Being Student Leaders - Abbey and Toby Print E-mail

Hi our names are Abbey and Toby and we are from Daylesford Secondary College and Edenhope College.

We were student leaders on Wednesday the 16th of October. Yesterday Toby’s group started off with Thinking and Learning 2 where they played a game of Zooley. Abbey’s group started off with Intro to ILP (Individual Learning Project) where we set goals for ourselves to achieve throughout our time here at Snowy.

In the afternoon Abbey’s group had Intro to CLP (Community Learning Project) which was really good as we made a lot of progress and can now see where our project is going. Toby’s group did Intro to Bikes which were fun and interesting as they all weren’t familiar with all the rules.

Yesterday at the start of the day we set personal goals. My personal goal was to express my opinions with my group. I could not achieve my personal goal as I had no need to express anything with my group. I (Abbey) set the goal to be more confident with public speaking. I believe that I achieved my goal and am quite proud that I did. Our community goal for the day was to get everyone outside to play a game after dinner unfortunately we were unable to achieve our community goal as time didn’t permit for us to do it.

Overall, we both had a great day being student leaders.

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.
