In recent days both Stacey and Cameron had canoeing.

"It was an awesome experience and we both enjoyed doing it with our expo groups. 
Cameron: My favourite part of the day was getting to swim after everyone had finished their lunch and having lunch right at the beach.
Stacey: I enjoyed paddling down the river, and watching everyone bump into things, it was just fun to get used to the canoes and work out how to turn around in circles doing ‘donuts’.

On February the 22nd we were both student leaders for the day, it sounded daunting standing up in front of everyone but it wasn’t. Our community goal was to remind everyone about needing to go to class about 10 minutes beforehand. It worked well in the morning but we forgot to keep reminding people in the afternoon. We look forward to being student leaders again."

School For Student Leadership

School for Student Leadership is a Victorian Department of Education and Training (DET) initiative offering a unique residential education experience for year nine students. The curriculum focuses on personal development and team learning projects sourced from students' home regions. There are four campuses in iconic locations across Victoria. The Alpine School Campus is located at Dinner Plain in the Victorian Alps. Snowy River Campus is near the mouth of the Snowy River at Marlo in east Gippsland. The third site is adjacent to Mount Noorat near Camperdown in Victoria’s Western District, and is called Gnurad-Gundidj. After consultation with the local aboriginal community, this name represents both the indigenous name of the local area and an interpretation of the statement "belonging to this place". Our fourth and newest campus, currently known as the Don Valley Campus is located at Don Valley, Yarra Ranges.

Our school community acknowledges the Gunaikurnai and Monero-Ngarigo people as the traditional custodians of the land upon which our school campus is built. We pay our respects to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, their Elders past and present, and especially whose children attend our school.
