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!).
Carramar Cross Country Champs
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!
Happy Arts Day!

Captain Kirsten
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!
