Socktober

Thank you to staff, students, parents and the Trinity community for supporting our Sock it to Poverty! fundraiser on Thursday 29 October. We raised $94 for Catholic Mission!

Day for Daniel

‘Day for Daniel’ is Australia’s largest day of action to raise awareness of child safety, protection and harm prevention. Trinity celebrated their ‘Day for Daniel’ today by wearing red. This day is set aside to help raise awareness of child safety. Parents, carers and educators are encouraged to start a conversation with children and young people about personal safety. 

St. Vinnies Christmas Appeal

This year, Christmas will be like no other. After the year that no one saw coming, many families are without jobs and are under increased financial stress, some for the first time in their lives. With more families facing uncertainty, no one knows what to expect for Christmas Day.

Vinnies is committed to making Christmas a time to renew hope.

Our school community can play an important part in renewing hope for the thousands of people who face an uncertain Christmas. Together, we can continue to bring financial relief, Christmas hampers and smiles of love and laughter to the people who need it most this season. The students at Trinity, and the Mini Vinnies Team, will be engaging in opportunities and events in the upcoming weeks to raise awareness and support for St. Vinnies Christmas Appeal this year.

Spotlight on Kinder/Year One in Religion

This week I would like to ‘spotlight’ the work Kinder/Year One and Miss O’Brien have been doing in Religion in the classroom. I was absolutely amazed to see the beautiful work each student had completed and was willing to share with me and the pride in which they spoke about their topic, God’s Creation. I would like to thank Kinder/Year One and Miss O’Brien for allowing me the time to come in and share in their wonderful learning experiences in the classroom.

Followed by Youtube clip of the children sharing one thing they are grateful to God for: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DU4_6kpxPgE
