Study Skills Workshop
A successful exam preparation/study tips workshop was delivered by Peer Leaders at Bendale BTI to all the grade nines in January. The workshop was designed by Trinity’s Ayshia Degia and Alain Joubert. We had a great day at Bendale! Best wishes to everyone who wrote exams this semester.
Peer Mentoring and Bullying
Mentoring work on bullying was carried out at Victoria Village PS in January. The grade five Peer Leaders visited classrooms of students in grades one through four. Great Job Peer Leaders!
Thank You

Benefits
The Trinity program will strengthen a school community’s ability to address its most difficult issues. Specific and measurable outcomes include:
- The school gains a strong resource of peer leaders, mentors, mediators and facilitators
- Through commitment, both young and older students gain confidence and feel valued and empowered
- Students, as well as administrators and staff, gain a greater knowledge of issues facing their school and their community
- There is an increase in communication between senior and junior students, adults and students
- Students become more involved and engaged in leadership roles and co-curricular activities in the school, as well as community volunteerism
- Easing of anxiety and tension in transition from middle and secondary school
- Earlier identification of students who experience exclusion, harassment, relational aggression, or bullying
- There is a reduction of anti-social behaviour, suspensions, explusions, and incidents of skipping school
