semester 1. Mr Lal Bisnath retired from teaching after a 40-year career that included 16½ years at Trinity. He will be greatly missed by his colleagues and friends in the Society & Environment office. I thank the staff for their efforts throughout the year. As well as the day to day teaching routines, members of staff also balance coaching commitments with family life and professional learning. As we prepare to fully implement the Australian Curriculum in the near future, I would like to recognise the high levels of commitment and professionalism of my staff in providing the best opportunities for Trinity students.

Career Development Mr Peter Jones (‘03) Careers Adviser

In 2011, long-standing Career Development Coordinator Kevin Johns retired. I would like to thank Kevin for his service to the students and parents at Trinity College and for his detailed handover of the position for 2012.

Mr Banks with presenters at the Careers Carousel

Personal Development and Wellbeing Year 10 students have gone through the anxious and exciting process of selecting subjects and pathways for the next few years at Trinity. Part of the program involved Careers Education as part of their Personal Development and Wellbeing classes. Students used Career Voyager to help them think about their interests and possible post-school pathways. A number of guest speakers have also come in to help students make decisions about their future. The Department of Commerce has visited every Pastoral Care Group to discuss their rights and responsibilities when getting their first job. Dan Ryan the Australian United Nations Youth Representative canvassed Year 10 students about their concerns for the local community and encouraged active citizenship.

Sean Tighe (11.3) and Jayden Torre (11.7)

Career Carousel Twelve guest speakers came in for the annual Career Carousel where Year 10 students were exposed to a range of industries and professions. A number of Old Boys made it back to Trinity College to talk about their experiences after Trinity; Hunter Murphy (’03) on Small Business, Cameron Jansen (’03) on Banking and Finance, and Nicholas Monisse (’09) on Landscape Architecture. Students learn about the Alternative Entry Pathway for university

215


Career Development University University remains the most popular post-school pathway for Trinity College students. The strong number of 2011 graduates receiving scholarships is indicative of their potential and I trust that our graduates meet with success. Students need to consider whether university is the right path for where they want to go in life and that they choose an institution that suits their needs not just because it is where most of their friends are heading. Anecdotal evidence of a number of transfers and deferrals suggests that students have not done the legwork to visit the different university open days or research the different options available. Throughout the year, Central Institute of Technology, TISC, Notre Dame, ECU, UWA and Curtin university representatives came to Trinity College to present the different course opportunities and Bridgette Savy-Walsh took a group of Year 11 and 12 students to Notre Dame University Fremantle for a Health Sciences day. Their competitive spirit was evident from the outset when boys tried to get the best scores on the Exercise and Sports Science testing equipment. Brandon Willington (12.4), Henry Prior (12.1) and Nathan Demarte (’12.2) have already had a taste of university life through their successful completion of the Curtin Business School Excelerate Program. I encourage other students to become involved in these types of programs as they help with the transition to university studies.

Outdoor Education Mr Brett Silver Outdoor Education Coordinator

Outdoor Education at Trinity College again provided students with fantastic opportunities to develop lifelong skills through a very practical approach. Students were encouraged to be independent, self-reliant and to take responsibility for their own learning. Outdoor Education Years 7 to 10 All Year 7 students had their first experience of Outdoor Education through the eight-week elective rotation process. Students were involved in practical sessions aimed to develop friendships, organisation, self-esteem and an interest in learning outdoors. Activities included mountain biking, fishing, canoeing and camp cooking. As this unit is very practically based the students were involved in plenty of hands-on activity, which they thoroughly enjoyed. Our Years 7 and 8 students are not exposed to Outdoor Education unless they elect to study it, but with four classes in 2012 it is still a very popular choice with Trinity students. Boys who elected Outdoor Education continued with similar activities as in Year 7, but were exposed to more theory. These boys were also given the opportunity to demonstrate their skills on a one-day mountain biking expedition through John Forrest National Park. Congratulations to all boys who completed the ride. In 2012 Explorus Adventure Learning was again involved in providing a four-day expedition in the southwest of WA. Based in Karridale, boys were able to experience a challenging high ropes course through the tree tops of the Karri Forrest, explore Giants Cave at night and abseil the 37m cliffs at Willyabrup.

217


Outdoor Education This expedition is the culmination of a number of theory units based on climbing, navigation, ropes, knots and minimal impact. All boys who attend the camp thoroughly enjoy the experience and I look forward to their involvement in Outdoor Education throughout 2013.

Senior School VET Courses in Outdoor Education Year 11 students studying Outdoor Education have been completing a Certificate 1 in Sport & Recreation while Year 12 students complete a Certificate 2 in Outdoor Recreation. Both of these certificates are nationally recognised and include external qualifications such as Senior First Aid and the Recreational Skippers Ticket. These programs are managed by National Corporate Training and together with experienced instructors from The State Sailing Centre, St John Ambulance and Department of Planning & Infrastructure, our students are exposed to a high level of training that culminates in a great expedition. The Year 11 students set out on a four-night expedition off the coast of Dampier. Boys were required to navigate a course through the islands of the Dampier Archipelago, as well as enjoy the natural wonders of this fantastic part of WA. While boating from island to island boys were given the chance to do some deep sea fishing and snorkeling with a drift dive through a creek at the change of tide being one of the highlights. Our Year 12 cohort tackled the Mudda Biddi Trail for three nights on a mountain bike camp. This challenge required boys to be self-sufficient in terms of navigation, food and equipment. The camp successfully achieved its goal of developing cooperation, confidence and independence for these students. Congratulations to all students involved in Outdoor Education throughout 2012 for such a successful and enjoyable year. A special thank you must be given to all staff involved in these expeditions and their dedication to Trinity’s comprehensive off-campus commitments. Mr Brett Silver Outdoor Education Coordinator

Health and Physical Education Fitness and Health Education Mr Rod Rainer Head of Health and Physical Education

The Fitness and Health Education units are an extension of the normal physical education program. Boys taking part in these units gain a greater understanding of fitness training principles and methods. They are exposed to a greater range of training methods designed to assist the aspiring athlete or those who just want to develop a healthier approach to life. They also complement material covered in Year 9 Health in relation to fitness profiling. These units provide working knowledge and practical experiences for the various Physical Education courses offered in Years 11 and 12.

Aquatics

One of the most important health issues facing modern society is the obesity epidemic and related lifestyle diseases like diabetes. The best way to combat this epidemic is through education of the importance of physical activity and a good diet and nutrition plan as part of a healthy lifestyle. At Trinity College the physical education staff endeavours to ensure that our students are receiving all the necessary information to make healthy choices through the delivery of our Health & Physical education program. Physical Education in Years 7 to 10 The Physical Education program at Trinity College is designed to complement the sports program. By effectively providing extra training sessions within physical education by teachers who have expertise in particular sports, we assist boys to achieve excellence in their chosen sports. Studies have shown that this develops self-esteem and translates to more effective learning within the classroom. Boys especially benefit from having a very physical learning environment. The Sport Education unit, conducted during Terms 2 and 3 in Years 7, 8 and 9, encourages collaborative learning and the development of interpersonal skills. In this unit the students conduct their own season and as well as participating, they take on roles such as administration, officiating and coaching. These life skills of assertive behaviour, leadership and cooperation translate into other aspects of their life.

Middle School Aquatics is an elective designed to introduce the students to life around the water. The Year 8 unit is broken into four areas; Stroke Technique, Water Polo, Life Saving and Coaching. Stroke Technique provides a firm grounding in swimming skills that is fundamental to Aquatics. The unit introduces butterfly and refines the skills of the other competitive strokes. Water Polo gives the boys an understanding of water polo tactical skills as an extension of physical education. Life Saving provides a strong foundation in life saving skills and the area of Coaching and management gives students the opportunity to analyse and correct each other’s stroke technique as a basis for the teaching of others in Year 9 Aquatics. Year 9 Aquatics extends the knowledge of the boys in Stroke Technique and Life Saving, culminating in a Bronze Medallion standard exam. The boys are given an introduction into the teaching and management of others through a ‘big buddy’ program that allows them to instruct swimming to Year 4 boys. Finally, the boys undertake an Aquatic Recreation component, integrating the running and supervision of various aquatic sports.

