Local Learning Day with Hazelwood Primary School Print E-mail

Hi,
My name is Sophie and I go to Rosebud Secondary College. This experience at Snowy River has been the greatest experience of my life. We do activities I would never have thought about doing at home and have always dreamed of doing.

Room Decoration for LLP Day with Hazelwood PS

Today we had 12 grade 6 students from Hazelwood Primary School come in to be taught by the students here at Snowy. We decorated the rooms with a native Australian animal theme so we drew a river with chalk along the entrance of the building and had gum tree branches scattered around the room with animals hiding in them. It honestly looked amazing. We all had classes organised that ran for 20 minutes each. Our job was to engage the kids in some fun, yet informative way. It might sound easy but after we did all our preparation then practice of our presentations, it became a more complicated job. My group consisted of Sophie, Harry, Conor and I and our class was based around Surf Life Saving. We taught them about rips, first aid, CPR and other dangers such as drowning and sharks. The hardest part I found would’ve been keeping them engaged.

I’ve loved my time here and I’m looking forward to the next few weeks.

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.
