Try a Trade is a 3 day course designed to give students a practical idea of different trades. The pictures below show students from the Duncraig and Carramar Campus participating in plastering, tiling and bricklaying. The boys were enjoying their first day and were so enthusiastic, the lecturer had to slow them down.
Puberty brings lots of changes for your child – and for you as a parent too! Your child is transitioning from child to adult – and you may feel uncertain or have questions about how best to support them through the physical, psychological and emotional changes this brings. This evening workshop will equip parents with information about brain development in the “tween years”, what physical, psychological and other changes to expect and accept, more about puberty and mental health, parenting strategies on how you can support your child, and how you can partner with the school to ease the transition to high school.
Best suited for parents of children in Years 5, 6 and 7. No registration is required.

As part of their Science studies, Carramar’s Year 7 students were fortunate enough to learn firsthand about water sustainability from an Education Officer at the Water Corporation. Inspiring students to use less water, the presentation focussed on where we use water most in our households, and how much water Perth uses in a day (that’s 1GL – enough to fill the WACA to the top of the lights!).
Our Carramar athletes put on a stellar performance at last week’s ACC Cross Country Carnival, placing 25th out of 75 schools! Congratulations to Aleesha Bailey and Madison Breeze who placed 18th and 22nd respectively in the Under 13 Girls, and Jeevna Heer who placed 17th in the Under 15 girls.
Duncraig’s Remy Rowse and Rachael Edwards have also just been announced as ACC Cross Country All-Stars for their awesome efforts. Well done everyone!
The Carramar campus was buzzing last Friday as Primary and Secondary students celebrated Arts Day with some creative fun in the sun. Among the face painting, games and chalk drawings, the cast of Grease the Musical donned their costumes and performed some famous tunes!
The Carramar Rookie Debaters enjoyed a delicious breakfast this morning to celebrate the end of the season. Our winning team, consisting of Shyna Shah, Siya Kothari, Jordane Sharafizad and Noah Carter, will now compete against the Duncraig Campus’ winning team. A big thank you to Mrs Eleanor Glacken who has organised this competition for our Year 6 & 7 students and all those students who participated.
Young golfing pro Kirsten Rudgeley (Carramar Year 12) can now add another feather to her cap, after being voted as Captain of the Western Australian team in the recent Women’s Australian Interstate Series. Not only has Kirsten dominated the Australian golfing scene, she’s set to jet off to Europe next month to compete in not one, but four golfing championships. Go Kirsten!

After a few false starts the Senior Boys AFL team were finally able to take the field in a game against Wanneroo Secondary High School. After a bright start the boys took an early lead but missed a couple of chances that then allowed Waneroo back into the game. The team was lively in the second half but the polish of the opposition meant that they were able to make the most of their opportunities.
Whilst the boys were not victorious, they displayed an entertaining brand of football and thoroughly enjoyed their game.
Congratulations to Carramar’s Kyle Maher (Year 10) and Parsa Sonboli (Year 11) who won gold, silver and bronze medals at the Annual State Lifeguard Titles over the weekend! Kyle and Parsa demonstrated a high level of skill, agility and fitness as they showcased their pool lifesaving skills.
