Year 6 Blue

Mr Bernard Le Tessier Year 6 Blue

Again, the year has gone by at a rapid rate. This year I have had the great pleasure of seeing a group of enthusiastic and polite boys grow and develop into fine young men. There have been many highlights along the course of the year.

In Term 1 the year group attended a leadership camp/ retreat at Camp Kelly in Dwellingup.

This assisted in preparing the boys to receive the sacrament of Confirmation in their parish. Sporting highlights were many. Particularly meritorious events included the regaining of the Ian McRae Cup in the derby game against Aquinas. The Year 6 classes also experienced a very successful tour to Kalgoorlie. The boys learnt a great deal about the history and importance of the goldfields to the development of WA, and the camaraderie displayed was exceptional: really displaying that TC Spirit of being Men for Others.

I look forward to following their continued growth and development throughout the Senior School.

One of my favourite memories was in Year 5 when we got an incubator and eggs. Our first chicken was called Usain Bolt because it was the first chicken to hatch. Every day we held them for about ten minutes. Trey Dawson

My best memory was when the prefects decided to have an Amazing Race Trinity. My team was made up of Seb, Harry Z. and me. We figured out the puzzles and came first. Alexander Pagano

My favourite was the Ian McRae Cup. Our whole team played well and it was a wonderful win. Following the game we had hotdogs and a drink. Jayden Egitto

One of my best memories is going to the movies at the end of Year 5. We went to Fremantle and Hungry Jacks and we had ice cream and lunch. Matthew French

I think one of my favourite moments in the Junior School was Unfair Day. You roam around the school, playing fun games. One of my favourite games to play was the Weet Bix challenge. Ryan Harris

My favourite memories from the Junior School were the swimming carnivals. When I was in Year 4, swimming carnivals were all new to me because at my old school it was only interschool carnivals. Jack Harvey

My favourite moment of Junior School was in Year 6 when we went to Kalgoorlie. To get to Kalgoorlie we went on the Prospector train. One of the days we dry-panned with crushed quartz. When I was panning I found two pieces of gold. Gaudi Robbins

One of my favourite memories was when we went to the WACA for the cricket World Cup 2015 launch. We played a game of cricket on the WACA ground which was very fun. Kobe Jones

The most memorable moment in the Junior School was Year 6 with Mr Thompson with our Bullying? No Way! video. I liked it because I did it with all my friends and we had fun when we were filming. Marcus McRostie

In 2011 at Trinity College, the end of year concert was called Ratbags. It was amazing and fun, led by Miss Rich, who is our Music Teacher. Max Watervoort

One of my favourite memories was when the elections for prefects and house captains were held. I was trying to get a role as a prefect. After the elections were over I was a prefect along with 11 other boys. Nicholas McDonald

One of my favourite moments in the Junior School was in Year 5 when Mr Maxfield’s class made the mousetrap cars. Max Mistilis

One of my great experiences in the Junior School was going to interschool chess and winning a third place medal. My friends come second and then they played the top team and won. Thomas Marissen

One of my favourite things about being in Miss Grech’s class was when we made our own Australian inventions. The aim was to make a model of an invention, a PowerPoint about it and what the world would be without it. Alexander Santoro

In violin I played many songs. It was challenging and with other violinists, we played a James Bond music piece which was really cool. Michael Miocevich

My favourite part about being in the Junior School was in Year 4 when we were given our own beans to grow. After two weeks we were able to take them home and plant them in the garden. Jacob John

One of my best memories is interschool sport where the PSA schools play against each other. I play cricket and footy. Michael Thomas

One of my favourite memories in Year 6 was playing the French horn for the first time. I remember practising at home which was rewarding and fun. Jacob Mangan

My best memory is Forrest Edge. In Year 5 we went on a huge flying fox. The best part was that my awesome dad came. Brendan Murphy

When we went to Kalgoorlie, we all had great fun, learned a lot about gold and became closer to each other. Ryan Tan

In 2012, Year 5 Blue made balloon-popping machines. We ended up making a successful design and we popped three balloons in a row without a mistake. Adam Knox

Near the end of Year 4 we got iPads for educational uses. The iPads helped make school work easier. The iPads are just another step in technology. Matthew Roche

My favourite thing was when we went to the 2nd Avenue aged care facility. When we played to the residents they were so happy. I think we made a difference that day. Adam Ricci

My favourite thing in the Junior School was art. Art can be hard but it’s also very relaxing, even if you’re not very good. You can just release your creativity! Joshua Pham In the Term 2 this year the Year 6s formed groups of five and made a video on cyber bullying. Then we showed the rest of the school our videos. Jake Pizzuto

One of the things I did in Year 6 Blue was play the role of Jesus in the Easter Paraliturgy. The other thing I enjoyed in Junior School was winning the amazing race. Sebastian Ellison