Health Education With an overarching theme of developing community and self-esteem, Year 7 students explore a variety of topics such as relationship development, resilience, communication and physical change. Through this program students learn to foster the Trinity mantra of ‘Men for Others’ whilst integrating into secondary school life. Our Year 9 health curriculum deliberately engages our students in tackling our growing obesity epidemic. Students investigate various lifestyle diseases and are educated in modern dietary and exercise practices that should arm them to confront the all too common complications associated with a sedentary adult life.

219


Health and Physical Education An important component of the Personal Development & Wellbeing program in Year 10 is the Keys for Life predriver education program. Keys for Life explores different aspects of road safety for all road users and is aimed at deterring young drivers from being involved in risk-taking behaviours. Issues such as speeding, not wearing seat belts and the use of mobile phones whilst driving are discussed in this program. Young people, especially males aged 17 to 24 years, are over-represented in motor vehicle accidents. It is important that we all work together in an effort to reduce road deaths and serious injuries on our roads.

Physical Education in Years 11 and 12 The performance of Trinity College students in the 2011 WACE Physical Education Studies examination was again of the highest order, featuring in the top 10 schools across the State for the fourth consecutive year. Their average mean scaled score of 74.98% placed the cohort approximately 16% above the State average and proved a fair reward for their outstanding effort throughout the year. Seventeen students from the group of 35 achieved an excellent rating (scores above 75%) whilst Mitchell Boros (‘11) achieved a Certificate of Distinction that placed him in the top 0.5% of students statewide in this subject. Statistically these results are of the highest order and continue to prove that Trinity College is a leader in this subject. Special thanks must go to Mr Brendan Chapman, Mr David Hankin, Mr Stephen Leahy (‘78) and Mr John Taylor for their ongoing efforts in preparing the students for their final WACE examinations. Physical Education Studies is becoming an increasingly popular choice for our Years 11 and 12 students with over 70 students studying the course in Year 11 alone. Highlights of the course continue to be the practical volleyball sessions in Year 11 whilst the ability of Year 12 students to practically apply biomechanical, physiological and psychological concepts to their own PSA sporting endeavours ensures a greater level of understanding of key content areas. With the huge success of the course over the past five years, we are delighted as a department to see a growing number of students exploring the health and fitness sector at a tertiary level. Sound knowledge and understanding in key areas such as nutrition, anatomy, physiology and biomechanics have laid excellent foundations for many of our students to continue their studies in the areas of physiotherapy, sport science, medicine and sports management. Further to this, it has also provided many other students with the necessary skills to make healthy lifestyle choices.

220

Pre Service Teacher Program Trinity College, especially the Health & Physical Education department, is very proactive in the training of our future teachers. Pre-service intake is from Notre Dame University, Edith Cowan University and the University of Western Australia. These young teachers provide valuable assistance not only in the teaching program but by assisting with the coaching of our sporting teams. Trinity is fortunate in that we have attracted some excellent young teachers who have made a significant contribution to the education of our boys. Our students demonstrate a high level of interpersonal skills as well as displaying a high level of skill development. I would like to publicly acknowledge the efforts of the Health & Physical Education staff in making a significant contribution to the education of our students.

PSA Sport Mr Stephen Leahy (’78) Director of Sport

With two trophies to show for our efforts, 2012 has been another challenging year on the sporting field that in some ways could be viewed as a disappointing return for the time and effort expended, but there is much more to school sport than winning titles. Of course we would all prefer to win than lose, but one of the great life lessons that sport provides is that through defeats and disappointments we develop resilience that allows us to return to the fray. This is a trait that will serve our boys well in the years to come. After being runners up in the previous two years, in 2012 the 1st X1 soccer boys were undefeated and won the Lawe-Davies Trophy, and the Rowing Club retained the Hamer Cup for the third consecutive year, reflecting the depth of excellence we have had for many years in this demanding sport. The 1st V basketball, 1st V1 volleyball and the senior cross-country team were all very competitive and finished second in their respective competitions. Our other senior teams experienced varying degrees of success and disappointment but, importantly, represented Trinity with pride and endeavour each week, regardless of the state of play in the game. Their efforts are described in more detail in other sections of this publication. For us to improve, we need to look back on our performances in each sport in 2012, determine what did and didn’t work, plan how we are going to improve, and then implement the plan. An area of considerable concern is the decline in the number of boys playing rugby and hockey across most age groups at Trinity. This year we were not able to field full teams in Years 9 and 10 rugby, and in hockey we were without a Year 10 team, a Senior School 3rd X1, and a Middle School B team. We have tried over the last two years to lift the level of interest among the boys by increasing the amount of exposure they have to these two sports during their PE classes but there has been little improvement in the number of boys selecting these sports as their PSA sport of choice.

Cricket is also facing a drop in the number of participants as boys seem to be shying away from the game, possibly due to the significant time component involved – this decline in numbers is also being experienced at other schools as well as in community cricket. There has been a significant increase in the number of boys playing volleyball and basketball in summer, and soccer and football remain the sport of choice for most boys in winter. As indicated in the 2011 Annual, the demands of external sporting bodies continue to impact on many of our high achieving athletes, some of whom are involved with school, community and State teams. Talent ID squads and club squads train for increasingly longer periods of the year, which impacts on the boys’ ability to perform at their peak as they are under massive training/playing loads. While some external bodies try and work with Trinity to balance the demands placed on the boys, others do not and the boys are inevitably the ‘meat in the sandwich’. It is very disappointing when State trials and training are scheduled to clash with PSA fixtures, meaning boys have to choose between their playing with their mates for Trinity and possible State representation. Boys are often told that to be noticed by various State/AFL selectors they need to be involved in club sport as no one notices or cares what goes on in the PSA system. Suffice to say that there are currently 14 Trinity Old Boys in the AFL system and all of them played football for Trinity ahead of their WAFL Colts teams. The local traffic road built between the WACA and Mann Oval has reduced the amount of space available for training and playing interschool games and more of our training has moved off-campus, effectively reducing our training time. We are not able to mark a 400m athletics track, which had a significant impact on our athletics teams. Consideration is being given to extending Mann Oval towards the swimming pool, with the road separating the pool from the oval being removed to allow this to happen. This would be of great benefit to both the sport and PE programs as space is at a premium for both. The grounds at Waterford continue to improve each year and the quality playing surfaces are a real asset to Trinity. Top dressing and other work planned for Mann Oval over Term 4 and the Christmas break will help rejuvenate a very heavily used ground. My sincere thanks are extended to everyone involved in Trinity’s sporting program – the ground staff, administration, parents, teaching and coaching staff, and the boys of Trinity College – without your support we would not be able to maintain the high standards we strive for at all times. I thank in particular the graduating class of 2012 for their contribution to the PSA sporting program over the years and challenge the 2013 class to lead Trinity from the front on the sporting fields next year.

Mr Stephen Leahy (’78) Director of Sport

The 2012 athletics season was full of challenges for the Trinity athletics team, and the boys showed plenty of character to overcome the difficulties we encountered. The building of the local traffic road between Trinity and the WACA resulted in a large section of the oval being unavailable for our use, and the loss of the long and triple jump pits. We were unable to mark out a 400m track, which impacted particularly on the middle distance and relay teams.

