Principal's News

Dear Families and Friends of Trinity Primary School,

Another week has passed us by and we now head towards the half way mark of the term. It has been an exciting week for our children with the BOITE Choir performance on Tuesday night and a visit from the fire department for our preps today. In fact our preps got to see the Firefighters in real action as they were called out to an emergency just as they had begun their talk to the children. Fortunately for us it was a false alarm and the firefighters were able to return and finish the prsentation for the children. I am sure all our prep families would have heard all about it this evening.  Ms Belinda will include a full write up of the BOITE performance next week along with some great photos and videos. It really was a fantastic experience for all the children involved and those able to attend. 

Tomorrow we will all join together to celebrate the Feast of the Assumption with mass at 10:00am. I hope many families can also join us. 

 

Enrolments 2026

We are currently finalizing our enrolments for Prep 2026 and have strong numbers adding to the steady growth in enrolments at Trinity oveer the past few years. This is in no small part due to the great reputation we have establsihed in our local community and the warm welcome visitors experience from our children, staff and parents when they have visited our school for the fete, election day voting and of course our school open days and tours. I encourage any current families who have not yet finalized sibling enrolments to do so as soon as possible either online or through the office. On Friday 12th September from 9:30-10:45 we will be having our Prep 2026 Make a Friend Day and we are all looking forward to this as the first of our get togethers for new families joining our school community next year. 

 

Book Week

As informed in recent newsletters, Book Week begins next week and Ms Kate has organized some great activities to celebrate our love of literature including a Book Week Parade on Wednesday Morning and book related activities throughout the week.  Please see the flyer below for more details.
