What we did on Day 20 Print E-mail

Today at Snowy River School for Student Leadership was packed full of interesting activities. In the morning our group 1b had CPR and it was really informative and hands on. What it taught us was a very important life skill. In that class we also covered first aid, snake bites, anaphylactic shock and asthma attacks. After lunch we went surfing which was a very enjoyable activity. We got a quick demo on the beach and after that we hit the water. After a couple of wipeouts we began to find our feet and gracefully rode knee high waves to the beach. That lesson went really quickly and we all enjoyed it.
That was what we did on day 20!

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.
