Free Dress Day

Tuesday (Kindy – Year 5) students will have a non-uniform day, this is the second last day of term. As we have already completed our fundraising for BACA “Kids in Care” and the Uniting WA collection this term, there will be no gold coin donation on this day. Please ensure that students wear clothing that is suitable for activities where they may get a little dirty, as they will be clearing out their belongings and enjoying some fun activities in the morning.

Wednesday (Year 6) students, have their graduation on Tuesday, so they will wear formal uniform on Tuesday and Free dress on Wednesday as they then have the Year 6 colour run.

 

Colour Run (Year 6)

On the final day of school, the Year 6 students will participate in a Colour Run.  Students may want to bring/wear a white shirt for this event.

Thank you for considering this opportunity to support our school and our feathered friends!

 

Dear Families,

As the year draws to a close here at St Stephen’s School, we wanted to take the opportunity to say thank you to the community for all you have done to support the school this year.

The continuous effort and commitment in supporting the students has been wonderful and has played an enormous part on the successes we have had in 2024.

As we reflect on the year, it has been great to see the number of ‘firsts’ combined with some longer standing traditions of the school. This is testimony to the continuous growth of the school while staying true to the identity that has been the pillar of so much success in the past.

As this is the last Primary blog for the year we wish each and every one of you a wonderful Christmas and a New Year filled with hope, prosperity, and blessing.

With deepest appreciation and warmest wishes,

Thank you,

Andrew Johnston & Hannah Lockwood-Jones

Guinness World Records 2025 Book

We understand that many families were anticipating the release of the Guinness World Records 2025 book as a keepsake for our record earlier this year. The team at Guinness World Records have informed us that due to the timing of the event and the publishing schedule, the St Stephen’s School record for “most people launching confetti cannons simultaneously” will feature in the 2026 book which will be published at the end of 2025.

In the meantime, if you would like a personal memento of the day, you are able to purchase a personalised Certificate of Participation at https://gwrstore.com/collections/certificates-of-participation?page=1
