My First Week at Snowy River Campus Print E-mail

Hi my name is Jack I am from Euroa Secondary College. I have enjoyed my first week here at the Snowy River Campus.

I have learnt new skills and met a lot of new people from around Victoria. I have completed bridge building which was very interesting and challenging for us to make a bridge as a team and launch it in the water’s edge at the Marlo Angling Club. I have also done GPS navigation which was very fun as we sent our partners on a wild goose chase. I have also just completed the intro to bikes which was really awesome to be able to jump on a bike and do some skills. Then after the teacher (Mr Gladstone) considered us to be good enough we entered zone three into the bush for a wild ride, which I really enjoyed as I like adventurous mountain bike riding.

Great experience at The Snowy River Campus!!!!!

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.
