SWIM TEACHER TRAINING COURSE at Trinity January 8th & 9th

If you have an interest in teaching swimming as a part time job in the swimming industry, or gaining a real-world workplace qualification (great for resumes), we will be providing an opportunity for TC Swim Team boys to complete this certification in the January holidays.

You must be 16yrs old by the course date (Yr 12 & most Yr 11 in 2022) and we will have some positions available during Vacswim at TC to complete your practical hours.

Enrolments open tomorrow (Wednesday) via the Royal Life Saving Society link https://royallifesavingwa.com.au/training/swim-teacher-by-royal-life-saving-/c-25/p-308060

Please note- places are capped at 20 & this is listed as a ‘public course’ so anyone can enrol. The longer you leave the enrolment, the more chance that the course will fill up with non-TC participants.

4 weeks into our 2022 season!

We are 4 weeks in to our 2022 season and a lot has happened. We have had record attendances, fantastic breakfasts, new pb’s, 3 time trials and a whole lot of excitement has been generated.

The discipline shown by the boys who are attending has been nothing short of exceptional (even with the addition of pushups past 6.25). It is great to see the extra workload paying dividends via increased fitness levels.

We are also very thankful for the generosity of the parents who have given freely of their time to cook and serve breakfast.

There are a few reminders that I would like to keep in the front of your minds-

  1. We are hosting a swim meet between Trinity, Perth College, Penrhos, Ursula Frayne and Wesley on Saturday Nov 13th at TC, 3pm-5pm. Adam, Sam & I would love to see as many TC boys attend as possible.

You need to book your attendance and race preference, as this is a big(ish) meet and we need to cater properly. Parents, your support with various duties would be greatly appreciated.

  1. Training will continue through until Monday November 29th (6 more sessions). We are aware that there will be exams in there and a few year groups will finish school, but I’d encourage you to still make the commitment to attend swim training. We want 50 boys attending training each session.
  2. There are a number of team members that we haven’t seen at all for training, please let them know how valuable they are to our success.

Let’s keep the momentum going boys.

Unfortunately, the volunteers can’t take cash as there are no facilities to record the payment.

Breakfast cost is $58.50 for the Term 4 Swimming Season, that’s $4.50 for 13 swimming sessions.
Bacon & egg burger, hash browns, and a drink – that’s great value we think!
