Music students had a fun-filled weekend of rehearsing, performing and bonding over team-building games at Music Camp! The three-day residential camp, held at our Carramar campus, was an outstanding success, with lots of inspiration from alumni who returned to school to pass on their knowledge. On the final day, students relished the opportunity to perform in front of parents and friends. Well done to everyone involved!
ALL-ROUND ACHIEVEMENTS
As our community gathered for their first assemblies of the year, we recognised some outstanding academic performances and new leadership positions among our students.
Recipients of Academic Wreaths; Hannah Legge, Danielle Popich and Imogen Resta
Recipients of Academic Colours; Jessica Cruickshank, Claire Graham, Sophie Mitchell andJasleen Sandhu
Last year’s Year 12 students who achieved a score over 90 in their WACE/ATAR Exams and who are now part of St Stephen’s Alumni, also paid each campus a visit to celebrate their successes. These young men and women showed they are great role models for our younger students who are following in their footsteps.

Tough Mudders
Carramar Year 7 students recently enjoyed an awesome day of team building activities at the Swan Valley Adventure Centre. Fun was high on the agenda, as well as challenges requiring students to work together to develop their problem solving and communication skills. There is nothing quite like getting out of the classroom for a day of fun with classmates!
