The Trinity College and College House Cultural Exchange - a great success!

Welcome back to the 16 Trinity College students who ventured across the Tasman to spend four nights experiencing collegiate life at College House.

College House, a residential hall at the University of Canterbury in Christchurch, New Zealand, welcomed the group with open arms and were generous hosts.

On Friday evening, Tonya Bernardo (1st year Commerce), Alex Hinchcliff (1st year Arts) and Dave Parncutt (4th year Arts) represented Trinity in the debate and attempted to persuade the audience that Australia and New Zealand should join forces to become one great nation.

Morgan Hepburn-Brown (3rd year Biomedicine), Stephen Treloar (1st year Arts), Alena Broesder (1st year Commerce), Jay Kim (1st year Arts), Kane Lo (2nd year Commerce) and Callum Russell (2nd year Biomedicine) then shocked, humoured and entertained the audience in Theatre Sports and after some deliberation by the judge, were victorious against the very talented College House Theatre Sports team.

At the Monday evening concert, Trinity and College House students performed 25 musical items, showcasing their exceptional talents.

Juliet Archibald (1st year Arts), Julia Stretch (3rd year Arts), Kat Droppert (2nd year Arts) and Gaby Lefevre (1st year Commerce) gave sweet, soulful and sultry peformances involving vocals, the ukelele and piano.

Alex Galligan (1st year Commerce), Jay Kim, Tom Li (2nd year Arts), Joe Kim (1st year Commerce) and Callum Russell were captivating and provided the audience with a range of brilliant vocal, guitar, paino, bass and beat boxing peformances.

On behalf of Trinity College and College House, a very big thank you to Dave Parncutt who helped to make this exchange seamless and enjoyable for all.
