A history of Giving
At the beginning of the 1930s, Trinity Grammar School’s doors had been open for just 17 years, with a total of 118 day boys and 45 boarders. Still in its youth, the School had a large debt to sustain, and with parents feeling the economic pressure of the Depression, enrolments – particularly of boarders – fell significantly.
When the threat of closure loomed and financial assistance from Diosesan authorities waned, the personal guarantee of loans by generous Council Members lifted this threat and facilitating the School’s continuing ability to grow, sustain itself, and give back to the School community.
1940 -1950s:
The Trinity Grammar School Memorial Chapel is an important part of today's Trinity landscape and it only exists as a result of generous fundraising efforts from generations gone by. Throughout the 40s and 50s, Trinity students, staff, and parents raised a significant amount that allowed work on the Chapel to begin. Today, the Chapel still stands as a central building in Trinity life and a testament to the power of community generosity.
