1A's Busy Time Print E-mail

Today we had busy time and 1A students helped out with sanding and lacquering the outdoor picnic benches, helped chop up one of the fallen trees near zone 3 or helped create a volleyball court next to the existing basketball court. Giving back to the school we’ve lived in for 6 weeks felt good and we all enjoyed ourselves whilst we did it. Students helped cut up an old sewage pipe and dig holes on the oval to put them in. This along with the concrete mixture also mixed by the students, will help hold up the net when the grass court is complete.

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.
