Yoga and POL Fun Print E-mail
Nicholas and Lucy

On the 6th of September, I had Passports then yoga. Most of us have completed most of our criteria’s and are moving on to pictures. In the afternoon we had yoga. First we do some yoga poses and stretched all our limbs which made us more connected and aware of our body. I really enjoyed yoga and it is something I would like to do again. Then we did a relaxation activity, it kind of put you in the space just before sleep it was really relaxing and a good experience.

On the same day, 1A and 1B had POL, which stands for Presentation of Learning. There were many diverse presentations which talked about all that everyone had learnt and they had quite a bit of content. One person presented theirs through painting, another through a metaphorical story and others talked. It was good to see all that everyone had done and there has been a big contrast for some people compared to how they were when they first came here compared to now and all that they have learnt. We’ve all learnt different skills and knowledge and it has been a great experience.

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.
