Ash and Brayden - Student Leaders Print E-mail

Ash and Brayden's day as student leaders

Yesterday was definitely a fab day because my group 2B had Beliefs and Values then we worked on our passports.

It was one of those days when everyone got along really well and actually listened to each other and everyone contributed in class discussions. The class really made me think about all the things I believe in and all the things in my life that I should really value because so many people around the world aren’t as fortunate as I am.

During Passports everyone set off on their own and managed to do heaps of work and it was a really productive day. Brayden, who was student leader with me, is off on expo today and I hope he’s coping well and I wish him and the rest of 1A good luck with those heavy packs on their backs. Our community goal was to share responsibility equally whether it is with duties or in our expo groups. We got all the groups together to discuss what needed to be done to make sure everything is fair and it was really good that each group were actually opening up to one another and actually working out ways to make things fair.

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.
