Last week students attended the ‘Beyond the Classroom’ workshop with The Salvation Army.
In Western Australia, schools have the ability to engage directly with staff and clients of The Salvation Army allowing them to gain a greater understanding of issues facing thousands of Australians every day.
Students learnt all about breaking the cycle of poverty and helping those living rough in Perth.
Did you know 100,000 Australians will be homeless tonight?
Recently across from the school grounds, a parked Gray Toyota Rav, was damaged by the tow bar of a large vehicle.
At school pick-up and drop-off times Doveridge Drive becomes congested and we would like to take this opportunity to remind Year 12 students and families to be courteous and considerate when driving and parking. In the event of an accident happening please leave your details (name and contact number) on the windscreen of the damaged vehicle.
St Stephen’s School is committed to ensuring the safety of our students is maximised and that all members of our community work toward a safer environment.
Students and staff relax in the perfect weather on the quad while enjoying the warmth and precision of a musical ensemble.
Past Student Benjamin Jeyabalan and his band ‘Young Amity’ performed for our students during lunchtime. Ben met his band members during his leavers break to Ningaloo and they quickly formed a connection.
Students enjoyed the opportunity to listen to some relaxed and upbeat songs.
Many thanks to Ben and Young Amity for showcasing excellence in the Arts at St. Stephen’s School
What a magnificent end to the week!
The group made it back to Geraldton yesterday evening after what was one of the most amazing days their Skipper had ever had on the islands and he’s been working there his whole life!
The weather has been absolutely perfect and they were spoilt with the variety of incredible encounters – seals, dolphins, whales to name a few!
Yesterday’s incredible sunset from Rat Island.
The group were surrounded by a pod of what must have been hundreds of false killer whales on the journey between islands this afternoon.
All students are now safe and sound back on dry land!

Advice for students planning a Career Expo visit.
Stephen Kernutt
Careers Advisor
The students are having a wonderful time and have been doing really well to complete their practical skills in confined water before we hit the big blue tomorrow.
We really impressed with them all!
Lauren and Maddy instantly loved breathing through their regulators even though they were still on land!
The HMAS Sydney Memorial was really interesting to visit before we watched the full story in 3D at the maritime museum today. Also made a nice spot for the sunset.
All students did a great job smashing through a lot of practical work in the pool today – it’s exhausting stuff and they will be asleep early tonight!
Fingers crossed the weather doesn’t change over night – we are optimistic there’ll be a lot less vomit on our next crossing!
