TRINITY GRAMMAR SCHOOL

Principal's Message
Standing on our Anglican foundation and shaped by our Christian ethos, Trinity is a school that seeks to ensure that every boy is individually known, cared for and guided to grow in mind, body and spirit. We aim to help raise men of character who will care about others, our world, and themselves.

The mission of Trinity Grammar School is to help boys discover their innate talents and unlock their full potential within the context of a supportive Christian environment. Centrally located in Sydney’s Inner West, Trinity Grammar School celebrates its ethnic, religious, and geographic diversity. For more than a century, the school has guided boys to grow in mind, body and spirit and knows what boys need to truly flourish and succeed.

Your son will be guided and mentored by a dedicated and skilled staff that is committed to ensuring your son is well supported and encouraged to reach his full potential. By getting to know your son’s unique abilities and hopes, he will be understood and inspired in Trinity’s unique way.

From Pre-Kindergarten to Year 12, Trinity’s thorough and challenging curriculum is delivered by highly specialised and passionate teachers who get to know each student and make learning engaging and exciting.

Trinity empowers boys to pursue their passions, whether it be in academics, sport, creative arts or performing arts. It is one of only nine schools in the world to be accredited as a World Academy of Sport Athlete Friendly Education Centre (AFEC). This allows the school to provide flexibility and support for exceptional student athletes to study the IB Diploma over a period of up to four years rather than the standard two years.

With a reputation forged on outstanding academic results and arguably the most extensive curriculum of non-selective independent boys’ schools in NSW, Trinity offers your son a wealth of subjects to choose from.

Pre-Kindergarten to Year 6 adopts the International Baccalaureate’s Primary Years Programme (PYP) based on an inquiry learning model. Your son will pursue his own interests and make meaningful connections with what he is learning to his home, the community and the world.

Years 7 to 10 offer the standard subjects in addition to Latin, French, German, Classical Greek, Information and Software Technology, Commerce, Music, Graphics Technology and more. Years 11 and 12 offer Ancient History, Biology, Business Studies, Chemistry, Chinese, Entertainment Industry, French, Hospitality, Information Processes and Technology and more.

As an alternative to the HSC, Trinity offers the International Baccalaureate Diploma (IB), which is a two-year rigorous international academic curriculum. Subjects include a first and second language, Humanities, Science, Mathematics and an elective subject. In addition, students undertake unique courses such as Psychology and Theory of Knowledge.

Trinity Grammar School, which commenced the IB program in NSW in 1998, delivers the widest range of HSC and IB subject choices in NSW with dedicated classes and experienced IB teachers, and has consistently achieved outstanding results.

As an alternative to the HSC or IB Diploma, Trinity, as a Registered Training Organisation (RTO code 91644), offers boys in Years 11 and 12 a unique vocational pathway with VET Certificate II courses in Construction Pathways, Electrotechnology and Hospitality, and Certificate III courses in Information Digital Media Technology and Entertainment.

Encompassing school-based traineeships, these courses are exclusive to Trinity and provide boys with both vocational training and an ATAR. Additionally, there is a national-accredited Certificate II Leadership Through Cadets course, the only one of its kind in Australia. This means boys may access demanding and challenging courses that promise real academic accomplishment achievable through hard work and good teaching.

The school’s state-of-the-art Field Studies Centre, located near Huskisson, aims to bring boys out of their urban surroundings to learn about the local area and their responsibilities as custodians of the unique bush environment. The Field Studies program further enhances the school’s ‘best practice’, holistic approach to boys’ education and allows for integration of skills such as problem solving, organisation, teamwork, leadership and judgement as well as academic and physical pursuits.

Trinity Grammar School

Trinity Education Support Services (TESS) provides integrated support to students with special needs across all campuses. The team consists of registered psychologists, specialist teachers, speech pathologists, occupational therapists and teacher’s aides.

With a wide-ranging curriculum that caters for all students, your son has his best chance of realising his potential, passions and purpose in life, at Trinity Grammar School.

Co-curricular activities form an essential aspect of Trinity’s well-rounded approach to develop students in mind, body, and spirit, with one of the largest co-curricular selections in NSW across music, creative arts, sports and other clubs. The Preparatory, Junior and Middle and Senior campuses offer a significant range of activities, teams and cadets, notably all covered as part of Trinity’s all-inclusive fee model.
