Lockers
Meet the Teacher
Trinity School provides a locker for all students free of charge. Form Tutors allocate their tutees with a locker at the beginning of the academic year. If your son/ daughter was not allocated a locker for some reason, or there is a problem with their allocated locker, please encourage them to speak to their Form Tutor in the first instance. Students will need to provide a padlock with a maximum shackle thickness of 7mm. Steel cable type padlocks are not suitable due to the design of the catch. Please encourage your son/daughter to use their locker to manage valuables and text books while in school.
Each week we will be doing a short Q+A with staff members. This week is Miss Frizzi.
Role: Head of Modern Foreign Languages. Favourite subjects when you were at school: Latin Spanish and History. Hobbies: I enjoy rock climbing and a rare moment of peace and quiet with a good book!
Vacancies. Due to the continued growth of the school, the following vacancies are being advertised externally:
Favourite books: Antigone by Anouille. Prayer request: We pray for Miss Frizzi and give thanks for her dedication and her enthusiasm for the subjects she teaches. Please encourage her as she leads the Modern Foreign Languages department and we pray for wisdom for this New Year, that she may inspire the students she teaches with a love of languages.
• Teachers – from September 2018: MFL p/t, Science p/t Further details can be found on TES, Kent Teach and our Website.
Chaplaincy "…Yet who knows if you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?" Esther 5:14 This term’s Bible story of Esther has some amazing themes in it – Mr Pawson spoke to the whole school this week about facing up to tough challenges and how much God can help us in those situations. Our prayer, at the beginning of this new year, is that we may be able to hear this message and feel brave enough to take challenges head on with God’s help. Giving thanks for: Our monthly prayer meeting The talents of each of our students and every member of staff Praying for: Our new members of staff, that they feel part of the Trinity family A fantastic year for all Many thanks and God bless, Alice 2
