Enviro Bike Ride Print E-mail

Term 3 - Enviro Bike Ride

On the 2nd of the September 2015 we went on a full day bike out to Cabbage Tree Creek. Starting our morning with high spirts and everyone all kitted up for the trek. We rode off the campus and started off with a good pace. Our whole expo team worked well together, helping and encouraging each other along the way when challenges were placed upon us. We took regular breaks and reminded each other to stay hydrated. We had lunch near a goat farm and also visited the Cabbage Tree Palms which had an astonishing view. The Cabbage Tree Palms had many diverse and unique plants which was intriguing. As student leaders we had the roles of leading the group and being the whip at the back. Artiles was the whip whilst Bethany was the leader. Near the end we felt like dying because the ride was so long. In total it was a 40km ride. Overall, even though it was fun the day itself was extremely tiring and we probably won’t want to do it again.

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.
