Welcome to 2021,

My name is Caz and in collaboration with Rebecca Cooper and Donna Wade we are proudly leading the Trinity community in 2021. Our staff are significant leaders in our school and we are blessed to have staff whose first priority is student learning.

A new Principal is a significant change to a community and there are often questions. I have communicated who I am and my expectations to staff. My hope is that you may have some understanding of who I am and my expectations after this newsletter.

I am a woman of faith, you can expect me to be equitable, questioning, resourceful and hardworking.

I am interested in relationships, you can expect me to be approachable, thankful and to rely on you.

I am and will stand for learning, you can expect me to be in partnership with you, understand your child’s needs, seek your collaboration, and ask difficult questions.

I met with the staff last week and took the opportunity to share with them who I am, as well I shared what others thought they should know about me. With that thinking, the question, what would others like the community to know about me is relevant.

My dad would like you to know; Mrs Perryman was so excited when she was given the news that she was going to be your Principal. She was also very aware of the multitude of responsibilities that come with the job. I am sure you will enjoy her as much as she will enjoy you.

My mum would like you to know; Mrs Perryman is tenacious, gracious, hardworking, but more importantly she now has the Trinitarian community as a focal point of her life, that means she will honour that responsibility, she will work collegially with everyone in the community and make sure that the community of Trinity is the best it has ever been. That is her strength that is her tenacity.

My husband, Ben would like you to know; She always comes from a place of love, she sets high standards for everyone so that everyone can reach their potential, this includes herself. She is approachable and non-judgemental, she often says to me “What would Jesus do” when she is having a hard time.

New Teacher: This week we welcomed Genevieve Albert to Trinity, who is the Year 3/4 teacher; it is wonderful to have Gen part of our staff. Gen has been a classroom teacher in rural Australia, as well as being employed in Early Childhood through to Year 12 in England, before moving back to her hometown of Young. Gen is a driven educator who believes in building authentic relationships and teaching children to become faith-filled contributors to society. Gen believes in enabling students to be confident and kind learners who dream big, making the future bright for generations to come.

Swimming Carnival:  WOW, Trinity really know how to run a carnival!!! What an amazing day; student engagement, student achievement, student celebration all done with such high standards. The focus on all students being engaged and all students achieving their PB was exceptional. So many students said to me ‘Mrs Perryman, I did my PB. Congratulations to the community lead by Donna for such a magnificent day.

Meet & Greet: Please join us next Wednesday for Meet and Greet. At each presentation I will share with parents and carers our system and school goals. I strongly encourage you to come along as this will be an opportunity for you to understand the significant focus on learning that Trinity will have.

Sessions are:

K-2: 6.00pm-6.30pm

3-4: 6.30pm-7.00pm

A BBQ will be available for all families in the library courtyard.

Canteen: The school canteen will operate every Thursday and Friday for lunches. Each Thursday there will be a $2.50 sweet treat and on Fridays a $6.50 meal deal. Please note there is no canteen available for lunch orders on Wednesday! The canteen is also open Wednesday to Friday at Recess for ice blocks etc. A menu will be sent home today.

Gods love to you and your families,

Caz Perryman

My son Jordan, who is 24, says to me “Mum what an awesome time to be alive”

He is so right, we can be our best selves, today.
