Carramar’s Bush Chapel is a new sacred space on our campus which invites our community to gather, reflect and connect. Students, staff, members of executive and School Council and members of the Uniting Church gathered to celebrate the Blessing of the Cross morning, welcoming God to the holy space.

When Dr Anne Aly MP recently visited our Carramar Year 12 ATAR Politics and Law students, she promised to give them a ‘shout out’ in Parliament. We were thrilled to find out she delivered on her promise and acknowledged our School on the national stage – check it out!

On behalf of the St Stephen’s School community we would like to thank Mrs Alison Murphy for coordinating the sale of the Entertainment Books and App through our campus each year.
This year a total of $1610.00 has been raised to assist with purchasing the Year 6 and Year 12 student ties.
Our school has recently subscribed to the Enhanced Learning Educational Services Study Skills Handbook.

The handbook has a huge amount of information for both students and parents as well as lots of interactive activities, multimedia experiences and useful resources.
To access the handbook, go to www.studyskillshandbook.com.au and login as a subscriber with these details:

On 4 September sixteen students attended a Year 7 Mathematics Challenge Day at Joseph Banks Secondary College. Students competed in teams of four against 26 teams from six other schools and St Stephen’s School did very well. One of our teams took overall first place with 344 points and another coming in fifth with 197 points. Congratulations to all participants, especially to the winning team (below) consisting of Bridie Le Cornu, Alex Baker, Serian Lockwood-Jones and Shailin Mandalia.
Carramar Year 12 students took part in their last ever school excursion this week, bouncing, climbing and flying at Latitude Perth. Students had heaps of fun in an afternoon complete with trampolines, ropes courses and climbing walls. It was surely a memorable occasion for the group as they celebrate their final weeks as school students!
Congratulations to Carramar Year 10 student Emily Alexander for being selected to represent the ACC in the All Stars Netball match against the combined governments schools team (SSWA) tomorrow .

All are welcome to go along and cheer Emily on as she dons the bib. Best of luck Emily!
Carramar Year 12 student Max Wood kept quiet about his selection in the U18s Australian Schools Rugby Union Championships earlier this year, representing WA in the competition in Sydney a few months ago. We just found out and wanted to share the great news with the community!
The team played extremely well and came home with battle scars to prove it, with Max breaking his nose during the tournament. What a feat!
More success for St Stephen’s Carramar today in the sport of badminton. Shailin Mandalia, Angus Hutchison, Ashwin Soney and Tom Bussche making the quarter finals and Ansu Soney and Jeevna Heer finishing as runner up in the year 7-10 Live Lighter badminton competition. Well done, a top effort!
