Our Student Leader Experience!

Yesterday we were student leaders. At the start we were very nervous to get up in front of everyone. But as we got into it, it became very easy. It was interesting to see things from a teacher’s point of view and we now know how frustrating it is when no-one stops talking! Our community goal was to organise a big game of Bang to help everyone learn each other’s names. Everyone got into it and it was a lot of fun. Now everyone knows almost all the other people names! 

Josephine’s group had ILP (individual learning plan) in the morning. It was great setting goals because now we have something to aim for. In the afternoon we had CLP (community learning project) and we now know all the great things that we are going to do when we get back home.

Xan’s group had Thinking and Learning which helped them understand how it was important to have people that prefer different quadrants of the brain all working together. In the afternoon we had Beliefs and Values which was about respecting others and their beliefs and values.

We really enjoyed being student leaders!!!

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.
