Aidan and Jess describe their favourite experiences Print E-mail

This is Aidan and Jess and we are going tell you about what we’ve been doing at SRC.

At SRC we have been doing some very great things. Some of these include; surfing, caving, bridge building, canoeing and expo.

Aidan: My favourite experience so far has got to be Expo. I loved it because where I come from I don’t get to do a lot of camping or hiking and it was a very new experience for me. It was just great getting out with my mates and having a good time on the beach and through the bush. Everyone was really cooperative and helpful and everyone kept their chins up and gave it a good go.

Jess: My favourite thing I have done is surfing. I love the beach and the waves were amazing. I’m from the country and the closest beach is 3 hours away. I found surfing really easy. I managed to stand up on my first go. We learnt skills and safety about the beach. The weather has been really cold lately so the water was freezing but that didn’t stop us!

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.
