Soup Kitchen Stars

Last Thursday Carramar students Natasha Hollier (Year 12) and Amber Bertoldo (Year 10), along with their teacher Mrs Justine Brightwell, assisted at the Salvation Army Soup Kitchen drive in Northbridge. The morning began when they left St Stephen’s at 6am,  headed for the Perth CBD, where they then served breakfast to those less fortunate. Little do some know, this routine has been taking place once a month for the past year. It’s wonderful to see students and staff alike dedicated to serving members of our wider community.

 

“Just Keep Swimming, Just Keep Swimming…….”

Our Carramar secondary students definitely dived into the second day of Swim Camp – they even took part in a fitness circuit to really wake them up! Students took advantage of the local swimming spot at Hillarys Marina for a lovely morning swim session and managed to squeeze a spot of beach volleyball into their packed itinerary.

 

A High School Highlight

Year 12 students dazzled in their stunning suits and gowns recently, to celebrate one of the highlights on the school calendar – the School Ball. Carramar students graced stunning Fraser’s, in the tranquil surrounds of Kings Park, dancing the night away in a special occasion to remember. 

Multi University Presentation

Tuesday 2 February our Year 12 students were visited by representatives of WA’s major Universities – Murdoch, ECU, UWA, Curtin and Notre Dame. The morning was a great success as students heard from each institution about admission, new offerings and alternate entry pathways. This left the students plenty to consider as they embark on their final year at school!
