Father Peter Treloar (Staff Member)
Fr. Peter Treloar, died peacefully on Friday 8 August, surrounded by his wife Jayne, son Stephen (OG 2011), and brother Richard.
Fr. Peter joined Ballarat Grammar in 2005 as School Chaplain and served our community with care and devotion for many years. He provided comfort and guidance to students, staff, and families, and his leadership in Chapel shaped the spiritual life of the School. A gifted writer and musician, Fr. Peter penned many of our much-loved hymns and delivered countless addresses that challenged, inspired, and uplifted those who heard them.
Alongside his chaplaincy, he taught Religion, Philosophy & Ethics and shared his love of music through the Performing Arts Faculty.
His legacy of faith, service, and creativity will remain with us always.

Commitment to Child Safety
Ballarat Grammar maintains a zero-tolerance approach to all forms of child abuse and actively implements measures to identify and manage any risks of harm to students within our school environment. The care, safety and wellbeing of children and young people are central and fundamental responsibilities of the School. We are firmly committed to fostering a child-safe culture that provides an environment where students are safe and feel safe, where their participation is valued, their views respected, and their voices heard in decisions that affect their lives. Ballarat Grammar values diversity and strictly prohibits any racist or discriminatory practices. All members of our school community share the responsibility to care for children and young people by promptly raising any concerns regarding their safety, promoting their wellbeing, and protecting them from all forms of harm or abuse.
