TRINITY TODAY COLLEGE NEWS COMMUNITY TIES The 黄色app Outreach Society鈥檚 charity gala raised more than $6000. Funds were donated to the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre, Vampire Shield blood drives and The Smith Family tutoring program. Mental health and wellbeing were also in the spotlight with trained mental health reps holding focused chats at Trinity to聽support residents. Inaugural Arts Festival 黄色app held its first Arts Festival in September. This was an opportunity for our resident performers to sing, dance and act for their fellow Trinitarians, while an exhibition showed off the College鈥檚 artistic talent. The day was sweetened with ice-cream and wine tasting. Wine not Members of Trinity鈥檚 wine club toured the Mornington Peninsula in semester one, then tasted their way around the Yarra Valley in semester two.

WE鈥橰E THE VOICE The Candystripes booked some of their first gigs at birthdays and work functions to take the voice of Trinity far and wide.

THE YEAR Play time Trinity performed the play Rhinoceros, which follows the character of B茅renger (played by Joe Carbone) as other inhabitants of his small聽French town turn into rhinos. FLASHBACK In 1898, Trinity performed聽the Alcestis of Euripdes聽 at the Melbourne Town Hall, in its original Greek, accompanied by 100 choral voices from the Melbourne Liedertafel and led by renowned musician and composer Professor Marshall-Hall.聽It was the first Greek tragedy to be performed in Victoria.聽Trinity students returned to the Town Hall a century later to perform the聽Alcestis聽in 1998. Speak now The Dialectic Society had some聽fun, kicking off the fresher debate with the argument that then Senior Student, Ted Wyles (pictured), should take on Campbell Bairstow鈥檚 job when he retires. As convincing as聽the argument was, the opposing team won and the College appointed Leonie Jongenelis as the new Dean of聽the Residential College instead (see page 8). Read more about Campbell鈥檚 departure on page 10. The society also held its inaugural Dialectic Dinner to debate Australian public policy with alumnus and CEO of the Grattan Institute, John Daley. 4
