As part of their transition into Year 3, Year 2s visited the Primary School this week, guided by some very helpful Year 9 students. After a play in the playground, students took part in French and Music lessons to become familiar with their surroundings before the move next year.
As part of their studies on clothing and fashion, Year 9 French students set up a très chic (very stylish) fashion show late last term, modelling their favourite outfits and describing them in French. The crowd, made up of Year 6 students, found the show very informative and entertaining!

Dear Parents & Guardians, The Student-Parent-Teacher Interviews for Year 7-9 students will be held on Monday 29 July. This is an opportunity for you to discuss your child’s progress with their teachers. Semester One reports will be published during the term break, and additional information and comments about specific assessment results are available throughout the year via your SEQTA Engage login. We encourage students to be present to participate in the interview. There will be two sessions: 7:30am – 11:30am and 2:00 – 7:00pm. Within these time frames, you will be able to book 10 minute interviews with each class teacher. The interviews will be held in the Glenda Parkin Learning Centre (Year 7 Building). Please note if for some reason a teacher is not available on the day their name will not be listed on the Bookings information, and you will receive an email from the teacher to organise an alternative time. To book your interview time please go to: www.ststephens.wa.edu.au. Then:
The booking system will close on Wednesday 24 July. If you have difficulty accessing the bookings, please contact the Helpdesk on 9243 2160. When bookings interviews, you are welcome to book with as few or as many teachers as you wish. A few teachers have so many classes they might be booked out. If this is the case and you wish to make an interview time, please email the teacher and let them know your available times for an in-person or telephone interview. My best wishes for a relaxing and refreshing term break. Warm regards
Liz Criddle Deputy Head of School – Teaching and Learning |
