does more harm than good. And this was the idea
conceived in the skit performed by the students of

Just
as two centuries by the captain Virat Kohli brought
the team Royal Challengers Bangalore to its winning
ways, so too Trinity Central School, Perampally
remained true its motto “Enlightenment through
Knowledge” when it slammed back to back centuries on

The
annual conference of the Association of ICSE and
CBSE schools of Udupi and Dakshina Kannada Districts
(AICS) was held at Bhuvana Jyothi Residential
School, Shirtady. ‘Rethink the Principalship; Shape
the Future’, was the Theme of the Conference. The
two days conference attended by a number of
Principals and teachers; animated by eminent
speakers like Rev. Fr Denzil Lobo, SJ, Dr Gururaj
Karajagi, Prof. Matthew Nainan etc., was really an
enlightening experience. ‘Change is the need of the
hour and if one does not change along with the
change, one will become extinct’; with such thought
provoking ideas the sessions was aimed at making the
principals and teachers to rethink the past and
improve on in the days ahead. The conference indeed
was a fruitful one and will definitely benefit the
participants in making Trinity a bit more vibrant
for our little ones.
Having
answered the mid-term examinations the students and
the parents were naturally anxious to know the
results. Hence, before the vacations could commence,
the school announced the results on three
consecutive days for lower kindergarten, higher
sections and high school students respectively. The
three days’ programme was well organized with input
sessions by eminent resource persons about
parenting, academics and present challenges that
parents and students face, announcements by the
principal about the various imminent events, open
day and the announcement of the results. Thus, the
curtains were drawn on the first term of the
academic year 2015- ’16.
A
great number of Trinitarians form the group of both
Scouts and Guides. The student members of these
groups along with their guides and masters landed in
Someshwara Nisargadhama which is a part of
Someshwara reserve forest for a day’s experience in
the woods. The day unfolded with a lot of adventures
and activities, learning of life saving skills, fun
and frolic and eventually culminated in the trekking
into the jungle daring the rain the blood sucking
leaches. Nonetheless, the Trinitarians emerged
triumphant with all smiles and cheers at the end of
the day; a few with tears, bruises and leach bites
though. It was worth an experience.
The
Trinity Family gathered together in front of a
beautiful and well-built multipurpose shelter for
its blessing and inauguration. Rev. Fr Anil D’Costa,
the principal lead us into prayer of blessing as the
choir chanted ‘showers of blessings’. The three
pretty angels who celebrated their birthday cut the
ribbon and officially threw the structure open for
use. This is a small extension named after our
patron St Francis of Assisi, which could be used for
various purposes of the school. 
The senior students of Trinity were literally geared
up to show how well they can disguise themselves as
saints, scientists, astronauts, vendors, pirates,
statues and many more. Of course! It is only for the
fancy dress competition held in the ‘Trinitorium’.
It was like a refreshing oasis after the rough
desert winds of mid term examinations! 
October
3rd was indeed a joyous occasion for the Trinity
Family of Perampally as it rejoiced with Fr. Vijesh
Menezes, the Vice principal of the school who
celebrated his gift of life. Though it was a
Saturday, a day busy with activity classes the
teachers and the students made a point to wish their
beloved vice principal after the completion of
activity classes. The small celebration began with
Fr. Anil D’Costa, the principal, speaking his heart
out through his words of appreciation to Fr. Vijesh
for all that he does to the school. Thereafter Mrs.
Maggie Lewis the coordinator handed over the bouquet
to Fr. Vijesh as a sign of love and gratitude. Fr.

department of Hindi Language of Trinity Central
School hosted the ‘Hindi Divas’, a day to show off
our skills in Hindi language under the leadership of
Ms Poornima. Various competitions in Hindi were held
previously in the school for different sections of
students and today being the culmination the prizes
were distributed for those who stood out. We had Mr
Hamjadh, an advocate and members of PTA along with
Mr Maxim D’Souza, another distinguished member of
PTA were present as the guests of honour alongside
Rev. Fr Anil D’Costa, the Principal. The guests
spoke and stressed on the importance of keeping
alive the rich languages and traditions of India
once of which is Hindi.Various cultural dances,
songs, skit and speeches displayed the literary
skills of our students. 
The
little Trinitarians participated in the fancy dress
competition with an overflowing enthusiasm. There
were mother Theresas, Gandhijis, police men and
doctors; flowers, plants and fruits; tigers, bears
and cats. Each one looked better than the other
giving a tough time for the judges to determine who
could be the winners. It was a feast to the eyes to
behold them so graceful. 
‘It
takes a big heart to shape and form the little
minds’. It is the day when we express our gratitude
to all those teachers who are responsible to forming
our minds right through our life. This was the
apparent mood in the campus of Trinity as the
students took the lead to celebrate the teachers’
day. It was a day bustling with activities of
different kind. The floral arrangement competition
was held in the early hours of the morning where
students tried to arrange the beautiful flowers and
made them look even more beautiful. This was
followed by formal teachers’ day celebration
entirely organized by the student body. Ms Magdalena
Lewis, the co-ordinator delivered an apt message for
the occasion. The students thanked the teachers for
what they are with some cultural dances and songs,
cute gifts and lot of smiles. The teachers in turn
wished them every good in the future.

