An independent Anglican school for boys in Sydney, NSW
Welcome from the Headmaster
You would expect to see academic rigour. To see a range of co-curricular activities. A thriving Preparatory and Junior school, where boys from Pre-K to Year 6 are nurtured. Outstanding IB and HSC results from our Year 12 young men after their time in our Middle and Senior school.
You can expect all that, and more. However, what you might find unexpected is my unwillingness to measure the success of our School by the success of our young men.
Why Trinity Grammar
At Trinity, we offer boys a thoroughly Christian education, that guides them to a full life. We seek to raise men of character, who will care about themselves, and our world. Informed by our Christian ethos, at Trinity every boy is individually known, cared for and guided to grow in mind, body and spirit. Trinity is about:
Life at Trinity
Rather, it is because they teach them how to fail. How to persevere. How to engage with others. How to grow.
Growth as a whole person is what we’re about at Trinity. Making this growth a reality is why life at Trinity includes such a wide range of curricular and co-curricular programmes and experiences, challenging and supporting them in their journey through school, and equipping them for the world beyond.

Testimonials
Mr (Andrew) Murphy (Director of Athletics) and all the staff moulded me into what I am today. Mr Murphy got me as a 14-year-old boy and turned me into an elite athlete. I don’t know of any other school in the country where that could be facilitated.
Without Trinity he would never have made it to Tokyo in the first place. Had he not gone to the School, had he not met Murph and formed such a great partnership, there is no way he would have even gone to the Olympics.
I am eternally grateful to the School. Without Trinity my boys wouldn’t be where they are. It was outstanding, and fantastic for Ollie. The whole environment was supportive and nurturing.
I really felt super supported. If it wasn’t for that I’m not sure I would have finished (my final school year). I felt they (the School) always had my back and were always there to help me.
I am eternally grateful. They helped us in so many ways, and helped Sam to go the distance.
I wouldn’t be here now without Trinity. Opportunity is the one word that sums it up – academically, sports-wise and personality-wise.
This is our spiritual home. Manners, discipline, being on time – all those things were drummed into you from the moment I walked through those school gates, and I still carry them with me. I came as a boy and left as a man.
If you are from Trinity my arms and my house will be open for you. It’s part of the camaraderie and belonging to a school that guided me through the most important years of my life.
I learned a lot of life lessons, all shaping you to be a man. I learned about discipline, keeping your uniform up to standard, showing respect to teachers, all the little things that make an impression on people.
Trinity never let you take short cuts. You have discipline and stick to a routine. In business there is an honourable way to act. Trinity teaches about mind, body and spirit, and that’s where the spirit comes in.
Good teachers know how to make you love them and do the right thing for them. They are very inspiring people.

Sport in the life of our School
Sport is an essential element in our School’s educational vision. We have a particular focus on competitive team sports. There are recreational sport options open to the boys, where the focus is on participation and improvement, but all boys are required to put on the School colours as part of a team in at least [...]
Learning from the International Boys School Coalition
During the course of the mid-year break, along with a small group of Trinity staff, I attended the International Boys School Coalition (IBSC) annual conference in Auckland. The IBSC is comprised of nearly three hundred member schools across the world who are committed to advancing the education of boys in boys’ schools. You can read [...]
The HSC and the IB Diploma at Trinity
At Trinity, students can choose to complete one of two senior credentials: either the Higher School Certificate (HSC) or the International Baccalaureate Diploma (IB Diploma). This dual-credential model in Years 11 and 12 is not always understood, either within or external to our school community. I frequently find that misconceptions and myths circulate amongst students [...]
Trinity Grammar School is located on
Wangal Country.
We honour the sovereignty and connection to Country of all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and pay respect to their Traditional Custodians and Elders past and present. As educators we acknowledge that learning has been taking place on this land for millennia.
