Other Extra Curricular Programs
Students participate in a variety of non-athletic programs as well, including dramatic, musical, academic, and social justice clubs. The Holy Trinity drama department has grown year by year and a performance is put on every year. Each year the stature of these performances (either musicals or straight plays) has grown substantially. Holy Trinity also boasts a very successful Student Cabinet, elected each spring, that has donated over $100 000CDN to the greater community since its inception just over four years ago. Notably, the HT Student Cabinet led a successful Terry Fox Foundation fundraising campaign in September 2010, setting a school fundraising record of over $30 000CDN. Holy Trinity also has a student-teacher run program named Trinity Earth that raises awareness of environmental issues in the school community and beyond.

Famous quotes containing the words extra and/or programs:
“Myths and legends die hard in America. We love them for the extra dimension they provide, the illusion of near-infinite possibility to erase the narrow confines of most men’s reality. Weird heroes and mould-breaking champions exist as living proof to those who need it that the tyranny of “the rat race” is not yet final.”
—Hunter S. Thompson (b. 1939)
“Whether in the field of health, education or welfare, I have put my emphasis on preventive rather than curative programs and tried to influence our elaborate, costly and ill- co-ordinated welfare organizations in that direction. Unfortunately the momentum of social work is still directed toward compensating the victims of our society for its injustices rather than eliminating those injustices.”
—Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)
