Well Done Trinity – Light it Red for Dyslexia

September 29, 2018

During October all Trinity College schools participated in Dyslexia Awareness Month and on Friday 26 October, all students celebrated Light it Red for Dyslexia.

During the October teachers shared professional articles daily with updated information about dyslexia type learning needs, identification and strategies of best practice.

Light it Red for Dyslexia is a national initiative to raise awareness of dyslexia. All Trinity schools participated with students invited to wear something red, red paper plane making and throwing, red cupcakes, red decorations around the schools and red electronic displays. During all these activities older students worked with younger students to help organise competitions and promote awareness.

Thanks to Northern Area and Barossa Dyslexia Group (NAAB) for their support of this annual event.

Year 10 KO Boys Soccer 2018 State Champions

September 24, 2018

Trinity College Year 10 Knockout Boys Soccer Team are state champions after defeating Roma Mitchell Secondary College 2-1 on Monday 24 September.

In a perfect start to the game Trinity struck in the first five minutes. Pressure continued and forced a Roma Mitchell own goal to make it 2-0 at half time. Roma Mitchell then scored their first to drag one back and threw everything at the Trinity defence in the final few minutes but Trinity held strong and claimed the College’s first-ever Year 10 Boys State Soccer title.

The win gained extra significance as it was Roma Mitchell who soundly defeated Trinity in the Year 8/9 knockout tournament last year. After this match last year, former Trinity soccer coordinator Marc Thomas commented that it would not be long before Trinity overtook their more physically dominant opponents. The style that Trinity played, he said, would prepare them for higher-level soccer. Skillful, possession-based soccer was what Trinity was determined to promote, even if it meant short-term losses. The boys in this year’s championship group have been exposed to this skill-based style for several years now and it is starting to pay dividends!

Congratulations to all members of the state championship team.
