LLP Day Print E-mail

Today started off with lots of last minute decorating and fun, we had spent last night decorating as our evening class. The kids from Newmerella Primary School arrived at around ten o’clock and split into the four groups Seahorses, Dolphins, Octopus and Whales. My group was Whales; we had five kids in our group.

We started off giving everyone a tour of the campus, starting in our wings right through to Grandma. After, we had a snack of coconut slice or rocky road. The first class of the day for the Whales was Nia’s, Sophie’s and mine, Watching Whales. We had a PowerPoint and some outdoor and indoor activities. We then went straight to farming with Jarrod, Corey, Blake and Brody. We watched another PowerPoint, filled in some questions and guessed where different products came from.

Next was a lunch of sausage rolls and salad, then of course going and playing outside. Our last class was Bushfires with Meghan, Charly and Tayla. We started off with a PowerPoint, some questions and a fun activity about saving photos in a bushfire. After all this we went outside and played cat and mouse and scarecrow tiggy. The LLP Day was a really great day for the kids and us.

LLP Day

LLP Day- LLP (Local Learning Project) Day was on Wednesday the 20th of May. The day involved 20 or so grade 5/6 students from our local primary school coming to SRC for the day, we had previously organised 12 workshops, ranging from sea life to the indigenous arts. The day went smoothly with the kids having fun and enjoying our workshops. The students at Snowy River Campus did an excellent job at running their workshops and activities. All together the day was amazingly run by our very own LLP committee, where both of us were the days MC’s and 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.
