SERIOUS SWIMMERS

Fitness was the focus at the Carramar Secondary Swim Camp, with students alternating between swimming and circuit work to strengthen their skills. The group also trained in the open water at Mullaloo Beach and Hillary’s, making the most of the local facilities and the glorious weather!

FINE YOUNG ATHLETES

13 of Carramar’s finest cricketers, led by captain Rajit Bose and group leaders Oliver Williams, Munish Senghani and Milan Dabasia (Year 12), recently competed for the Graeme Wood 20/20 Shield. Despite not taking out the win on the day, the boys played exceptionally well, with Harry Klemm (Year 11) hitting some huge sixes and Ronan Fitzgerald (Year 10) bowling well and taking some great catches. Well done boys!

IN TUNE


Over 40 Carramar Secondary students celebrated the fifth annual Music Camp over the weekend, spending two days rehearsing for choir and a variety of ensembles. Their practice resulted in a concert for family and friends on Sunday! Students were also joined by St Stephen’s Alumni who shared their musical knowledge and skill.

LET THE ART SPEAK


A variety of colours, textures and mediums were on show for the opening of the 2019 Northern Perspectives art exhibition Friday 1 March, with Year 11 and 12 students from various local schools displaying their artwork.
An impressive 22 students from St Stephen’s exhibited their artwork, with Madeline McAllan (Carramar Class of 2018) taking home a Highly Commended award for her piece. The exhibition runs until Saturday 6 April at the Wanneroo Library.

  

GETTING TO KNOW YOU

Year 9 girls had the opportunity to chill out, chat and work on some crafty projects with the Year 11 and 12 girls. The senior girls will become mentors for the Year 9s over the course of the year.

WORDS OF WISDOM

Recently we welcomed back some of our Class of 2018 students! At the whole school assemblies, the new members of the 90s Club (top scoring ATAR students) passed on their advice to our current students, giving them a spark of inspiration as they begin to navigate another school year.

CAMBODIA CALLS

A group of our 2019 Year 12s and staff recently returned from just under two weeks on the St Stephen’s Global Cambodia tour where they worked with RAW Impact to build a new home for a local family of eight in need. The trip included lots of hard work, tree-planting, a sleep out, some interesting characters, heart-warming stories, visits to NGOs and historic places. Read more about their adventure here:

An Exciting Challenge

Our Year 9 students have travelled to camp under the stars at our Nanga site this Term. Through activities like hiking, a tree top high ropes course, river rafting, mountain bike riding and more, students were encouraged to challenge themselves as they become self-aware, responsible and resilient young adults.
