  • Description

    Trinity College is one of Australia's foremost tertiary institutions. It is an acknowledged leader in offering innovative educational experiences to high achieving students.

    Among these is the Young Leaders Summer School, an outstanding two-week academic and personal development program designed to give senior secondary students an intellectual and social edge for their final years.

    It provides exciting opportunities for students to experience a hands-on taste of university life, to be inspired and challenged by leading academics in a range of subject areas, enjoy stimulating extracurricular activities, and build understanding and friendships with other young people from across Australia and the world.

    All students participate in a Leadership Development program, and further select to undertake an Elective World Stream. In all Streams, class based activities are augmented with field trips and students are encouraged to develop the self motivation and sense of enquiry that are required for success at University.
