There is no doubt the anticipation for our School musical Grease is building, but it’s not just the students who are excited! The Carramar Canteen was transformed into a classic Malt Shop yesterday, with the wonderful canteen staff Heather, Krys and Rachel dressing up and offering a special American-style milkshake meal deal. Stay tuned for more meal deals, ticketing info and behind the scenes preparation!
A group of students from Duncraig and Carramar and staff members Ms Tinney, Mr Meagher and Mrs Lund travelled to Bukit, Indonesia for the St Stephen’s Global’s first Indonesia Service Tour, partnering with Bali Life Foundation.
They worked closely with the Foundation to provide fun, play-based English language activities for underprivileged children.
The trip included visits to the Suwung Community Centre at the foot of a rubbish tip in southern Denpasar, the Street Centre in Denpasar, the Children’s Home in Jimbaran, working in the Bali Life Community Garden, buying and distributing hygiene packs to families in need, and many other relational service activities.
“Our students raised nearly $10,000 collectively for Bali Life Foundation and they were outstanding ambassadors of Christ’s love to the people they served there,” Ms Tinney said.
The School’s innovative House structure is one we’re extremely proud of. It gives students a home away from home, an extensive support system and a sense of pride and loyalty. After many years of loyal service, we think it might be time for a refresh of the logos representing each space.
The House colours and mascots we all follow will stay the same but we’re looking to engage our students in a collaborative redesign of the logos, with the updated design to be unveiled in Term 3.
Students from all Years can contribute to the process, penning their own design ideas over the next few weeks and submitting them to the House Deans either in person or via email by June 1 at the very latest.
The Deans will then collate all the designs and pass them on to the School’s experienced graphic designer who will take the ideas and combine them into three potential designs, which will then be put to a vote.
We aim to open the poll on the School’s Facebook page on June 15(TBC), which will close end of day Friday, June 29, with the winner announced at the start of Term 3. You will need to be a follower of the School’s page (facebook.com/StStephensSchoolWA) to be able to vote.
An unveiling event for Term 3 will be announced closer to the time, allowing students to take ownership of their new House logos into the future.
For any questions regarding the Logo Collaboration please contact your Dean.

Judging by all of the smiles, colours, sportsmanship and cheering on Carramar oval this morning, the inaugural K-12 Cross-Country was a huge success! Students waited anxiously for the starting gun to fire before setting off, while loads of fun team activities including tunnel ball, tug-o-war, egg and spoon races and the good old sack race provided lots of healthy competition. Full results from the day will be released next week.
