Trinity College Colac

Our Year 9 students recently took part in Wellbeing Day, with a full day of workshops focused on building confidence, resilience, self-awareness and positive relationships.

The girls participated in an engaging program delivered by Enlighten Education, exploring confidence, resilience, relationships and a strong sense of belonging.

The boys took part in another valuable day with The Man Cave, focusing on emotional literacy, healthy masculinity, respectful relationships, mental health, consent and building stronger connections with themselves and others.

Thank you to Enlighten Education and The Man Cave for providing our students with meaningful opportunities to learn, reflect and develop skills that support their wellbeing.

Trinity Day was a fantastic way to finish Term 3, with a great day of food, fundraising, friendly competition and plenty of Trinity spirit.

Students ran a variety of stalls to raise funds, while our Year 12 Boys took on staff in netball and the Year 12 Girls challenged staff to a game of football. It was also a special day for our Year 12 VM students as they celebrated their final day at Trinity.

A huge thank you to all our competitors, stall operators, gold coin donors and enthusiastic supporters who helped make the day so memorable. What a way to finish the term!

Six students competed at the Chess State Qualification Tournament in Werribee last week, representing the College with determination, resilience and great sportsmanship. Every student secured at least one win, with Max (Year 8) coming agonisingly close to State Finals qualification, missing out by just one win. Congratulations to all six students on a fantastic effort.

Yesterday was R U OK? Day, an important reminder to check in on the people around us and make time for meaningful conversations. A simple question, a genuine conversation and taking the time to listen can make a real difference. Let’s continue to look out for one another and support our students, staff, families and friends, not just on R U OK? Day, but every day.

A fantastic day out for our Year 7 and 8 basketball teams, taking on Colac Secondary College, Lorne P-12 College and Apollo Bay P-12 College.

All Trinity teams went undefeated, showcasing great skill, teamwork and determination throughout the day. A special mention must go to our student umpires. Their commitment to keeping the games running and ensuring everyone had the opportunity to compete was fantastic and greatly appreciated.

Well done to all our players and umpires on a fantastic day. With the Greater Western competition on the horizon, these teams are certainly ready to test themselves against some strong competition. We can’t wait to see what they can do!

Our Year 8 Boys Soccer team competed at the State Final last Friday, battling hard in two extremely competitive one-goal games against the teams that eventually finished first and second in the pool. They responded with a dominant 5–1 victory in their final match, finishing the day with plenty of pride in their effort, teamwork and persistence. Well done to the team on a fantastic effort.

Our Year 10 Social on Friday night was a fantastic evening! Students started the night by joining their parents on the dancefloor for some traditional dances before taking over with their favourite songs and dancing the night away. It was a memorable evening filled with plenty of fun, laughter and great moments.

Our Annual Father’s Day Breakfast took place this morning in the Jubilee Centre, bringing families together for a special morning of good food, fun and connection. Alongside coffee and delicious egg and bacon rolls, families enjoyed a few games and quality time together. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the morning so special. We wish every Trinity father figure a very Happy Father’s Day!

While many of us are eagerly looking forward to the end of winter, our Year 11 students and staff made the most of the snow on their Ski Trip to Mount Hotham last week. The group enjoyed plenty of time on the slopes and made the most of the conditions, creating some fantastic memories along the way.

Great work from our students who competed in the Have Sum Fun Online competition! We’re thrilled to celebrate two fantastic results, with one team finishing 2nd and another 5th out of 48 teams. A fantastic effort from all our students who took part. Well done!
