Raring and ready to get to work, a group of Year 12 students and staff have travelled to Cambodia these holidays, joining RAW Impact to build an entire bamboo house in a local village. The group have been fully immersed in the Cambodian culture, working alongside Khmer locals to make lasting change.
Over the holidays, Year 12 students and three staff from Carramar and Duncraig volunteered their time on the St Stephen’s Global Cambodia Tour. As a result of their hard work, a Cambodian family who were living in a small unsafe house now has a new home. Read more about the tour in the Joondalup Times.
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.

Our St Stephen’s Global Year 12 Cambodia Service Tour departs on 6 January for a two week experience working with Raw Impact in their aid and development program in Cambodian villages.
18 students have worked very hard fund-raising and learning about Cambodian culture. The group have been superbly prepared by Mrs. Libbis, Ms. Shanks and Mr. Taylor who will accompany them on tour.
We pray for an amazing life-changing experience and for safety for all.
