Heading out on our First Expo Print E-mail

Heading out on our First Expo - JacobOn Thursday the 7th of May our group went on our first expo. The first day we walked 7 km along the beach which was really tiring but we eventually made it to our campsite. In the afternoon we played a game of fox holes down the beach we then watched the sunset on the lake. At night you could hear the waves while in our tent.

The next morning we woke up and packed up our tent and started our 8 km journey home. It was easier than the day before because it was all along a dirt road. We stopped again and played a game of food and water. We then came to the end of our trip. We had wraps for lunch while waiting for the buses. All up it was a really fun experience and I am looking forward to our next expo.

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.
