Announcement: Letter to Parents

N.B. Circulated ONLY among Trinity College parents

Dear Parents,

Pray this letter finds you in good health. As we have reached another year, please accept our sincere thanks for the confidence you have placed in our ability to form your children. Please note the following carefully:

1. Trinity College will reopen for students on Monday, the 6^th of January 2025 for the 1^st term of 2025. We have uploaded the full school calender 2025. Kindly visit the College website for all the details. It is important that the parents are aware of the activities of the College throughout the year.
2. A 15% increase in school fees will come into effect from the 1^st term 2025. Please refer to the detailed school fee chart that will accompany this letter. Please make note the following regarding students with school fee arrears:

1. Will not be promoted to the higher grade [2025]
2. Ineligible to register for public examinations and school-based exams.
3. Ineligible to represent Trinity College at sports and other co-curricular activities.
4. Students with long-term arrears will be removed from the school register.

We strongly recommend that parents discuss this crucial issue with the school administration to avoid the aforesaid actions. All agreed payment schemes will be valid only for one year and will be periodically reviewd. Kindly note that the school will not make any exception regarding the surcharge on delayed payments.

• As a part of our effort to efficiently manage the 2025 budget, we are forced to make significant reductions in recurrent expenditure. Parents will be required to bear certain transport and food expenses, especially in junior age-group sports.
• Parents should be aware of the school policies related to attendance, academic activities and examinations, awards, student appointments, ISER framework [discipline], etc.

Whilst thank you for your coorperation and confidence in all our efforts, we need to collaborate further in accompanying our children on the Trinity journey [academic, character, skills]. On behalf of the Board of Governors, College Executive Council and the staff, I wish you a Merry Christmas and a grace-filled New Year 2025.

Respice Finem
