Tips from Jake Print E-mail

Hi my name is Jake I just came back from expo the other day it was so fun we did heaps of walking but still had time for games.

The first tip I have for anyone reading this to try and get tips for when they come here is to make sure you actually bring your own sleeping bag because these ones are so hard to put in their carry bags and practice packing a lot of stuff in big bags because when you try and pack it you realise that you needed to pack important stuff at the top and the least useful stuff at the bottom. Second, you have to walk for a long time so make sure that you bring your hiking boots and a pair of thongs to play around on the beach with because your boots will get stinky and you need to air them because if you don’t then your room/ tent while smell so bad. That also stands for the wings when you get back, make sure you put your clothes straight into the wash and your boots outside so they can air themselves and so your rooms don’t have to sink any more than they already will. One last thing that is the most important thing, number 23 is the best number in the world!

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.
