Every year I take the time to meet with our Year 12 students before they finish their time at Carmel鈥 hopefully they never say farewell to their Carmel family. I ask them to reflect on their years at the School; the highlights and lowlights of their Carmel experience. The students tell me about the teachers who have made a positive impact on their educational journeys and we di ...

There is Only Team Carmel
Over Shavuot, I had the opportunity to visit my family in Melbourne. As always, there was much talk about schools; which Jewish school was doing best at what, which Jewish school was best aligned to individual needs and religious outlook.

It is an expectation (but not an acceptable one) that when you put a group of young people together all day for many weeks of the year while they are dealing with major life changes like puberty, unkind behaviour will occur. Recently, there have been questions raised regarding how we here at Carmel ex ...
Freedom and Togetherness Through the Lens of Pesach
One of the best parts of my job is interviewing students after their Bar or Bat Mitzvah, which is then written up and put on our Facebook feed and added right here, to Kesher.

Freedom, Unity and the Collective Good
As our students stood to sing the Australian anthem on the first (on campus) day of school, they sang the recently amended lyrics 鈥渨e are 鈥榦ne and free.鈥欌 This change of words away from 鈥榶oung and free鈥 was made to recognise that Australia did not magically begin in 1788 when the white man landed in Botany Bay, but rather we are a country that has been inhabited for 65,000 year ...
