It was wonderful to have the opportunity to meet and chat with all of you over Monday and Tuesday. We congratulate you on the effort you made during the interview – really well done, we know it wasn’t easy!

While we were intending on making a decision by Monday, we have had a great calibre of well-deserving students apply, and it is important that we don’t rush this process and that we finalise a few matters in our decision process. For this reason, it may take us a bit of extra time to make a decision on the team selection.

All parents & students will receive a letter in the post, with further information posted here.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

 

Thank you to all those who have applied; it is great to see such an interest!

The next stage will be for all students to individually meet with the tour staff on their respective campus. We are currently in the process of allocating specific interview times for each student. From Thursday Recess, students will be able to collect a confirmation page which will outline the time their interview is held, and where. If you have a class on at this time, you will need to show your teacher your confirmation note at the beginning of class so they know you will be absent for a short time.

At this stage, students will be interviewed over the following days:

Carramar students – Tuesday 13th May with Mr Belson & Mr Kirby
Duncraig students – Monday 12th May with Mr Belson & Miss Young

Please collect your confirmation letter from Student Services from recess Thursday. If you are unable to collect yours for any reason, please email Mr Belson (dave.belson@ststephens.wa.edu.au) and a copy will be emailed to you as PDF which you can print.

Looking forward to meeting with you….