A change to the schedule of events for the PSA Inters forced a rethink on the selection of the Inters team as the carnival was shortened by about 40 minutes resulting in multi-event athletes having less time to recover between events. The 1500m events were moved from the last individual events of the program to the start of the meet and ran concurrently with the hurdles events, which added to the spectacle. On Inters day, our athletes were competitive for much of the carnival but we were not able to sustain the effort for long enough and our lack of depth in some areas was exposed as the multi-event boys tired. Despite our best efforts, we could not match it with Aquinas and eventual winners Scotch who fought out a great finish. Congratulations to Isaac Curtis (9.5) who was our top points scorer at the Inters and to James Marthins (7.4) and Ethan Taylor (7.4) who both broke the under 13 discus record. My thanks are extended to everyone who contributed in any way to the 2012 athletics season. At the end of the day we improved by one position on the ladder but there is plenty of work to be done if we are to be a serious contender for the Alcock Shield in 2013. Mr Stephen Leahy (’78) Director of Sport

Despite these problems, the boys approached the season with enthusiasm and a real sense of purpose after our disappointing result in 2011. The number of boys at training each afternoon was excellent with most of our sessions having in excess of 120 boys in attendance. The Year 12 athletes filled their roles as team leaders, setting the example for the younger boys to emulate. Strong competition for spots on the team was evident as the boys pushed themselves to better their performances. The College Age Championships this year were held in conjunction with the Triangular meet with Aquinas and Hale, necessitated by the lack of a suitable facility on Mann Oval. There were some encouraging performances by many of the boys and the winners of the various age groups, in order from under 13 to Open, were James Marthins (7.4), Mason Nicolaou (8.5), Isaac Curtis (9.5), Nixon Hamlet (10.4), Tim Throssell (11.5) and Chris Bryan (12.2).

This year was always going to be about building the team back up after the departure of so many of our 1st team from last year. However, a close match against Hale and a win against Guilford lifted the hopes of the 1st and 2nd teams and thoughts were on more than just team building.

A big thank you goes to Captain Nathan Butler (12.1) for his inspiring leadership, to Damon Hortle (12.6) for his role as Vice-Captain and great role model for the upcoming players in our 2nd team, and to Hugh Pilgrim (12.2) for giving his all in every game.

Mr Andrew Osnain 1st V Basketball Coach

For all teams associated with Trinity basketball, 2012 was a learning experience. A new emphasis was placed on getting the fundamentals right and working hard on the mental side of the game. With this in mind, the 2012 season proved to be a success. Term 4, 2011 was capped off with an unprecedented sixth consecutive Shortland Jones Victory for the 1st V – 3rd V players, for the most number of victories and points. The 1st V was among many Trinity undefeated teams heading into the Blackwood Cup season of 2012. The 1st V was unable to tie Aquinas for the most number of consecutive Blackwood Cup victories in PSA history (four championships), but the boys were in every game, having the lead in four of six games at half-time and learning valuable lessons from each encounter. With up to seven students eligible to try out for the 1st V squad next season, the squad will hopefully build on these results and push us back into contention. A real positive of the season was the emergence of the next generation of basketballers, who worked hard on the fundamentals and learnt the importance of a strong mental game to complement the physical aspects of the sport. We had a number of boys involved in the State U/16 selection process, with three in the NITP program. Congratulations to Bailey Cole (10.4), Mitchell Hampson (10.3) and Nicholas Moulton (9.5) on their achievements. We also wish Bailey and Mitchell all the best for the upcoming Nationals, representing WA.

Trinity basketball would also like to congratulate former 1st V Captain and U/20 State Captain Patrick Banks (‘10) and wish him all the best for his college basketball adventure that began in August 2012 at Ottawa University in Kansas where he will study and play basketball. Patrick becomes the third Trinity student and former USA basketball tourist to receive a scholarship to play basketball at the collegiate level. Congratulations to all teams on their performances throughout the season. A number of teams were able to maintain or establish winning ratios, and some drastically improved results from last year, but to simply acknowledge wins and losses would not do justice to the time and effort players, coaches and families invest in the program. From the perspective of the basketball program 2011/2012, it has been a successful season. I would like to thank all the coaches for their hard work and commitment to improving the program, particularly Mr Russell Hinks, Mr Brett Silver, Mr Peter Oliver, Mr Michael Roche and Ms Sarah Pontre, not only for raising the standards of the program but also in their time volunteered to attend and assist with the end of season Basketball Evening. I look forward to seeing the boys back on our new look court in Term 4.

USA Basketball Tour In January this year, 21 students from Trinity travelled to the USA to play in a number of games and experience the basketball culture both at high school and professional level. The boys performed admirably and both the junior and varsity teams were able to play at a high level and achieve fine results. The tour began in San Francisco, moving through San Louis Obispo, Los Angeles, Anaheim and San Diego. Throughout the tour the students were exposed to cultural attractions such as Alcatraz, Universal Studios and Disneyland. The students were also hosted by a number of schools for meals following the fixtures and we were blessed to have been given the opportunity to celebrate Mass with Marin Catholic Prep in their amazing Chapel overlooking the hills in Marin County. One school, Mission Prep, hosted Trinity for the day, allowing the students to see life as an American student and participate in academic classes across the curriculum.

229


Basketball The primary focus of the USA Basketball Tour is to participate in games of basketball. This tour provided the students with an opportunity to compete in a total of 10 games through five schools over a two-week period. Of the schools we played, all but one had a number of players already committed or seeking entrance to NCAA Division One Colleges across the country, which meant the standard was high. One of our students was scouted by three colleges including St Mary’s College. It was an experience to have the added pressure in the stands watching the team’s every move. In our experience the Trinity USA Basketball Tour provides a great opportunity for those students who wish to play and experience basketball at the highest level, and who have demonstrated a commitment to the program and all that Trinity College stands for. Travelling to another country involves added responsibility and we expect all tourists to be fine ambassadors, not only for Trinity but also for our country. It is for this reason that the program will never guarantee positions on the tour to students, regardless of what team or level they have previously represented leading up to the tour. All parents who would like to see basketball move from strength to strength are asked to take up the call and join the Friends of Trinity Basketball Committee. Information on how you can help can be obtained via email to Beverly Martinez martinez.beverly@trinity.wa.edu.au I look forward to seeing the boys back on our new look court in Term 4.

7B Cricket

Mr Rod Rainer 1st XI Cricket Coach

Year 7 Cricket I would like to say a big thank you to Bronson Chabros and Tim Shanassy for all their help this season with training and helping to run the Year 7 teams. The A team had a mixed bag season with some outstanding performances not rewarded with a win, and others when we got over the line knowing that we could have done better.

All the boys showed a willingness to work hard and listen. Their attitude was great all season and they worked hard for each other. I’m sure if this continues they will be successful in future seasons. The best performance with the bat this season was James Torre (7.7) who fired a rapid 31 against Wesley to blast us to a big total of 128. The highlight performance with the ball was actually our first game with Max Fry (7.6) going for only 4 runs from 4 overs and he also managed to snag a couple wickets along the way. The most consistent performers through the season would have to be Sam D’Souza (7.6) with the bat and Max Fry (7.6) with the ball. Each week your performances were excellent. Thanks for a great season gentlemen and good luck in the coming years with all your cricket endeavours. Mr Luke Thompson 7A Coach

The 7B team has come along in leaps and bounds this season, putting together some very good performances. This team has been a delightful group of players to coach and all have pushed for higher selection honours, which has been pleasing to see. With so many leaders amongst the group, I was able to rotate the captaincy each week and all the boys excelled in this role. Our most memorable performance was our fixture against the undefeated Hale School, which came down to the very last ball of the day, when we posted a competitive score of 83 from our 20 overs and held them to 83. While it could be seen as the one that got away, it was a fitting result given the evenness of the two teams.

