Time to Explore

As we return to School, some of our students are taking a slight detour, travelling on two magnificent St Stephen’s School Tours this week! Year 9 and 10 cross-campus students on the Lou Morrison Kimberley Tour will spend time at Indigenous community schools, learning about the Indigenous culture and language, while running sport events and discos. Meanwhile, Carramar’s Year 9 students are currently exploring our nation’s capital on the Canberra Tour!

NAIDOC Week

A brand new mural at UnitingCare West‘s Merriwa service hub, painted by our Carramar Year 10 students, was unveiled today in celebration of NAIDOC Week. A project of the Year 10 Service Learning Program, the mural creation encouraged students to embody Aboriginal culturural significance in their artwork while engaging with the local community.

Team Work Makes the Dream Work

Our Year 10 students teamed up with Rocky Bay recently to help pack bags for Vincent’s Project for the Homeless, a local charity providing care packages to those facing homelessness. This comes after St Stephen’s School students selected Vincent’s Project as a worthy charity to receive a whopping $16,000 donation from WA Charity Direct. It’s great to see so many like-minded individuals from our community joining forces to support a good cause.

Helping Hands

Our Year 10 students have been getting creative out and about in the community, participating in two days of Service Learning. One group of students have teamed up with Women’s Refuge in the northern suburbs to screen print t-shirts for ‘mums and bubs’. The design was created by one of the mums and was both screen printed and hand painted onto the t-shirts.

Clever Creation

Charis House have taken modern art to the next level, recreating a famous artwork while tackling a major environmental issue – pollution. The ‘Mona Litter’ made out of recycled plastic bags, meat trays and plastic bottle caps is a result of the joint effort from students past and present. The inventive artwork will take pride of place in Charis House.

Going Retro

A group of our Grease cast members had a rollicking good time at Delboy’s Diner in Joondalup, posing for promo pics and getting into the 50’s spirit ahead of the upcoming cross-campus musical.
We’ve kept the costumes hidden for the big event but these snippets will surely get you humming along.
