Going Live

March 26, 2018

LIVE IN 3… 2… 1…
Our Year 10-12 Media students from Carramar and Duncraig took a trip to the newsroom recently, getting an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at Channel 9 studios. As well as seeing how the magic happens behind the camera, students took turns reading the news in front of it too!

Take a look at their awesome experience.

Young Leaders

March 24, 2018

Kicking off a new initiative student leaders from the ELC, Primary and Secondary schools came together for the inaugural Student Leadership Forum yesterday. Whether they are in their early years at St Stephen’s or beginning their graduating year, students were able to share and discuss their opinions and hear personal insights on what it means to be a leader. The Forum wouldn’t be complete without a delicious lunch of course, which was cooked and served by the Year 11 Hospitality students.

Rats Ahoy!

This afternoon the Y11 ATAR Biology class investigated all the systems by rat dissection! Students could fully investigate all systems by identifying all the parts and discussing their functions. They even made a time lapse to show the full procedure! Pretty cool!
