Clarkson Community High School

Clarkson Community High School Clarkson Community High School is a proud Independent Public School with a focus on “high care, high expectations”. Leah Crawford, Principal

Our school community empowers students to build the confidence, values and skills as lifelong learners, to achieve their personal best for a successful future. High quality teaching, a positive and orderly learning environment, and family partnerships are critical to student success. We offer a caring and supporting environment that meets the learning needs and aspirations of our students, recogni

sing that success means different things for different students. We value and encourage student voice and support students to drive positive change within the school. As a Community High School, we highly value our connections with our local primary schools, and with the community more broadly, to ensure that our students experience a smooth transition into high school and a strong sense of connection to our school and to their community. We are driven by our shared values: Care, Optimism, Respect and Trust. As the Principal of Clarkson Community High School, I invite you to contact our dedicated staff to discuss how we can work together to ensure your child flourishes and achieves success. I acknowledge the traditional custodians of the lands on which we work, the Whadjuk Noongar people, and pay my respects to their Elders past, present, and emerging. I further acknowledge that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have nurtured and educated children on this land for thousands of years.

Families are reminded that Tuesday 2nd June is a Staff Development Day and the school will be closed to students.
Our staff will be coming together for professional learning and collaboration focused on improving outcomes for all students. These opportunities are an important part of ensuring we continue to provide high-quality teaching and learning across our school.
We hope our students enjoy an extended long weekend and look forward to welcoming everyone back refreshed on Wednesday 3rd June.

Clarkson Community High School is proudly “All In” for National Sorry Day.

On 26 May each year, we acknowledge the strength and resilience of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, especially members of the Stolen Generations who were forcibly removed from their families and communities.

Today, students and staff will come together in Kaartdijin Miya to create purple hibiscus flowers — the symbol of National Sorry Day. Chosen by the National Stolen Generations Alliance, the hibiscus represents compassion, healing, resilience and survival.

As part of our reflection, students will consider the question:
“How can we show respect for the Stolen Generations, not just on Sorry Day, but in the choices we make every day?”

As a school community we stand together in support of National Sorry Day and we continue to learn, listen and walk forward with understanding, compassion and respect.

Year 11 and 12 Visual Art students are currently exploring three-dimensional form, investigating both literal and metaphorical ways to represent ideas of self and aspects of identity. Through this process, students are showcasing their creativity while developing personal responses that reflect their individual perspectives, experiences, and ideas.

Today the Year 9 & 10 cohort attended the "One Moment: I Live My Life Without A Knife" presentation by Brett and Belinda Beasley from the Jack Beasley Foundation, who have partnered with the Joondalup District Police to deliver educational sessions across 20 local schools. Brett and Belinda shared their powerful and personal message, educating young people about the serious risks and consequences of carrying a knife in public, following the tragic death of their son, Jack, aged 17 in 2019 as the result of a knife related incident on the Gold Coast. Jack’s legacy has led to ‘Jack’s Law’, which provides WA Police with the authority to conduct edged weapon scans to detect those carrying knives in public. Students were engaged, captivated and genuinely moved by the presentation.
This initiative is a critical step in reducing knife related harm and empowering young people to make safer choices.
