PATRON'S DAY 2025
'Make me a channel of your peace Where there is hatred, let me bring your love...'

These deep-rooted words echoed by a pious man centuries ago, still resonates with all - irrespective of caste, creed or religion. For he was someone, who in his frugal humility was austere beyond words. On Saturday, October 4th the Trinity family gathered to commemorate the feast of St Francis of Assisi, a Capuchin Friar and Patron of the school. In the morning, Catholic students and staff celebrated the feast with a meaningful Eucharistic service, presided over by Principal, Rev Fr Dominic Sunil Lobo, which was held at the school chapel, Trinity Vihar.

Thereafter, the faculty, staff and students gathered at the Trinitorium for the programme. Ms Elria of Grade 5 welcomed the gathering, after which the choir sang a beautiful song, dedicated to St Francis of Assisi, followed by a dance performance. In her speech, Ms Rachel of Grade 9 spoke conveyed about the significance of the day, reflecting on the values and principles of St Francis of Assisi. A short skit, highlighting on the most important events and places of prominence in the life of St Francis of Assisi was enacted through a verbose presentation by the students. The act conveyed the origins, motto and importance of the various names of the school blocks, namely Bonaventure, Brindisi and the four house groups - Greccio, La Verna, Spoleto and The Principal, conveyed his good wishes and blessings to the Trinity family. He also conveyed that we, Trinitarians must make every effort to emulate the values and visions of St Francis of Assisi not just in school, but also in our everyday lives. He spoke of developing on the values of humility, prayerfulness, faith, strength, kindness and courage.

With the proposing of the vote of thanks by Ms Deona of Grade 7, curtains were drawn to yet another meaningful and enriching programme. Ms Juana and Ms Elria of Grade 5, and Ms Rashel Prisha of Grade 9 compered the programme.
