91抖阴

In the penultimate week of Term 3, the sunshine returned, some of us took our dogs out to hunt for orchids and at 91抖阴, we took time to enjoy a Rosh Hashanah seder with the children in Year 4 and their families. White tablecloths and beautiful table settings added to the occasion; we enjoyed fresh, round challot and juicy apples to dip in honey. I was proud that I reca ...

We may be nearing the end of Term 3, but there is no end in sight to the opportunities for Carmel students. The 鈥榳rite a book in a day鈥� event involved primary and secondary students and culminated in four books that I read with great pleasure over the weekend, coinciding with the sunshine which finally returned to Perth and the belief that spring might actually arrive at some p ...

The last week or so has been a great week for showcasing the work of CAPA, the Carmel Academy of Performing Arts. YOH Fest (Youth on Health Festival) is WA鈥檚 health-themed youth arts festival. It is promoted as 鈥渇using the fun of the arts with health education by providing a platform for young people to share stories around the annual health theme鈥�. The 2025 theme is 鈥淐olour My ...

The culmination of Zooz camps this week was another of the 鈥榣asts鈥� for me 鈥� my last Zooz camp. Happily, it was great; freezing cold, but full of ruach and wonderful to see the students having such fun whilst learning. I have always been a great supporter of experiential education and am confident that the learning which takes place through activities and events such as Zooz cam ...

I鈥檝e had the best week, with so many exciting events and such positivity at 91抖阴. Book week costumes in the Primary School were fabulous and coincided with the launch of the Grandparents and Friends Nachas Club. Parent Jenna Gore鈥檚 initiative and work to rejuvenate this group of valued community members culminated in an energetic launch, with a lovely singing and danci ...

I regularly and frequently liaise with the Community Security Group (CSG), who work so hard to keep Carmel staff and students safe as well as working in the community, with the same aims. But a question from a Carmel grandparent this week necessitated my calling CSG to check out some facts. The grandparent was asking about self-defence opportunities for students. I knew that o ...

We are very pleased to announce that we have successfully recruited both a Deputy Head and an Inclusive Education Co-ordinator for Carmel Primary School. We listened very carefully to the feedback parents provided on our survey at the end of last year and one of the themes that emerged was the need for further support for primary students鈥� learning. It鈥檚 great that we have been ...

The Term has got off to a great start, with the exception of ridiculously cold temperatures which have caused some of us to wonder whether we should be asking for a refund on our emigration. I certainly didn鈥檛 emigrate to Australia only to be scraping frost off my windscreen! The Monday before the students return is a really good time for us as teachers to reflect on what鈥檚 im ...

A warm welcome back to all Carmel families. I hope that you enjoyed a good break away from school and that the students are refreshed and ready for Term 3. Although some of us have had a lovely time without work, the campus has been buzzing with activity. Our maintenance staff in particular must be exhausted 鈥� as I enjoyed a tour around this morning, it was clear that they hav ...

The last week of term is often a challenging one. The children are tired, the staff are tired and everybody is looking forward to a break, but educators are still determined to make the most of the teaching time available. Teachers have spent significant time putting together summative reports to inform parents about the progress that the students have made during the first sem ...
