This is a photo of 1a’s team of Doncaster and Camperdown‘s (Nick name Doncadown) completed bridge. We made a great start to our snowy river experience. We worked well as a team encouraging and supporting everybody throughout the day. We worked well as a team when we were doing the things like tying the knots for the tripods, frapping the pole to the tripod and even moving the tripod into the water. I was surprised how well we worked when we only knew each other for 4 days. We communicated better than we all expected. We made sure that everybody had a go and made sure that nobody was excluded.

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.
