History

Trinity College was founded by the Christian Brothers in 1962, and various Brothers continued to be present at the school until 2005, when the last, Br Jeremy Coombe, left the school's Campus Ministry. The College still remains to have strong ties with the Christian Brothers, and many brothers visit the college for the annual Edmund Rice Mass, a celebration in the memory of the Christian Brothers' Founder.

Its predecessor, Christian Brothers College (CBC), was founded in 1894 by Bishop Matthew Gibney, Brother Ambrose Treacy and the Congregation of Christian Brothers with its main campus in St Georges Terrace, Perth. It was located in the heart of the Perth CBD, on the corner of Victoria Avenue and St Georges Terrace. CBC Perth had a brother school named St Patrick's that also taught boarders and day students. In 1938 St Patrick's School closed and many of the students were moved to CBC Perth. In that same year, heads of CBC were notified that CBC could no longer handle both day students and boarders due to the lack of space on campus. It was decided that boarders and some day boys would be moved to an alternative campus, Aquinas College, to fit the needs of all students. This page meets Wikipedias criteria for speedy deletion. ...

In 1958-1960, the City of Perth negotiated with the Christian Brothers to purchase the CBC property for £267,000 to allow for the widening of St George's Terrace and the construction of a new hotel in time for the 1962 British Empire and Commonwealth Games. The Chevron-Hilton Hotel Group, which had committed to the development, ran into difficulties, and the school buildings remained until their eventual demolition in the mid-1960s. The site stayed vacant for several years until an office building for the Australian Taxation Office was built there several years later.

Sport

In sport, Trinity competes against the other schools of the PSA competition which it joined in 1968. Trinity teams have won the 1st XVIII football competition four years in a row, and the Athletics three years in a row. 2007 however marked the break in their winning streak as Trinity finsihed 69 points behind Aquinas College.

Trinity's arch rival in the PSA is Aquinas College. This rivalry has evolved over the years and comes about as Trinity and Aquinas were once the same school, the close ties between the two schools, the spirited even tussles on the sporting field and the common bond of being Christian Brothers' schools.

In 2007 Trinity won the PSA swimming for the first time. The summer season of 2007 was the best ever for Trinity when they won the PSA Swimming, Rowing (First eight and Hamer cup), Cricket and Basketball.
