Eksath and Sarah's Inside Time Print E-mail

It was a great day today. Sure we were inside heaps but the weather wasn’t too great outside. My partner Sarah and I were student leaders today which I must admit was pretty fun. I love putting my hand up and having everybody else put theirs up and listen to you.

I had Thinking and Learning 3 in the morning. This is pretty much just about how we think and learn and the different ways. In the 3rd one of the series we learnt about how we learn and the different ways that we enjoy learning. It was completely mind-blowing and I learnt so much.

I found out I was an excellent drawer (I’m just kidding, but I do draw great stick figures) and that I use most of my brain except I don’t use the bottom left side which is about safety and planning.

We also talked about memory and how we use different techniques to revise.

Some people made stories which were really funny, some people even made songs. It was great to see left-brain people drawing exceptionally well and focusing on the lines not the bigger picture. It was a very educational and informative day which Sarah and I enjoyed very much.

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.