the working of the club and stressed on the aspects
of various skills of interact for the betterment of
humanity. Rev. Fr Anil thanked the dignitaries and
encouraged the students to take up such
responsibilities as that come their way. 
It
was a proud moment for Ms ShaviAishal Lobo, a class
V student of Trinity when she secured first place in
the swimming competition held by JCI, Saligrama –
Kota Temple City on 23.8.2015. She swam to success
in both relay and free style categories. Trinity
family congratulates her for her success and admires
her hard efforts in achieving this feet. All the
very best for your future Aishal.
The
remarkable chapter in the history, to which our
country awoke in the middle of the night of the 15th
day of August in the year 1947, was yet again
exuberantly and proudly remembered by the
Trinitarians. The ‘Trinitorium’ was soaked in the
colours of patriotic zest and zeal. The Tricolour
was hoisted and honoured along with the rhythmic
music of the school band. The Chief Guest, Rev. Fr
Stephen D’Souza, the director of Udupi Diocesan
Biblical Catechetical and Liturgical Commission,
along with Rev. Fr Anil D’Costa, the Principal
received the Guard of Honour from the marching
Trinitarians. Various songs, speeches and dances
added sheen to the gleaming celebration. A number of
parents witnessed the grand event.
Another
brand new school bus rolled into the campus of
Trinity to cater to the growing need of a fast
growing school. Having assessed the quality of the
product and the service the management decided to go
for yet another ‘swarajmazda’ school bus. Fr Anil
D’Costa blessed the new vehicle along with the
drivers, students and the staff and flagged it of
for service. It will pick and drop the students
right from this day!
Politics,
as we witness at the moment, seem to give us leaders
devoid of sense of service, rulers without concern
for their people. To outgrow this sort of a
prejudiced air in the political arena it is
important to know how sacred politics in fact is and
how to keep it as clean as a flowing stream. With
this vision for the future, the student-leaders of
Trinity held the first ‘parliament session’ in the
auditorium, not merely to assess and evaluate the
functioning of the various offices but to pin point
the concerns and draw a suitable solutions to every
problem that the student body faces. Undoubtedly,
there were heated arguments, war of words,
refutation of ideas and exchange of views,
maintaining the dignity and respect of the
parliamentarians and the parliament, all for the
better functioning of the portfolios.
Evaluation of the proceedings followed thereafter
along with the valuable suggestions and guidelines
for the forthcoming sessions.
A
salute to Brother Sun and a kiss on the cheeks of
sister Moon, an amusing smile with the brother Wind
and the sound of laughter with the sister water. All
in all the celebration of the ‘Vanamahotsava’ day
brought all the Trinitarians back to the feeling of
being in the ever comforting bosom of our beloved
mother nature who gives life so abundantly yet
suffers so much due to the selfishness of her
children! Trinitarians decided to do their bit by
planting a lot of saplings to paint the parched
earth green yet again. The young minds were
enlightened by the thought provoking speeches by the
guests, MrSathishBaba Rai, Assistant Conservator of
Forest, Mr Ramesh, Range Forest Officer, Mr Dayanand,
Deputy Range Forest Officer and the Principal Rev.
Fr Anil D’Costa himself. 
Music
is the language of the Soul. A soulful melody filled
the air as the Trinitarians boldly faced the
audience and the mike for the solo singing
competition. ‘Everyone may not be a great singer and
a great singer may come from anywhere’, this was the
mood throughout the competition which lasted for
three days, batch by batch of course. Some sang with
tears, some others sang with emotions, some sang
from the heart, some others sang with a lot of
laughter but the great thing is ‘every Trinitarian
did sing’.
Having
received their respective offices and the
portfolios, the various office bearers of the
student council including the SPL and the ASPL took
the oath, pledging to fulfil the responsibilities
entrusted to them to the best of their abilities in
a simple ceremony during the assembly. The former
ministers and leaders handed over the school and the
house flags to the new ones as a symbol of handing
over the office and expressed their experiences
being the leaders last year. The Principal Rev. Fr
Anil D’Costa in his message spoke about the
importance of being a minister and a student leader.
There
have been many ‘new’s this academic year in the
campus of Trinity and now yet another ‘new’ to
behold. Presenting, the new school uniform of the
Trinitarians. After a lot of discussions and
deliberation the management was of the mind that
previous design and the colour of the uniform was a
bit impractical in the humid climatic conditions.
Therefore, a new design and the colour were
proposed. Having done a lot of ground work we have
zeroed in on this design which we proudly present
and the children happily put on. Trinity dawns a
brand new look now and the bright colours catch many
glances. 
Rev.
Fr Joseph Dolphy Pais, the Provincial of the Holy
Trinity Capuchin Province of Karnataka is here with
us to hold the canonical visitation of the friars at
Trinity Vihar. During his busy turn of events he
made time to be with the Trinitarians too. He saw
us, met us, spoke to us, addressed us and inspired
us with his message. The Trinitarian family is ever
grateful to his presence and wishes his health and
happiness.
The
grade 10 students of 2014-15 of Trinity have indeed
made us joyful by securing a 100% results in the
board examinations. It was our turn to make them
happy and tell it to the world about what they have
achieved. Therefore, a sweet felicitation programme
was organized in the school campus along with a
victory procession in the area around Perampalli,
Santhekatte, Kemmannu and Thottam. The students were
honoured and the hard work of the teachers was
gratefully remembered. The procession rolled out
with the beautifully decorated school busses and
other vehicles.
Having
soaked in the fun and frolic of two month long
summer vacations the Trinitarians rushed into the
campus yet again with a renewed vigour and zeal to
commence another academic year. The Trinity which
was silent thus far rose into life when children
poured into her classrooms with broad smiles and
excitement (a few tiny tots did not stop crying
until given a candy though!). On the first day all
the busses were blessed early in the morning before
they rolled out to bring the children to school. The
blessings of God were invoked for the safety of the
children and those who drive and manage the
vehicles. Besides, a holy Eucharist was celebrated
to thank God for being with us all these years and
to ask Him to continue to be with us and guide us
through the year and always. 
The
first Parents’ - Teachers’ Meeting of the academic
year was organized as Trinity is all set to kick
start another year of teaching and learning with her
goals and aspirations intently set in the mind. The
huge gathering of the parents was addressed by
renowned advocate and our beloved neighbour Mr
Shirtadi William Pinto his words of wisdom deemed
necessary for every parent and teacher in the
process of upbringing the children in the right
direction. The principal thereby addressed the
parents enumerating the various norms of the
institution and the programme of the year. Ms
SushmaSuvarna welcomed the dignitaries and the
gathering. All the faculty members were introduced
by Ms Archana Shetty. The programme was well
organized and lead by Ms Shruti D’Souza. Imploring
the graces from God we begin the academic year on
the 1st of June and wish every success and glorious
days ahead. May our endeavours this year be pleasing
to God and His people.
Ms
Arshad, an assistant teacher of Trinity family has
made us proud by securing the first rank and a gold
medal in MA from the Open University of Mysore in
English Literature. She deserves a standing ovation
for all the hard work she has put in despite her
tireless work in the classrooms of Trinity in order
to achieve this feat. She was felicitated by the
Principal, teachers and the management along with
the best wishes and prayers for all the good things
that are in store for her in future. We indeed are
proud of you, ma’am.

