Nia's Snowy River Experience Print E-mail

Snowy River Experience

This weekend is parent visiting weekend which marks our halfway point of the Snowy experience. I am a in a mix of emotions about that as I am very excited to see my family, but, that means that I only have 5 more weeks of living here, which isn’t a happy thought. Between us students, we have already begun thinking of places that we are going to meet up at once the experience is over. We have come up with a range of ideas spreading from birthday parties to paintballing in Mount Gambier. Next week I go caving which I am soo excited for, I also have surfing and photography. Next week is going to be great and although we’re already half way, I cannot wait for the next 5 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.