All players contributed throughout the season, which makes it very difficult to present awards. However, there were a few outstanding individual performances that need noting. In our biggest win for the season against Wesley College, Mathew Taylor (7.6) was retired on 32 and Simon Lee (7.5) retired on 27. In our tie with Hale School, Finn Sangalli (7.5) was retired on 36. Our service and contribution award could have gone to any of the 12 boys in the 7B team, but the player chosen worked especially hard at his game all the time, did everything I ever asked of him, and was the ultimate team player. This award goes to Taj Evans (7.1). Mr Bronson Chabros 7B Coach

Year 8 Cricket 8A Cricket The 2012 season has been a bit of a roller coaster for the 8A team this year. It started poorly before Tom Leishman (8.5) led from the front with some outstanding performances as captain. He inspired the team to a couple of fantastic wins. Our player of the season to date is Jordan Alvaro (8.1) with the best strike rate with the bat and taking a team high of 8 wickets. Mr Phil Purvis 8A Coach

235


Cricket 8B Cricket The 8B Cricket team of 2012 was a joy to coach. We had a keen and talented group of young cricketers who had four wins and two narrow losses to Wesley College and Aquinas College. The Wesley side deserved their undefeated season and played better than us on the day. The Aquinas game went down to the last ball but really the coach must take the blame for that loss because I virtually reversed the batting order in an attempt to give everyone a bat. The 20-over a side format was challenging and I would like to thank Ben Davies (8.3) and Carl Fasolo (8.5) who were the main captains throughout the season. Ben and Carl led by example and they displayed a willingness to give everyone a bowl and a bat as often as possible. Trinity’s cricketing future is looking sound if these lads stay with the game, as they have a great deal of potential. Mr John Montagu 8B Coach

Year 9 Cricket 9A & 9B Cricket This year’s 9A cricketers began the season with the unenviable record of four consecutive defeats in the final over of the game. Only one wicket or hit away from victory, these games produced some outstanding individual performances. Master batsman David Cox (9.2) hit 50s against both Scotch and Wesley, and Darius D’Silva (9.1) scored 51 against Hale. Matthew Green (9.3) and Jacob Carr (9.2) were the pick of the bowlers, and James Whitechurch (9.4) and Sheldon Dias (9.4) both showed poise behind the stumps. The drought was broken when the team came up against the previously unbeaten Aquinas. Good batting from D’Silva, Green and Daniel Mustica (9.4), backed up by wickets from Green and Sam Bowers (9.7), set up the win which was secured by a last wicket to Lachlan Broun (9.5). Unfortunately, the good form did not last and a defeat to Guildford ended the term. However, the game did allow certain fringe players an opportunity to demonstrate their ability with bat and ball, and captain Jackson Flematti (9.1) once again proved astute in juggling his attack. These fringe players included a number of 9B players who had forced their way into the side on the back of strong performances. The 9Bs won half their games during the term and saw excellent

236

performances from Patrick Fry (9.7) who hit two halfcenturies, and Carlos Soares (9.4) who managed a 40 and a bag of wickets. Others to impress included Keiran Evans (9.3) for his bowling and Reece Drudi (9.2) for his batting, especially in the last game against Guildford. Both sides have plenty of potential, and Term 4 should see more wins recorded in each grade so long as players persevere with their cricket. Mr Anthony Lunt 9A & 9B Coach

Senior Cricket 10A Cricket The 10A cricket team had a very successful season this year, despite winning only half of the games in which they played. As has been the case in recent seasons, the loss of several key players, notably Frank James (10.3), Liam Purdy (10.3) and Corey Evans (10.5) to the 1st X1 weakened the side in the second half of the season. This loss of players created opportunities for others to step up and spinners Morgan Hindle (10.4) who returned season figures of 18/140 including best of 5/6 from 9.4 overs, and Conor Wall (10.3), did just this. Strong individual batting efforts from Nicholas Marciano (10.2), Michael Bell (10.1) and Daniel Maher (10.3), outstanding glove work from Cooper Isailovic (10.3) and Andrew Bottega (10.2), and some impressive swing bowling from Lochlan White (10.3), Guiliano Martino (10.2) and Richard Giorgi (10.4) ensured that this group is very well placed to challenge for the Darlot Cup in the coming years. Mr David Hankin 10A Coach

10B/4th XI The 2012 summer season was a moderately successful one for the 10B/4th XI team, winning half of their games. Each week generally saw a progression in scores and a commitment to skill development. A notable achievement was Thomas Pellizari’s (10.5) five catches taken against Scotch, although many boys achieved personal bests. Sam Harris (’09) is to be thanked for his assistance throughout the season. Mr Adam Kealley 10B/4th XI Coach


3rd XI It was an eventful season for 3rd cricket at Trinity College, with the coaching done by a number of different members, including Mr Barry McKenna, Mr Michael Murphy and Mr Lal Bisnath. There were very notable performances; Ross Cooper’s first-ever 5 wicket haul, Curtis Lee’s (12.3) 72 against Scotch, Tom Flematti’s (12.1) 50 against Aquinas and 3 scores over 50 for Jerome Randle-Rai (11.1) helped make the season an enjoyable experience for all. Thanks should go to the coaches for making the training sessions and game days, and also the players for their dedication and perseverance to Trinity 3rd cricket. Mr Barry McKenna 3rd XI Coach

2nd XI The 2nd XI season highlight was a memorable victory from behind over Hale at Hale School. Trinity managed to post a rather moderate total of 125 runs and in reply, just prior to the tea break, Hale were cruising at 4/80 with 25 overs remaining. Subsequently, an inspired team bowling and fielding performance, led by strike bowler Jake Bergman (12.5), caused Hale to collapse, bowled out for 119. Classic Victory! Special mentions go to the bowling performances of Josh Chivell (11.2) and Jake Bergman (12.5). Two players, Max Benson (11.7) and Cameron Glass (12.7) scored half centuries with the bat during the season.

Darlot Cup Although the endeavour of the team was never in question we failed to put enough pressure on the opposition when batting. Cameron Yukich (12.6), Liam Purdy (10.3), Jon Stapleton (11.6) and Fraser Hay (11.5) all scored half-centuries but we never established a match winning partnership. Bowling and fielding was continually of a high standard and everyone can take great satisfaction from these aspects of our game. Our team totals with the bat were too modest and this put a lot of pressure on our bowlers not only to take wickets, but also to keep scoring to a minimum. All bowlers are to be congratulated for their efforts but special mention goes to both Frank James (10.3) and Thomas Hunt (11.6) for taking four wickets in an innings. Twelve of the 16 players who played 1st XI cricket will continue next season and this experience will be a great strength in our endeavours to be successful in 2013. Finally, my thanks to all coaches and parents who assisted with scoring or catering for our cricket teams this season. Mr Rod Rainer 1st XI Cricket Coach

Mr Jake Foley 2nd XI Coach

1st XI Christian Brother’s Cricket Week – January 2012

The trip to Nudgee College every second year is a highlight of the cricket calendar. The boys learn so much from this cricket experience that cannot be measured in a win/loss scenario. Cameron Yukich (12.6) is to be congratulated on scoring 111 against St Patrick’s Strathfield, the only century by a Trinity batsman for the season. Special thanks to Mr Jake Foley (’05), Mr Graeme Porter and Mr Alastair Hay who accompanied the boys on the tour. Mr Rod Rainer 1st XI Coach

Mr John Taylor Senior CrossCountry Coach

Thank you to the coaches, Peter Jones (Senior Squad) and Geoffrey Jamison and Sam O’Connell (both Middle School Squad) for your time, wisdom and motivation. The culture you have set is a pillar to the success of this running club. To our managers Kathryn Down (Senior Squad) and Lisa Laurino (Middle School Squad) thank you for your time, organisation and management. The Trinity CrossCountry Club is the biggest and often most envied in the PSA and we wouldn’t be able to run our programs and camps without you.

A person who is afraid of taking risks may never be disappointed or disillusioned; perhaps they won’t suffer the way people do when they have a dream to follow. But when that person looks back – and at some point everyone looks back – they will hear their heart saying “What have you done with the miracles that God planted in your days? What have you done with the talents God bestowed on you? Will you take a risk? How will you look back….”

