Learning About My Thinking - On Campus Print E-mail

Today at Snowy I was student leader. My group stayed back while group two went off to do bridge building. We did thinking and learning in this class we learnt about the brain and how different sides do different things E.g. the left side is more analytical while the right side is more intuitive. We then did an activity to see which side of our brain was more dominant. In this activity we had to pick 24 statements from a page that we thought were most like us. Each statement referred to one quarter of the brain rational, experimental, safekeeping and feeling. My results were; the rational quarter was 5, the experimental quarter was 13, the safekeeping quarter was 2, and the feeling quarter was 1. This means that firstly I am more of a thinker than a doer and secondly that I tend to take more risks. This test may not be accurate but it was still interesting. We then started work on our passports by writing our life stories. The other thing we did was a community walk on one of the bike tracks through the bush. This was good because it was the first time I have been in zone 4.

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.
