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