To the parents, your time and support with marshalling, morning teas and camps has again been amazing. The club cannot operate without this support, which is always given with a smile and enthusiasm. Finally to the athletes, there is no hiding in cross-country. You have either done the kilometres or you haven’t. Only you can establish a limit to your own dreams, so where will they lead you to in 2013...? John Taylor Senior Cross-Country Coach

Paulo Coelho, By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept The 2012 cross-country season was defined by a willingness to take risks and chase our dreams. The boys didn’t know whether this would be enough to see our squad ranked as the number one team in the PSA and they didn’t know what would happen if they dared to dream but failed to achieve their dream. Well, in 2012 we did not achieve the number one senior ranking in the PSA, and we congratulate Aquinas on a dominant season. However, each of the 77 students who stepped up across the Trinity Senior and Middle School teams can say that their will to dream saw them achieve personal bests, steel in their legs and a mindset to say “keep going” when others say “that’s enough”. Trinity cross-country runners won the Western Australian State Schools Champions for 2012 and the Middle School Squad can say they claimed their eighth consecutive PSA Championship. Members of the senior squad can say that in coming second in PSA, there was no effort spared in our attempt to beat Aquinas. To me that’s not a bad achievement.

Cross Country Cross-Country Camp On a fine Friday afternoon the Trinity College crosscountry team gathered by the gymnasium in anticipation of the annual camp, which was kicked off this year with an epic adventure race. The race consisted of four legs – kayak, swim, ride and run – that tested the boys’ fitness, determination and teamwork as they worked in pairs and in trios to finish the task. The team that finished first overall consisted of Alex Drewett (11.2), Jamie Lynch (10.4) and Captain Jack Cleary (12.5). The mateship and effort displayed by all the boys was outstanding and set the tone for the remainder of the camp. That evening the boys sat down as a club for a goal setting activity of evaluating their performance as individuals and as a collective unit. From here we devised a new standard of performance and professionalism for the club as well as individual performance goals. That night we were treated to an array of delectable dishes graciously provided by the parents. As we stuffed our faces, we took time to get to know each other and bond as a club, something that is imperative with runners across five Year levels. Following dinner we gathered in the computer IT classroom to watch an inspirational movie about the strength of being the underdog. After an early morning dip in the Swan River (at the risk of hypothermia!), it was onto the bus where the club made a new friend in an old PSA bus driver. On this eventful bus trip the boys partook in the annual cross-country crossword, which proved a hassle for several boys who just could not figure out what type of water dwelling animal had a second generation Pokémon named after it (obviously the answer was Axolotl). At last we arrived at the goat farm in Kalamunda, home to the State downhill MTB course on the professional circuit; being a club that takes pride in defying the status quo, we ran the course in a fast and furious fashion. With only a couple of rolled ankles, we celebrated with a visit to McDonalds where much to the dismay of the restaurant staff we simultaneously purchased 30 soft serves, shattering last year’s record by four. Special thanks must be extended to Mr De Silva for helping supervise, Old Boys Jack Dewsbury (’11) and Sam O’Connell (’09) for coming down and supporting the boys and Mr John Taylor who ran the camp and all of its proceedings.

Mr Chris Allanson (’91) 1st XVIII Football Manager

The 2012 football season will be remembered as one with much to be proud of for all players, parents and coaches involved. Whilst the Alcock Cup eluded the 1st XVIII, they enjoyed significantly more success than in 2011. The season began during the April holidays, with a practise fixture against Banksia Hill Detention Centre, giving players the opportunity to impress the match committee. However, what proved to be a wonderful opportunity to try boys in various positions turned sour when captain Harry McInnes (12.3) suffered the first of two serious injuries that limited the potential impact across the midfield. The final practise match before commencing the season proper saw the boys show eventual winners Hale, that the Trinity team was going to be a contender for this year’s competition. The season proper started with an outstanding win against Aquinas at Waterford that was followed up with a determined win over Scotch. The first quarter of the Scotch game saw Trinity kick seven goals in the first 15 minutes to take a generous advantage into quarter time, but credit must be given to a determined Scotch side that fought their way back into the contest before falling just short at the final siren. A win against Christ Church saw the team set up their season with a three win/0 loss start and confidence was high. The fourth round fixture against a much bigger Hale outfit was always going to be a big test for the much younger Trinity players. Whilst Hale came away victors on this occasion, it was clear that the Trinity 1st XVIII were not far off the competition benchmark. Unfortunately, late injuries to both Shayne Hille (11.1) and Harry McInnes (12.3) dented hopes of regaining the Alcock Cup, but this did give opportunities to younger players who will undoubtedly benefit from this extra valuable experience. The first Thursday fixture of the year saw Trinity play Guildford on one of the wettest days of the year. In a seesawing battle, Trinity managed to hit the lead just

before three-quarter time when there was a genuine chance that the fixture may have been called off due to excessive lightning. An outstanding game by Shayne Hille (11.1) helped Trinity hold on in the dying seconds for an inspiring victory. Mid-season saw the team down in confidence and consequently dropped games against Wesley, Scotch, Aquinas and Christ Church. However, a practise match win over Clontarf on a Monday afternoon was the catalyst for getting the boys to enjoy their football for the remainder of the season. To the credit of the boys in this group, they fought back well to end the season on a high with wins against Guildford and Wesley. With the large number of Years 10 and 11 boys playing 1st XVIII this year, along with some very strong Year 9 players coming through the ranks, it would seem that further success is on the horizon. Trinity continues to dominate football at the Middle School level with the Year 8/9 Schoolboys Cup team making the Grand Final for the sixth consecutive year. In an outstanding game of schoolboy football, Trinity was defeated by seven points. All players are to be congratulated on a fine effort. Congratulations must go to Shayne Hille (11.1) who was vice-captain for WA and was named MVP for the WA State 16s team, which won the national carnival in July. Well done also to Callum Radecki (10.1) and Harris Regan (9.2) on their performance in the WA State 15s carnival. Trinity College also recognises the success of Old Boys making AFL debuts this year with Jacob Brennan (’07) and Murray Newman (’10) playing at West Coast, and Fraser McInnes (’10) selected on their senior list at pick 28 in the national draft. Off the field, the year has been very successful with a number of events well supported. Boys have had the opportunity of training with members of the West Coast Eagles including Andrew Embley (’98), Jacob Brennan (’07) and Fraser McInnes (’10). The major fundraising event for the year was a Western Derby themed Quiz & Auction Night. Thanks must go to Network 10’s Lachie Reid for donating his time to be quizmaster, as well as all the parents and local businesses that supported this important fundraising event. On behalf of all the boys I would like to thank the hardworking members of the Trinity Friends of Football Committee who are the ‘engine room’ behind the football program. Special mention must go to Fleur Gilroy, Janet Flematti, John and Lidia Pesce, Paul and Srecka Rees, Paul Colreavy (’82), Patrick Murphy (’64) and Jean Kiezer who have been instrumental in the workings of the committee this year. A final thank you goes to all coaches and parents who do so much to keep the football program at Trinity running so effectively. Mr Chris Allanson (’91) 1st XVIII Football Manager 247

Ms Leanne Wilson Hockey Manager

At Trinity College, 2012 was a developmental year for hockey. Before the season began, Friends of Trinity Hockey was formed by parents of hockey players from Year 4 through to Year 12. We worked at trying to make the hockey community closer and began with a gala day, when players from all Years were invited. Different Year groups trained together, and many parents attended and helped by selling training shirts, cooking sausage sizzles and helping coaches. One of the absolute highlights of the 2012 season was the establishment of the newsletter. This gave Trinity hockey a chance to communicate with all hockey players, publish action shots of all teams at some stage throughout the season, keep the hockey community in touch with what was going on and gave many of the boys a chance to write about their game from a player’s perspective. My thanks must go to Liz Di Giovanni for her countless hours (with help from Rob) putting together this excellent publication.

During the second week of the April holidays many of the senior players competed in the State Championships at Curtin University. It is the first time we have participated in this competition for a number of years. Unfortunately, none of our senior goal-keepers were able to attend, which made defence somewhat difficult, but the three days of competition were an excellent form of pre-season training and exposed some of the younger players to a higher standard of hockey than they had previously played.

