If students are displaying flu-like symptoms at school, parents will be required to collect their child from school and have a COVID test. If students are unwell, they must remain at home. Please continue to inform the school via phone if your child tests positive for COVID.

After COVID put a hold on Trinity’s Rugby in 2020, we have commenced planning for the 2021 season in earnest. 

Today, 27 girls began a three week ‘confidence into contact’ program with the ACT Brumbies development team. The program continues over the next two Friday afternoons and is still open to interested players who wish to be involved. 

The core group of Trinity’s under 16 girls team from 2019 were involved and helped show the new players the ropes. The training sessions are based around Rugby Australia’s Smart Rugby Program which educates the girls in safe technique around the contact areas of the game including in the tackle and rucks reducing the likelihood of injury.

Although there is no commitment to play the game, the aim is to enter Trinity girls Rugby teams into the ACTJRU in 2021. The competition offers a 10 a-side format in the under 14, 16 and 18 age groups running parallel to the boys 15 a-side competitions. 

Any interested girls are encouraged to collect a permission form from the office and return it by next Friday 11 December 2020 to be a part in the fun.

We are looking at offering the same opportunity to the boys rugby teams in early 2021. 

Keep an eye open for some more exciting news about Trinity Rugby’s plans for 2021 coming soon!

When your child needs to leave School early, please make sure they complete the following steps:

1. A written note signed from their parent/carer. This note can be made in the Student diary on the day of the planned absence, or on a separate piece of paper.

2. The student then takes the note to Homeroom and asks their Homeroom teachers to sign it.

3. The note must also be signed by a House Coordinator. 

4. The student comes to the front office with their signed note.

5. Front office staff assist student to sign out.

6. Students wait for parent/carer to collect them.

Please note, parent or carer MUST present to the Office to collect student.

The College should be notified of any foreseen student leave. An Application for Exemption Form is available from the College Office and is required to be completed by parents/carers and returned to the College at least 10 school days prior to any leave. Leave or travel over 10 days requires a different form; please contact Reception. If, during the period of leave, your child has assessments due they should also complete the Notification of Planned Absence form which is in the appendix of their student assessment handbook.

We love to hear about our students' achievements, so please feel free to send through any information about your child's achievements to info.tccg@cg.catholic.edu.au by Tuesday of each week. We look forward to hearing from you! Also, be sure to visit our facebook site!
