Tim's Report on his Half Day Bike-Ride Print E-mail

Hi my name is Tim and I go to Bairnsdale Secondary College.

Today is day 31 and I’m going to be talking about the half day bike ride to Marlo I want on.
Yesterday I went on the half day bike ride to Marlo. We got ready straight after lunch and got our bikes and equipment. We had to get into pairs and ride in two lines and when a car came we would go into a single file line, my partner was Sarah. Majority of the way was on a nature track, winding between trees and bushes. It was a very cruisy bike ride; we weren’t going as fast as we could to get there in a hurry. We stopped a few times at lookouts and there were some really nice views of the ocean and a lot of good photos were taken. Once we got to Marlo we went and stopped at the playground for a break before we turned back.

Going back was easy knowing how far we had to go but most of it seemed to be up hill. When we got back at 4:20 we cleaned the bikes and went inside for afternoon tea, ICE-CREAM!! I had so much fun on the bike ride and now I can’t wait for the all-day bike ride.

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.
