Yesterday on May 12th  2014 term 2, I was student leader with Jacob. My personal goal was to talk to some more people because I don’t often just walk up to someone and start a conversation and I’m also not that good at keeping a conversation going. I don’t think I went too good at that because  I don’t just start talking to people. I spend a lot of time thinking about stuff in my head not talking to other people. The community goal was to pay full attention to the student leaders or whoever is talking up the front. I don’t think that went as good as it could have but I think it went better than normal anyway.

In the morning yesterday we did Peer Skills 3 and then Intro to Bikes in the afternoon. Peer skills was good, we talk about conflict and how to deal with it and the intro to bikes we learnt how to use the gears on the bikes and all that type of stuff.

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.