The 1st XI began with a pre-season game against Hale at Hale, where we won against a side with significantly more players who had been on a tour and were supremely confident. Most of our games were extremely close with only one goal difference at the end of the game. However, our final position on the ladder this year was not what we had hoped for. Hale was the winning team and we had played them three times during the year for a win, a draw and a loss. I think this just shows how close the hockey competition is. I would like to farewell the Year 12s who played in the 1st XI this year, Rob Di Giovanni (12.5) (c), Patrick Di Nardo (12.2), Matthew Hawgood (12.2) (vc), Christian Phang (12.7) (vc) and Ashish Salaskar (12.5). Their contribution to the team was outstanding throughout the year and they will be sorely missed. Due to the fact that Year 10 is a small Year group at Trinity, we were struggling to form a Year 10 team. We decided to combine the Year 10 group with the seniors and as such were able to play a 2nd XI and 3rd XI each week. This gave all the boys who wanted to play an opportunity to have a game each week. Tom Boyle (12.1) was captain of the 2nd XI and did a wonderful job of leading this team. Even though the final scores were not often in our favour, the 2nd and 3rd XI had an enjoyable season. They trained hard, learned many new skills and grew to become a very tightknit group. In the Middle School, Trinity fielded Year 7, Year 8A, Year 9A teams and a Year 8/9 combined B team, and a Junior School team. We lost a number of quite strong players to football, and rugby, which is a little disappointing, but this gave other players a chance to shine. Congratulations to Edward Urquhart (10.5), Mitchell Askey (9.4), Scott Reid (8.6), and Sam D’Souza (7.6) who all received Fairest and Best for their teams. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the coaches of hockey this season; James McPherson (’06), Alastair Hay, Adam Gage, Glenn Christensen, Michael Slack-Smith, Peter Norman, Sean Penney (’11), Margaret Trutwein and Joe Clear (’11). Your dedication to hockey at Trinity is greatly appreciated. To conclude I would like to thank all the helpers we had in hockey this season, in particular Patrick Phang, Liz Di Giovanni and the other members of the committee. I feel that your contribution this year will put us in good stead for the future and gives us a strong platform to work from. Ms Leanne Wilson Hockey Manager

Mr Philip Jurjevich (’85) Head of Rowing

The 2012 season kicked off early with the addition of a sports psychology camp at the school campsite at Dwellingup. The Pacific Institute, world leaders in business and sports psychology, did their goal setting and visualisation course at cost for the rowing club through the efforts of Brian Cooke and Max Cunningham who organised the course. All the boys got skills out of the course that were not only useful for achieving in sport, but also for setting up and achieving goals in their life. The first real race of the season was the 5km Guildford Regatta when Trinity crews performed well. It is exciting for the younger rowers to get out for their first race. The Year 9 crews had particular success with some beating Years 11 and 12 from other schools. Everybody loves the Walpole Camp and places for a bed at the camp are furiously fought over by the rowers and parents. The setting is magnificent, with the caravan park where we stay set up right on the Walpole Inlet. This year we were beset by torrential rain for the first three days of the camp, with everybody out of dry clothes by the second day. It takes a particular type of crazy to get up in the early morning, put on wet, cold training gear and go out into the rain and row with your coach yelling “Put in some effort!”, but that’s just the sort of crazy we like. Many thanks to the parents and friends of the committee who donated their time to help transport and cook for the boys while on camp In contrast to Walpole the annual January Camp was hot, real hot; the type of hot when you can fry eggs on the pavement. Days were spent rowing up to Garret Street Bridge and perfecting the ‘catch’ and the ‘finish’ and everything in between. We also had a superb dinner on the Wednesday of the camp when parents and rowers all joined together for a food extravaganza in the quad. It was an amazing turnout this year, a product of the incredible efforts of the Rowing Auxiliary.

If we thought that the January Camp was hot, that was nothing compared to the Australian Championships held in Perth at Champion Lakes in March. Some Eastern States crews literally melted in the harsh WA sun. Tasmanian crews suffered particularly badly with many wearing ice vests just to get through the day. Our sister school St Virgil’s from Hobart came without a coach, were adopted by Trinity, and left with a Bronze. For Trinity boys the heat was not an issue, we walked away with a Silver and a Bronze in the under 17 division, which was pleasing. One of our most successful Heads of the River was held in 2012, with seven out of a possible 13 wins retaining the Hamer Cup for the champion school. The second and third eight both set course record for their wins. The first eight fought valiantly and showed awesome character and club leadership in a hard fought race, after suffering tragedy two weeks earlier when they lost their stroke man to a broken arm; the stroke being the man who sets the timing for the crew. After the excitement of the Head of the River, some boys had to jump on a plane and head off to race in Europe. First stop was Amsterdam where we trained on the Amstel and took in some culture. Then we headed to Chamonix for skiing and high altitude training, running in the mountains. We raced in Italy against current and future Olympians. When we arrived we were told there was no other entry for the eights we entered, so we had to row in coxless fours against crews who had qualified for the London Olympics, including the eventual gold medal South African lightweight coxless four. The regatta took place in Piediluco, an idyllic, small Italian mountain village, complete with castle ruins at the top of a hill. The highlight for many on the tour was the run up to the castle; we couldn’t drag them away. Jack Cleary (12.5) also learnt a valuable life lesson while racing at the regatta; Tunisian rowers can be very fast, despite living in a desert.

Rowing At the beginning of the season we were blessed with two new quad fours donated through the fundraising efforts of the rowing auxiliary and the school, from events like the Movie Night held during the season to raise funds for two superfast boats from New Zealand. One was named after David Garrick, a long-time supporter of Trinity rowing and former president of the Rowing Auxiliary. The other boat was named after Doug Simpson, teacher at the school, former rowing master and long-time servant of the Trinity Rowing Club. Doug started coaching in the 1970s and has been a great asset to the club over a long period, continuing to develop young rowers today. In all honesty, Years 11 and 12 at times did not lead as they could have, but Tom Fairclough (12.1) was one of our best captains. Jack Cleary (12.5) achieved exceptional heights winning the JP Illich award and being one of the only athletes to be awarded full colours in two sports. Having said that, we have been immensely impressed with the work of the boys and their commitment to the plan, especially Jesse Ipsaro-Passione (12.4) and Alex Ridley (12.1) grabbing hold of the 1st VIII to move up two spots and seal the Hamer Cup. At times they have all shown their potential. On the horizon for them is a picture of what is possible. The achievements of our Old Boys this year, include Nick McKenna (‘10), Jamie Hewlett (’04), Rhys Grant (’04) and Thom Nelligan (’04) placing second at the Henley Royal Regatta in England. Josh Hicks (’08) won at Henley and won Silver at the World Rowing Championships in the under 23 Four, Brendan Murray (’07) and Dave Watts (’09) won Bronze in the Under 23 Eight and Ben Cureton (’98) won Gold last year in the World Championships and was fourth by a metre in the London Olympics final. A great big thank you to the auxiliary and all of the parents, particularly Paul and Deb Sanders, Lynn Fogg, Stacey Wellstead, Joe and Belinda Ipsaro-Passione, Lucille Ridley, Kathryn Taggart, and Doris Rocca – an amazing effort from all of the parents – thank you!

