Banding Together

At Trinity, our Music program is vibrant and varied with ensembles and bands that thrive in the specialty spaces that include large teaching and rehearsal areas and soundproof and practical instrumental tuition rooms. Music is offered as a Rotational subject in Year 7 and students can elect to continue right through to Year 12.

We have specialist instrumental tutors who visit the College to provide tuition for voice, piano, drums, brass, woodwind and string instruments, and participants have the opportunity to join one of our ensembles and perform at school events and external concerts.

Performance is an integral part of the progress of our musicians and regular evenings that showcase their developing talents are popular with the students and their families. Held in our auditorium and at external venues, the experience is invaluable to their learning and confidence and also a wonderful way to share culture and art with our community.

Trinity College has a number of music groups and ensembles that are available to all students, including:

• Concert and Events Bands
• Choir/Vocal Ensemble
• Junior Rock Bands

Instrumental Music Program

Trinity College supports an instrumental music program whereby various music tutors can instruct Trinity College students on campus during the school day. To enable this program to take place, the College provides venues for these lessons and students are permitted to leave their scheduled rostered class to attend the music lesson.

Parents are responsible for the payment of the cost of these lessons, which are charged by the tutor directly to the parent.

In the interests of the safety of our students, we ensure that the tutors hold either a Working With Children Card or a Victorian Institute of Teaching Card. Music tutors also must sign a Child Safe Code of Conduct, read the Child Safe Policy and be familiar with and complete the Mandatory Reporting eLearning Module.
