Junior School

Art Extension

The Trinity College Junior School Art Department runs a 7-week Art Extension Program for each Year 4, 5 and 6 cohorts and aims to extend students with natural talent or flair in this area. The classes focus on creating artwork that challenges the students’ skills and techniques. 

Our Year 6 boys are working with clay on a group project, striving to capture individual expressions of human emotions based on “the Magnificat”, Luke 1:46-55. Specifically, the boys attempt to demonstrate simple facial and body depictions of the oppressed and those who most need our help.

Trinity College Awards

The Trinity College Junior School awards are based upon the Ambitions of the College. These Ambitions acknowledged students for their positive contributions in many aspects of school life and those exemplars to be recognised by the school community.

To streamline the awards structure in the Junior School and to ensure their value this year, the awards are:

• Golden Honour (one per class, per term)
• TOBA (Year Six only awarded TOBA assemblies)
• Junior School Award (one year group per assembly, one from each category)
• Honour Cards (every assembly). Parents will be notified from Term Two by the appropriate teacher.

Assemblies run fortnightly and alternate on Friday to provide space in the timetable to accommodate for The Resilience Project - a wellbeing curriculum where we nurture our boys to develop gratitude, empathy and mindfulness, all part of the College Program. 

The Resilience Project has an outstanding ‘Parent and Carer Hub’ which I encourage people to access.