Thanks to all the wonderful friends, supporters, parents and coaches of the Trinity Rowing Club who through their astounding passion make the Trinity Rowing Club an amazing place to work and grow. All athletes and students who have continued to reflect and strive for improvement, the rewards are enormous. In 2011 I awarded the ergo champion to a fine performance, which was surpassed by the true Year 12 ergo champion William Fleming (’11). As a document of the history of the boys’ efforts, it is here that I must correct my mistake; sorry Will, and thanks for not even mentioning it! Mr Philip Jurjevich (’85) Head of Rowing

Mr Richard Trend (’69) Coach 1st XV

The 2012 rugby season will be remembered at Trinity as one blighted by injuries. Having five key players out of action before the season started was a major setback to the team’s expectations and in no game did we manage to have every senior Trinity player fit to play. Despite the disappointment of conceding so many defeats, the boys who trained shared the mutual satisfaction of having committed and worked together for a common goal. The stronger teams worked very hard for their results and the forwards were very competitive, outplaying State representatives in the opposition. The skill of tackling is alien to most of our boys and this is a major concern with the backs often struggling to contain the finesse of stronger, more experienced players. Once again we were able to achieve a good result against old adversaries Aquinas, and the way in which the Trinity boys maintained discipline and respect for the referee and laws of the game under extreme provocation is to be commended. Accolades for their behaviour, especially in this game, were many and varied. Conor Spence (12.1) was our best player, Team Captain Findlay Koenig-Luck (11.1) was best forward, Keenan Meade (11.6) best back, and the most improved player was Josh Collier (12.3) who quickly became a regular. Matt Dondas (12.2) saved the day on many occasions and was amply rewarded with the honour of the Shaka Zulu Award. David Ferrari (12.4) was without doubt the clubman of the year showing commitment and enduring enthusiasm for the school and team. Congratulations to Tomas Hovane (12.4) who once again was selected as a representative player in the National Indigenous Championship. Mr Richard Trend (’69) Coach 1st XV

Miss Amanda Marocchi 1st XI Soccer Manager

Tiana De Leo and all the parents who have assisted with breakfast, fundraising and promoting the Trinity Soccer Club community: Your efforts are truly appreciated. Finally a huge thank you goes to 1st XI Coach Shaun Murphy (‘87) and 10A Coach David Hankin for all their assistance over the year and whilst on tour. Their commitment to Trinity College and dedication to the sport is inspiring. Miss Amanda Marocchi 1st XI Soccer Manager

The 2012 soccer season at Trinity College was one of excitement and great success. Our 1st XI soccer team regained the Lawes Davies Cup by going undefeated and many of our Middle School teams topped their respective tables, proving that soccer at Trinity College has a bright future. To produce consistent on-field success requires dedicated players and coaches. I would like to take this opportunity to thank our committed players, their parents and all the coaches for their tireless efforts. It is their passion and commitment to the ‘world game’ that ensures Trinity soccer is a continued success. We started the 2012 soccer season by taking 29 fine ‘TC men’ on the 2012 Soccer Tour to Malaysia and Singapore in the April school holidays. As well as being given the opportunity to develop their skills in preparation for the PSA season, the boys aged 15-17 years were able to experience new cultures, see new places and embark on many adventures. The highlight was definitely being able to spend Easter Sunday at the Devine Mercy Boys Orphanage. The support and enthusiasm the boys displayed on the pitch was definitely matched off the pitch, as each was eager and ready to help the children in the orphanage. The boys spent their day sharing lunch, singing songs and playing soccer. It was an experience I am sure they will never forget. After several years of close defeat and heartbreak, the boys were eager to get stuck into the 2012 PSA season. Despite doubt in the minds of many, the boys were able to perform in the face of adversity and pull off an outstanding season, bringing home the Lawe Davies Cup. As confidence grew, their morale lifted and camaraderie ensued. The hard work at training paid off and through the guiding hand of Shaun Murphy (’87) and the never-give-up attitude of the boys, we were able to complete the season undefeated.

Surfing

Mr John Taylor Surfing Coach

With only three out of 13 competing surfers not returning next year, 2013 shapes as an exciting time for Trinity surfing and body-boarding. Thus the challenge is set; get your boarders, get in the water and see what can happen if you compete and believe. Mr John Taylor Surfing Coach

Held at Scarborough Beach on Friday 24 August, the 2012 PSA surfing competition was a huge success with great conditions and a new competition format. Despite the recent media coverage of our least favourite fish species, the competition commenced with ideal winds and a solid swell hitting the well-shaped banks along Scarborough Beach. These conditions quickly made everyone forget about the ‘what ifs’ and get excited about catching some of the best waves of the winter season. The introduction of a new ‘surf tag’ team format saw a real emphasis on team tactics and spirit. Each team consisted of three competitors, with each surfer allowed to enter the water only once and catch a maximum of six waves with only his top three counting. Teams had a maximum of one hour for all members to enter the water and catch their allotted waves. Trinity fully embraced this new format with students excitedly sitting down in their teams before heats talking strategies, tactics and bank selection. It was this team focus and camaraderie amongst team members of different ages that saw the Trinity team achieve fourth, our highest position in recent record. Although there were too numerous waves and wipeouts to mention each athlete individually, a special mention must go to the Year 12 body-boarders. Jack Townsend, Caleb Gilroy, Damon Hortle and Jack Dawes have competed every year and challenged themselves to improve. They have gone from a last placing when in the Middle School Division to placing fourth in their final year. Their keenness and surf fun attitudes will be missed.

Swimming

Mr Dion Mepham Swimming Coach

Jarrod Ng (9.3), Aidan Richards (9.6), James Valentine (9.7) and Carter Fabling (9.2) swam beautifully, each recording personal best times on the night, and I would love to see these boys pick up their work rate. The Year 9 relays were some of our strongest and many boys took the opportunity to swim up an age rather than miss a spot. Damon Marciano (8.5) came from nowhere to win the 50m Free Div 1 in the best race of the night. He was backed up strongly by Lucas Starkie (8.4) in a sterling example to the other Year 8s of what it means to be a Trinity student.

The 2012 Trinity team performed admirably at the PSA Swimming Inters, but an unfortunate collection of injuries, illnesses and absences dictated that their disappointing sixth place was not truly representative of the effort and commitment expended. On the night, the Trinity team stood tall and proud, swimming with the spirit we are accustomed to at Trinity, but Christ Church and Hale dominated. The team was led by Jayden Marciano (12.4) who has been a fantastic example to the boys as to what you achieve with hard work and persistence. He swam in his final year at Trinity with honest effort and pride. Trinity had many other great performers in the pool. Jayden Marciano (12.4) and Jamie Drewett (12.1) swam all events, with both boys excelling in the 100m breaststroke. Nathan Ruggiero’s (12.2) relay swim was also a highlight and Cameron Yukich’s (12.6) effort in leading the team chanting will go down in Trinity folklore.

It was great to welcome some quality new boys to swimming, with a good spread of swimmers getting into events. Carl Braut (7.1), Callum Lauriston (7.6), Denzel More (7.6) and Michael Nicoli (7.7) were outstanding, and the relay swimmers were very exciting to watch. In 2011 Bill Smith (12.7) took the Inters by storm, winning all of his events. In 2012, Bill made Trinity College very proud by being called to higher duties; he was unable to swim at the Inters due to the Inters clashing with the Olympic Trials. The Trinity swim team congratulates Bill on his amazing achievement. Of course, the boys named were not the only strong contributors to the team. There is real excitement surrounding the future of swimming at Trinity and with a bit of hard work and unity, we can become a very strong team. Thanks to Jayden for his valuable efforts as captain this year and special mention to the coaches who helped throughout the season, especially Jakeb Norman (’09) and Taylor Colton (’09). Mr Dion Mepham Swimming Coach

We have some particularly talented boys in Year 11 who will make fine leaders next year. Nic Brown (11.6) won the 1st Div 50m backstroke and butterfly and is a fantastic team contributor. Liam Pardini (11.5) is the backbone of the team with his solid contributions in freestyle and breaststroke. These boys are enthusiastically backed up by the likes of Matt Evans (11.7) and Josh Zekulich (11.3). In Year 10 Thomas Rigoll (10.1) and Michael Braut (10.5) again swam manfully, but will need to be backed up by their teammates, who all need to do a lot more work.

Tennis Mr Geoff Jamieson 1st VIII Coach

During the weekend of the Trinity bye in Term 1, our 1st team again played an afternoon match against the WA Vets Team. The Vets again showed they are the masters of the tennis courts with another convincing win. Over the last eight years we have beaten them only once, to the boys’ disappointment and surprise. I would like to express my thanks for the contribution made by Kathryn and Robert Dixon who have managed the morning teas for the past two years. They have also had great support from a number of other parents. The Trinity morning teas continue to be outstanding.

