Halloween Market

Yesterday was Halloween and for our evening class we had the Snow River Halloween Markets. We decorated the room with Halloween signs, streamers and some people dressed up as well.
Everyone went in groups of 3-5 and came up with a stall. There was face painting, photo booth, popcorn + marshmallows, pet rocks, pancakes, fortune telling, apple bobbing, a lolly stall, sponge throw and poker/card games. We were given $50 each (fake money of course) at the start of the night and whichever stall had the most money at the end was the winner.

Ruby: I was working on face painting with Amy, Shannon and Chloe. We had such an amazing time making people look really funny. I loved the different kind of stalls that were there that night. Everybody put a lot of effort into each stall so over all the night was unforgettable. Student leader during the day was better than my first time because people paid more attention and I knew everyone more than I did in the first week

Sam: Being the DJ was fun. My favourite stall was the pancakes. I visited that stall about 5 times! The night was fantastic. Student leader is a great opportunity to boost your confidence and lead the students for a day.

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.
