Ways to Support

The George Rutherford Scholarship Fund was established in 2010 to honour the retirement of George Rutherford, Head of School from 1992-2010. The income from the fund provides a $5,000 scholarship to a Grade 11 student who demonstrates a commitment to academics, respects others and enthusiastically participates in the life of the school.

Every year since 1981, the Board of Governors has set aside funds with an aim of building an endowment to provide financial aid to students. The fund was established to accumulate capital until such time that it could support the funding of one or more scholarships.

This bursary was established by the Terbrugge family in 1990 to honour the memory of Edwin Alexander Terbrugge. Edwin died in a car accident when he was a Grade 5 student at HTS. The fund provides a scholarship to a Grade 7 student.

In 2006, the Governors' Fund was established to generate sufficient income for financial aid. Since 2008, 65% of HTS' annual operating surplus has been allocated to the Governors' Fund. Any excess funds from annual bursary expenditures are also allocated here.

In 1996, the Merritt & Margaret Harding Endowment Fund was established to provide income to fund a bursary for a deserving Senior School student "whose character and achievements at the school exemplify Holy Trinity School's mission statement."

The Timothy Pryce & Friends Memorial Fund was established in the memory of Timothy Pryce and 12 friends who died in a tragic canoeing accident. Its objective was to pay for the tuition of students who would not otherwise be able to attend St. John's School of Ontario. In 2000, when St. John's School of Ontario ceased to exist, the Directors transferred approximately $200,000 to HTS. The income from the fund is used to award one or more scholarships to students in Middle School and/or Senior School.

Awarded to the student in each grade, from Grades 7 to 11, with the highest academic standing based on their overall average.

The Trinitarian Award is designed to encourage students to soar to their fullest potential and engage in their own personal growth. The award has three levels: bronze, silver and gold. A student must complete all of the requirements of a particular level in order to proceed to the next level. At the core of this award are HTS’ founding values of respect, integrity and confidence. Students develop competencies in Experiential Learning which includes various experiences in physical recreation, arts, service, global education and leadership. Through this process, students not only become well-developed citizens, but they develop as reflective leaders that are guided by their values.