Tennis Awards The 1st VIII had a very successful start to this year’s competition with very promising form during Term 4 of 2011. While not playing every other team, we were undefeated in the matches played. This gave us every confidence leading into the Corr Cup during Term 1 of 2012. Eventually, we had to settle for equal 4th place, which was lower than expected. However, analysis of the six matches played revealed very close losses to the three teams above us. The results are a credit to the boys in the team. Their willingness to work hard at training and always compete to the best of their ability makes it a pleasure to work with the team. Year 12 students Michael O’Sullivan (12.3), Matthew Dixon (12.3), David Gileno (12.5), Ryan Ward (12.4) and Stephen Sertorio (12.3) have all made a significant contribution to the team and leave us with a strong nucleus in the 1st team to build on. I look forward to uncovering new talent to promote into the team. It is important to mention here our Captain Michael O’Sullivan (12.3) who has led the team with distinction over the last two years. I would also like to recognise the contribution of Michael Arthur (12.4), Thomas Manley (12.5) and Luke Marsala (12.5) who have trained with the 1st squad and played with plenty of enthusiasm, mostly in the 2nd VIII team. These boys have to keep the pressure on the 1st team members to continue to perform well or lose their place, and their standard of tennis gained from training with the 1st squad has helped the 2nd VIII have a very successful season. Brendan Malarkey (’01) has again served as our professional tennis coach working with the 1st VIII as well as the 8A, 9A and 10A teams. His knowledge, experience and ability to get the best out of our students ensures that Trinity teams will always put up a competitive fight in all tennis matches. He continues to be a very valuable asset to Trinity tennis.

Volleyball Mr Brendan Chapman Coach 1st VI

The Trinity College Volleyball Club has taken a definitive step forward over the past 12 months as a result of many enthusiastic members driving the club into an exciting new era. I thank everyone who has made a positive contribution to the club over the past 12 months. I would also like to specially thank all of the parents and staff members who have been involved on the committee and I encourage any interested parents to join the committee to ensure a continued effort in the future. I am sure that the overwhelming success that has been exhibited off the court will translate into greater success on the court for many years to come. In 2012 our Year 7s were lucky enough to be under the tutorage of Mr John Overton and Mr Cody Versteeg (’11). For the club to be successful in the senior years it is critical that the boys get off to a good start, acquiring the fundamentals of the sport in an enthusiastic environment. Our Year 8 teams experienced considerable improvement guided across the course of the season by Mr Sam Mettam (’10) and Mr Andrew Porteous (’11). These Year 8 students were very successful as they competed against considerably larger and older opponents from the other schools. Volleyball proved to be a very popular choice for our Year 9 students, resulting in the 9A, 9B and 9C volleyball teams. The depth across this age group led to a very successful season for these boys as they progressed towards a more advanced and faster style required by their coaches Mr Dylan Tarbett (’11), Ms Claudia Swensen and Ms Rita Basilio. The Year 10 volleyball program continues to make considerable gains under the guidance of Mr Bobby Emmanuel and Mr Dylan Tarbett (’11). Both of our Year 10 teams were largely competitive across the PSA competition. The talent in the 10A team was diluted slightly with Nicholas Butler (10.2) and Brayden Keizer (10.2) becoming worthy additions to the Trinity’s 1st team rather than playing in their own age group. This scenario actually provided many opportunities for other players to contribute and led to an overall growth and development of this age group.

Once again our senior volleyball teams, our 1st, 2nd and 3rd VI teams enjoyed very successful seasons. Whilst we finished in second place in consecutive years vying for the Brother Carrigg Shield, I was immensely proud of the way our senior teams trained, competed and improved over the course of the season. The members of our 1st VI set new standards of work ethic, commitment and tenacity both on and off the court. More important, the camaraderie that was forged and the humour that was shared will be remembered by all for a very long time. I would like to acknowledge the enormous contribution made by Mr Andrew Lillywhite (’08) to the 1st VI program. I also thank our 1st VI Captain Jack Dawes (12.7) and Vice-Captain Sean Grogan (12.4) for their leadership and the part they played in developing a strong sense of team cohesion, which set the team up for a great season. The efforts of Mr Adams and Ms Kukulka must be acknowledged for their commitment to both the 2nd and 3rd VI respectively. Their enthusiasm and patience exhibited towards the students ensured that these Trinity teams played with pride and integrity throughout the season. Once again we took athletes over to Melbourne to compete in the Australian Volleyball Schools Cup. Our four teams represented Trinity College and WA with the highest level of professionalism and sportsmanship. This experience once again broadened the perspective of many of our volleyballers to the standard of play they must aspire to in order to be competitive at the next level. The most measurable aspect when determining the success of our club this season was exhibited in the support demonstrated at home fixtures on a Saturday morning and at events such as the Annual Awards Night when we experienced a record turnout. Each year, Trinity College volleyball continues to move in a positive direction in terms of the professionalism in the club and the success that is exhibited by our teams. I would like to congratulate Nicholas Butler (10.2) and Nicholas Fabriziani (11.5) on their selection in the Under 17 State Volleyball Team, and I am very impressed by the larger number of students who have decided to advance their volleyball development in the WA Volleyball League. With the efforts of so many generous people in our community contributing to the success of our club, I look forward to a very bright future ahead of us. Mr Brendan Chapman Coach 1st VI

Mr Jim Shackleton 1st VII Water Polo Manager

After difficult seasons in 2010 and 2011, when our enthusiasm and ability never quite delivered on the scoreboard, Trinity was once again challenged in the competition for the PSA Dickerson Shield in 2012. Despite having some true talent in the team, like Josh Zekulich (11.3) who was the Australian National Goalkeeper for his age group, and Michael Braut (10.5) and Thomas Rigoll (10.1) who were members of the WA State Squad, our nemesis this season was our own youth and size. Our team consisted of mostly Years 10 and 11 students with only two Year 12s. This saw Trinity outgunned on many occasions against schools that were simply physically bigger and more experienced in the sport. Continuing in the role of 1st VII Coach was the enthusiastic Trinity Old Boy Mr Brenton Bush (’07). Brenton’s experience, dedication and hands-on approach to the sport really shone through yet again this season. All senior players trained with high levels of motivation and commitment despite the adversity of a season without success on the scoreboard. New techniques were trialled this season, such as videoing and reviewing each game in the lead up to the next. This is an innovation we hope to continue next season and may enable us to correct some of the flaws in our playing style. The 2nd VII team was fortunate to be once again coached by another Trinity Old Boy Mr Mitch Zekulich (’10) and managed by Ms Susie Edwards. Our 3rd VII team once again put in the hard hours in the pool, enthusiastically training every week, coached by Mr Brad Chapman in Term 1 and Mrs Lisa Salter in Term 4, 2011. For the keen and fast developing Middle School teams, Mr Dion Mepham along with two Old Boy coaches, Mr Simon Brown (’07) and Mr Jeremy Power (’10), once again took the reins. They were ably supported by Mr Basil Psanoudakis and Mrs Judy Dawson from the teaching staff. Some true talent from these Middle School teams has caught the eye of some knowledgeable observers of water polo, and I look forward to seeing it shine in the senior team in the future. 286

To give a blow by blow analysis of the season for Trinity would be unfair, as the results do not reflect the effort put in by the students. Led by Captain Hugh Pilgrim (12.2) and goalkeeper Josh Zekulich (11.3), the players of the 1st VII made the opposition earn every point scored against them. Despite not showing in the results listed on the competition ladder, Trinity did hold their own in many of their games. Against almost all opponents, the team continued to fight on with tenacity in the second half of every game. A highlight of this was the game against Hale School that produced a down-to-the-wire, nail biter of a game, which we narrowly lost. The ability of the players to keep their chins up despite some hard hits to their egos ensured that no opposition team treated a match against Trinity lightly. Overall a disappointing season from such a hardworking team, but the efforts of many Middle School students, and Years 10 and 11 players will ensure that the next few seasons of water polo at Trinity College will be promising indeed. Of particular note this year was the efforts of our parent support group led by Mrs Elizabeth Perry, highlights of which were the breakfasts at the end of every training session and the Old Boys versus the 1st VII game at the end of season wind-up. My thanks also go to all the departing Year 12 students; your contribution has been most valuable. Mr Jim Shackleton 1st VII Water Polo Manager
