The number and quality of activities at Trinityhouse<br />
High School Little Falls is astounding. This<br />
includes the impressive performances of the high<br />
school production, the stunning sports results and the<br />
academic achievements. The resilience and talents of<br />
our pupils is an inspiration. It is a privilege to be a part of<br />
their “track” race. Our pupils excel on and off the field.<br />
Our Grade 9s had to engage with the serious issue of<br />
climate change and the race against global warming<br />
for a Social Sciences and Natural Sciences project.<br />
Practising Global Competencies and using an inquirybased<br />
approach, this project was academically rigorous<br />
and gave the pupils an opportunity to learn and have<br />
fun. Our pupils faced the challenge head-on. They<br />
were judged on the final presentation, individual<br />
contribution, skills used as well as their creative<br />
thinking. On presentation day, six judges – among<br />
them, external judges who have qualifications in<br />
Engineering, Zoology, and Environmental Sciences –<br />
assessed the projects. This was an important project,<br />
not only because of the subject matter but with an<br />
emphasis on future-focused learning. Pupils were<br />
encouraged to explore the material, ask questions and<br />
discuss ideas.<br />
This year’s production went the distance in its<br />
dramatisation of ‘High School Musical’ (Junior),<br />
in association with Dalro. The choreography was<br />
compiled by one of our Matric pupils, Kira Steele.<br />
A scene from the High School production.<br />
Performed every second year, our production is an<br />
example of how Global Competencies is applied in the<br />
arts. It was also our first production that included the<br />
use of digital backdrops, managed by a fantastic audiovisual<br />
crew of pupils.<br />
The Equestrian Team is on the fast track to success.<br />
The enthusiasm and commitment from the riders are<br />
evident. The dedication to the sport has developed,<br />
with results frequently in the top ten.<br />
Proving a force to be reckoned with in an argument,<br />
our Debating Team is winning fifty percent of their<br />
debates and is now part of the SACEE League. The<br />
team will debate later in the year in the final round of<br />
their league.<br />
