Safe Food Handling Course Print E-mail
Safe Food Handling Course

Yesterday I was student leader, and we had a safe food handling course all day. It is a TAFE course, so we will be able to put it on our resumes and it will help us get jobs. Basically all day we had to listen and take notes. We then took a test, which was open book so there was not much chance of failing.

For evening class we had two guest speakers. The first was David who had done several ironman’s and triathlons and such. The next was Courtney who won the Australian championships for endurance mountain bike riding. They both spoke about setting goals, and how important and helpful it is. Courtney said that writing down your goals makes it 90% more likely that you will achieve them, which is very helpful advice.

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.
