OSHClub
Here at Junior Adventures Group, we believe that every child deserves a chance. That’s why we are so proud to partner with The Smith Family. We are determined to help create a better future for disadvantaged children in Australia and we need your help!
St Stephen’s OSHClub children and educators have discussed ways we can help raise funds for The Smith Family and have decided to run a Dream Run Raffle and stall. Raffle tickets are available for $2 each or 3 for $5 before and after school at our OSHClub transportable near the large oval. You can view the prizes to be won when purchasing your ticket(s).
We would like to invite all families to visit our stall after school on Friday 23 of June outside the school canteen with our raffle to be drawn by Madame Pilote at 4:30pm. The stall will have a variety of cakes, popcorn, playdough, cups of homemade lemonade available and other items for sale. Prices vary from 50c to $2. We look forward to seeing you there!
In the meantime, please feel free to visit our Smith Family fundraising page https://events.thesmithfamily.com.au/fundraisers/ststephensoshclub
All donations over $2 are tax deductible and you will receive a tax receipt via email straight away.
Sadly, 1 in 6 Australian children are living in disadvantage and through no fault of their own, don’t have access to the learning essentials they need to succeed at school. By donating to our fundraising page today and participating in our raffle and stall, you can help these children to believe in themselves and achieve their dreams with Junior Adventures Group matching all donations, dollar for dollar, up to $50,000.
Thank you so much for your support.
Warm Regards
St Stephens OSHClub
Term 2 Running Club
All students in Kindy to Year 6 and their families are encouraged to join Miss Uglow on the Primary Green every Thursday morning to run as many laps around the Green as you can! No matter what your ability is, come on down to earn House points, improve your fitness, build your confidence and run your way towards a healthier lifestyle.
Each participating individual will be given their own Running Club lapathon card to count their laps every week. Runners will earn 1 Running Club House Point for every lap they complete around the Primary Green. Running Club lapathon cards must be left with Miss Uglow at the end of each session. You will use the same running club card each week unless you have reached 100 laps… after that you will need a new one!
WEEK 7 RUNNING CLUB House Points: (drum roll please…)
| CHARIS | MAKARIA | PARRESIA |
| 109 | 67 | 108 |
Congratulations to CHARIS House for running the most laps in Week 7… and Parresia House only one point behind! Keep up the great work everyone!
100 LAPS Club
Congratulations to Elsie Shaw (3BE) who joined the 100 Laps Club by completing 100 laps on her running club card!
We will meet on the Primary Green every THURSDAY morning from 8.00am – 8.25am. Come dressed in your sport uniform or normal school uniform and running shoes. You can still participate even if you are not dressed in your sport uniform! Everyone is welcome – you do not need to sign up to participate in this club. Run at your own pace and come and go as you please. Parents/guardians and younger siblings are encouraged to join in too.
Arts & Academic Festival 2023 – Schedule
St Stephen’s School Primary School Rock Band
It is with great excitement that the music department announces the birth of the St Stephen’s School Primary School Rock Band. The band will be comprised of students in years 4 to 6 who will rehearse one morning per week before school with the view to perform at school events, assemblies and concerts. This will be a fun opportunity to put all those hours of instrumental (and vocal) practice to good use and to learn the art of making music with others! This is a trial and it will run over Semester 2, with continuance in 2024 to be determined during Term 4.
To be part of this exciting trial, students will need to:
CURRENTLY be taking (and will continue to take) individual lessons on their instrument. These individual lessons may be taken with either an external or internal tutor and proof of this will be required.
- Attend an audition in which they will need to play a song/piece of their choosing that is at least 30 seconds long. This should demonstrate the level of the performer as accurately as possible. (Don’t stress too much! It’s not a test!)
We are looking for musicians who can play the following instruments:
- Piano/keyboard
- Drums
- Guitar (acoustic or electric)
- Bass Guitar
- Vocals (singing)
We are currently fielding expressions of interest so that we can get everything running smoothly. If you are someone who plays an instrument (or sings) and you would like the chance to be part of our rock/pop band then please do one of the following by Wednesday 14 June:
- Send an email to gina.craven@ststephens.wa.edu.au with the following information:
- Name
- Year/Class
- Instrument you play
- How long you have been undertaking lessons with the instrument
- Collect a form from the Reception Office, complete and return to the Reception Office.
