Trips & Tours
The opportunity for Trinity students to travel abroad occurs either through the language curriculum, service program or competitions. Chinese and French are among the most commonly spoken and widely used languages in the world and both are taught at Trinity. Additionally, our students have the opportunity to visit China or France every second year as part of our cultural exchange program with our sister schools in these countries.
Trinity is also invited by a variety of organisations to compete in sport, music, academic tournaments and other activities, which have resulted in invitations to travel abroad to represent the College or Australia, as well as interstate competitions.
Open to all Year 10 and Year 11 students, the Trinity2Cambodia Service Trip is a once in a life time opportunity to visit the beautiful country of Cambodia with a genuine purpose. The aim of the trip is to foster an understanding of what it means to “think globally, act locally” and to support others in an ongoing and sustainable way.
Participants will gain an understanding of how Non-Government Organisations (NGOs) operate - empowering local people to become self-sufficient so they can ultimately support themselves and their families. The trip will give each participant an opportunity to further develop skills, character strengths and values they have developed during their time at Trinity College as well as the chance to apply them in a practical way. The trip includes environmental sustainability with a visit to Wildlife Alliance to learn more about threatened species and their forest homes. Participants will also grow a sense of advocacy for these organisations helping to spread the word about what they do and why.

Trinity2Cambodia Service Award
Through the generosity of supporters of the Trinity College Foundation and fundraising activities, we are pleased to support the Trinity2Cambodia service trip by way of an award. The award exists to acknowledge a student who is striving to help others and willingly volunteers to support College life.
The Trinity2Cambodia Service Award will create an opportunity for a Trinity student to contribute to the richness and diversity of the College’s community through learning about Non Government Organisations (NGOs) abroad, performing volunteer work in Cambodia, developing new strategies to help others in need and their ability to strengthen community relationships.
For further information, please contact the Foundation Office on 8523 8754.
Trinity College has partnered with the Oak Valley Aboriginal Community to offer a unique opportunity for students to grow their understanding of Aboriginal history, culture and perspectives through a hands-on, immersive experience.
Students develop a rich understanding of Aboriginal culture by learning and working closely with Aboriginal elders, rangers and community members. They will also participate in CSIROs Two-Way Science Programme that aims to develop integrated learning programmes that connect the deep cultural knowledge of the local community with Western science.
This programme provides students with life changing opportunities for growth and self-development. Participants will not only develop an understanding of Aboriginal culture but also a greater appreciation of diversity.
