The history of Tranby Day
Tranby Day commemorates the Tranby setting sail from England in September 1829.
The Tranby serves as a namesake for our College but also as a symbol of our collective journey towards knowledge and personal growth.
The Tranby and its passengers faced many setbacks, as we all do, but through teamwork, perseverance and faith, they reached their destination.
Just like those aboard the Tranby who ventured into the unknown, we too embark on an adventure filled with learning, discovery, and self-development.
As we celebrate Tranby Day, we are reminded of the journey that brought us here and look forward to the exciting path that lies ahead.
