Your studies at Trinity Theological College
Here at Trinity Theological College, we welcome, teach and support students from a range of denominations, cultures, and countries who, like us, pray that all people might “know the only true God and Jesus Christ.”
Your education will take place in a community of prayer, fellowship, and service with staff and peers. Face-to-face classes, easy access to your lecturers, the library, and study desks will help you reach your academic goals. One a week we have a crèche available, allowing spouses to attend classes.
But studying at Trinity is about more than just obtaining an academic qualification. We seek to foster a loving, worshipful community where we are all spurred on in faith. Free time in the student lounge, weekly community lunches, chapel services, Pastoral Care Groups, and doing missions together give you the opportunity to build life-long relationships and great support networks.
Trinity Theological College has a purpose-built facility, “Trinity House,” located in Newcastle Street between Loftus and Oxford streets in Leederville, just 5 kilometres from the Perth CBD. Its convenient location makes it easily accessible via public transport, car or bicycle.
You’ll often spot groups of Trinity students in the local cafes, enjoying each other’s company as they unpack some of the powerful stuff they’ve learned in class that morning!
Prepared for Ministry
“During my time studying at Trinity I was struck by the strong Christian convictions of the faculty, which has given me solid grounding for Gospel ministry at my church. Seeing the story of the Bible as one unified whole, centred on the person and work of the Lord Jesus, is foundational to my role teaching and preaching to our young adults and children. A great bonus was training alongside other believers, building friendships and networks that are a support in my ministry.” Josh Van der Kooij (MDiv)
