Today we had Intro to LLP which was pretty good, gave us a chance to work in teams with people we don’t usually work with. Hayden worked with Lachlan M and Lachlan R and our topic was ‘Bikes’. Hope worked with Chelsey, Tara, and Zoe and their topic was ‘Dolphins’.

Doing LLP will teach us some leadership skills and teamwork skills which will help us in the future, we are really interested in LLP day, it should be good fun working with the Marlo primary school kids. We were both a bit shocked when Mr Gladstone said that the whole school was coming, but then when he said that there were only 27 students, and we both felt better after he said it.

After lunch, we had the half day bike ride, which was really good, our team was really supportive throughout the whole ride, which was good because our team sometimes isn’t too supportive, so it was a good change. About half way through the way up, we saw a really big black snake crossing the road, so we stopped for a bit until it left, then we started again. Today was a lot of fun.

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.
