For those who love true crime podcasts, intricate puzzles, and dark mysteries, 'Truly Devious' is the ultimate campus thriller. It follows a true-crime aficionado Stevie Bell as she begins her first year at an elite academy, determined to solve a cold-case kidnapping from the 1930s, only for a brand-new mystery to strike the school.

This clever, atmospheric novel is fantastic for sharpening critical analysis and deductive reasoning, keeping readers guessing until the very last page.

Come read it if you dare!

Our Year 6 Student Council meets regularly during the year and are working through the GLS Next Gen leadership program from the Global Leadership Network. They have been learning about servant leadership and exploring different ways they can serve our community.

Our Student Council created a shoe-shining station and spent their recess shining the shoes of younger students (and some staff too!)

During Week 2 of Term 3, the Year 5 students welcomed some very special visitors to help launch their Science unit on the structures and adaptations of living things. WestOz Wildlife brought along a range of Australian animals, allowing students to get up close with a surprisingly active koala, hold snakes (much to Mrs Ide’s horror), pat lizards, and spend some time in a darkened classroom observing a tiny sugar glider.

Many students fondly remembered a similar wildlife visit from their Kindy years and were noticeably braver this time around! With a few more years of learning behind them, students were also able to look more closely at the animals’ unique features and explore how these adaptations help them survive in the Australian environment. It was a wonderful hands-on experience filled with plenty of excitement, curiosity, and learning.

As we enter spring this week, we’re reminded that seasons continue to change, even when our own circumstances may not. For some, this may be a season of growth and new beginnings; for others, it may still feel like a time of waiting or difficulty. Whatever season we find ourselves in, we are reminded that each has its place and that God remains present through them all.

The Pioneer Village Primary School VEX IQ Competition was an incredible opportunity for our Harrisdale students to put their creative technology skills to use! During the event, we had four different teams competing head-to-head to see whose robotic creation was the most successful.

Having pioneered the growth of WA school robotics, we were thrilled to see others lead the way this time, a fantastic milestone that expands the local robotics community and gives our team fresh opportunities to learn and collaborate. Team 79420F, along with a team from Pioneer Village, were tournament champions, which is an incredible achievement, as this was some of our students first time attending a robotics event. Well done to everyone who participated!!

Altaria Fachry and Aurelia Fachry recently represented Western Australia at the Karate Australia National Championships, which were held at MyState Bank Arena in Hobart, Tasmania. The National Championships are Australia's premier karate competition, bringing together athletes from every state and territory to compete across 98 divisions in kata, kumite, para-karate, and team events. It serves as a key performance benchmark within Australia's national karate pathway.

Altaria Fachry received a Silver medal in the Female Kumite Cadet (Weight Division) and placed 5th in the Female Kata Cadet. Aurelia Fachry won a Silver medal in the Female Kumite Junior (Weight Division) and also received a Bronze medal in Team Kumite Cadet. We are very proud of the achievements these girls have made and cannot wait to see what else the future has in store for them.

Kids always bicker over shared space, and the siblings in 'How to Get Rid of a Princess' are no different. This book follows a hilariously frustrated older brother who tries absolutely everything to evict his sneaky, sly little sister (a princess) from his castle.

Packed with charming artwork and relatable family dynamics, it’s a beautifully light-hearted way to help young siblings laugh at their own daily friction and realise that, just maybe, having a brother or sister isn't the worst thing in the world after all.

Our Year 12 ATAR Music students have taken the stage at the Ellington Jazz Club, showcasing not only their incredible talent but also the dedication, creativity, and courage they've developed throughout their time at Carey. Naomi, Levi, Gabriel, and Alana stepped up to perform their final Music ATAR practical examination, in which they were marked on their musical composition, organisational skills, and ex*****on of their performance.

We couldn't be prouder of our Year 12s and all the hard work they poured into making these performances so memorable.

Our Year 12 Food Science classes had a special visit from the one and only Jaco Luies! Mr Luies taught our students how to make the famous Amatriciana pasta from scratch while indulging in truffle cheese and listening to music that set the tone in the kitchen. It was very encouraging to see all of our Year 12s so engaged in the lesson, learning valuable skills that are transferable to adult life, and making lasting memories with peers and staff. Let's give Mr Luies a big thank you for all the effort, time, and attention he has put into our Year 12s.
