Local Learning Project with Orbost PS Print E-mail

Today was LLP day. LLP (Local Learning Project) is where all the students are grouped into 3 or 4 and make a project that you later on present to a group of primary school kids. You were given a selection of topics, some of them were bush tucker, surfing safety, indigenous culture, marine life and health and fitness. Today the Orbost Primary School’s year 5’s and 6’s came and took part in our projects. It was an interesting day to be student leaders since we had to be the leaders not only of our peers but also the kids as well. The kids seem to have enjoyed themselves and gave some great feedback about how we went. Towards the end Jin and Cam entertained the kids by demonstrating a few “magnificent, fabulous, awesome” magic tricks! Needless to say they were pretty shocked (in a good way!)

In the evening we had a guest speaker come in called David Tatnall. David is a very talented, Victorian photographer. He showed us some of his work and gave us some advice about how to use lighting in photos. Over the next couple of days we’ll be having classes with him using the SLR cameras that the school owns. Hopefully we’ll get some good shots!

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.