Unfortunately,
as the instances of child abuse are on the steep
rise the Trinity took an initiative to spread
awareness about the issue among all her students.
Now a strong committee is set up comprising of
counsellors, teachers and student representatives to
give a listening ear to the grievances of our
children and to prevent any such unpleasant
incidents in and outside the campus. A video clip
featuring Amir Khan from his famous
‘SatyamevaJayate’ series regarding child abuse and
safety and another video dealing with the same issue
were screened for all the students, thus, pledging
to commit ourselves for the wellbeing of each
Trinitarian.

campfire which lighted up the starry night and
delightful dances and singing around the bright
flames did fill us with a lot of fun and frolic. 
The
Trinitarians happily watched skywards as the last
piece of metal of the auditorium structure was
welded in place by the workmen today. What a sigh of
relief to find a vast shelter over our heads. Indeed
a long term solution for the summer’s heat and the
monsoon rains. Indubitably, an apt place for games,
for programmes, for learning, for yoga, for
activities and for many more purposes and
possibilities. With the completion of this hilarious
task now the Trinity dawns a bright new look at the
very entrance and welcomes all its children with an
‘extra arm’ outstretched. Nonetheless, it has not
been so easy. 
The
entire family of Trinity stood shell-shocked when
the sad news of the death of their beloved teacher
Fr. Gerald P. Pinto fell into their ears. It was so
sudden and unexpected that Fr. Pinto said good bye
to his earthly sojourn and passed away for his
eternal reward to God. It all happened on the night
of 8th September. Having celebrated the feast of the
Birth of the Blessed Virgin Mary he had his supper
and went off to his room. Within minutes he suffered
a massive cardiac arrest which took away his life
without notice. The last rites were held at
Perampalli Church and the burial took place in
Farangipet, Mangalore witnessed by a huge crowd of
students, teachers, family members and loved ones.
BGS School, Kavoor, Mangalore hosted an inter
secondary school (CBSE and ICSE) Chess Competition
on 4th July this year. The Trinity School Chess team
comprising of eight boys and two girls took an
active part in the same. The competition lasted for
a day in the ‘Swiss League’ System under two
categories viz., under 17 and under 14. Our team
competed well with all the enthusiasm and energy
winning a few rounds. But unfortunately they failed
to pave way for the quarters and the semis.
Nevertheless, we wish all the very best to our team
for the forthcoming Chess matches.
Following
a torrential monsoon showers, the School Celebrated the Vanamahotsava
Day in the School Premises on 8th July witnessed by all the students and
