Our philosophy and approach reflect the African proverb, "It takes a village to raise a child." Our village at Trinity is a globally connected and community-minded one, and we focus on developing the head, heart, and hand equally. In this way, we develop globally-connected and internationally attuned young people whose personal and work lives will span the boundless border of nations and countries through the intelligent, responsible and ethical use of emerging information and communication technology.
We are community-minded. Our parents, teachers, and college stakeholders, including alumni, past parents, community leaders, and governments (local, state, and national), collaborate to provide excellent 21st-century learning opportunities for our young people. All learning is centered on clear and distinct Christian values based on Lutheran traditions, helping our students to learn and grow into balanced and contributing citizens.
Our Mission is to be a Christ-centred community nurturing and empowering every learner to serve our world. Our vision is to be a globally connected and innovative learning community developing heart, head, and hand for personal excellence.
