It is our belief that crises reveal the character of a community. That has certainly been the case during the recent travails of COVID-19. Our students, staff and parents have responded impressively, negotiating the changes and challenges elegantly.
It has been a difficult time for many, and the difficulties may continue for a while yet. However, the TGS community response to those affected has been very warm. A compelling example was when several families forewent their 2021 Term 2 rebates and asked that they be passed on via the TGS Care Fund to those who need support at this time.
We invite people to make contributions to the TGS Care Fund to assist in providing ongoing support. The TGS Care Fund will help ensure that COVID-19 does not disrupt the education of students whose families have been financially challenged in the current climate. To make a gift to help support these families, please refer to the details below or click here to download a Gift Form.
In addition to the TGS Care Fund which is administered by the School, the Parents Association has formalised a program of providing food for families who are faced with challenging times such as illness, hospitalisation or bereavement. The TGS TLC Community Support Group is a tangible example of Trinity families looking after each other. There is a roster of wonderful volunteers who provide delicious meals and lunchbox items, as well as a fund for donations which enable the purchase of additional items of TLC such as a meal delivery service, supermarket vouchers and hampers.
