PSA Athletics Carnival
Well done to all the students who represented Trinity at last term’s PSA Athletics Carnival. Hopes were high that we could continue our improvement this year and begin to compete with the powerhouse athletic schools. The TC spirit was evident throughout the day, and the dedication of each student was truly commendable. This fighting spirit, along with a stronger commitment to the athletics season, will enable Trinity to achieve its potential and reclaim its status as one of the top schools in the PSA.
Ultimately, it was a very close day between the top 4 schools, and with Trinity in the mix for a top three finish, excitement grew throughout the day. However, Scotch College once again proved that they are the supreme school in Athletics, winning the Alcock Shield for an amazing seventh year running! Trinity finished in 3rd place, which was an improvement on our previous finish of 4th in 2023. This is a fantastic achievement for the school and sets the platform for what will hopefully be an exciting future competing for the Alcock Shield.
| Place | School | Points |
| 1st | Scotch College | 1683.5 |
| 2nd | Aquinas College | 1618.5 |
| 3rd | Trinity College | 1436.5 |
| 4th | Hale School | 1431 |
| 5th | Wesley College | 1295.5 |
| 6th | Chris Church Grammar School | 1221 |
| 7th | Guildford Grammar School | 776 |
Well done to Axel Walsh (10.3) who was named the Age Champion for the U16 age group with 72 points.
Thank you to the staff/coaches for their work with the students over the course of the Athletics season:
- Mr Damien Hansen
- Mr Stephen Leahy
- Mr Clint Testa
- Mr Jonothan O’Brien
