Trinity College is a multi-site, independent, co-educational Anglican College founded in a liberal educational tradition in northern Adelaide. We are open to all who want their children educated in a caring and Christian tradition regardless of economic status, ability or religious affiliation. We provide exceptional facilities, support inspirational and expert staff with a passion for education, and deliver an outstanding sense of community.
