Friendship Print E-mail

Friendship is a word that is carelessly thrown around in modern day society, but the definition of friendship is “a person with whom one has a bond of mutual affection someone who is loyal and caring to a mutual extent.”

Friendship

The friends I have made here at the Snowy River Campus are real friends that I will keep forever. I have only known the people here for a little less than four weeks but the people here are so genuine and caring and are true friends. I find it easy to befriend people here as there is this common kindness and trust that everyone shares. At school there are groups and a popular ranking but I love how here at Snowy everyone is at the same level and there is no specific group and everyone is always approachable. The friendships I have made here are ones I plan to keep forever. We are only in week four and we are already planning road trips and visits for when the dreaded day of having to leave my new home of the Snowy River campus must arrive. Although I am already afraid of that horrid day I am rather appreciative that I have had the chance to meet such amazing people and form such long lasting friendships here.

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.
