SRC Journey Poem Print E-mail

Snowy River is really awesome, fun and cool
Despite what you may think, the food here makes us drool
There’s chooks, space, trees and laughs all around
It’s incredible to think of the friends we’ve already found
Amazing opportunities are ahead for us kids
We’re so busy we barely have time to close our eyelids
Surfing was great and I gave it a shot
There was this guy named Darren, he yelled a lot
Milo is the thing we most desire
If that was all gone we’d probably start a fire
The people here are so nice and funny
Bridge building made my nose all runny
We have learnt how to function well as a team
Trust is more important than it might seem
Mr. Brown likes to crack the odd joke
But most of the time they make us want to give him a poke
We have already begun to bond
Together we’ll reach the stars and beyond
Being student leader was lots of fun
It felt good to get all the jobs done
The time here is already started to fly
The thought of leaving makes we want to cry
Socks and thongs are the new trend
It saddens me to say that this is  the end

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.
