Bronson Valpied

Campus Principal

I have been a teacher for a number of years now, not only here in the south-west of Victoria, but also in Argentina and England. On a couple of occasions I have also taught English on a volunteer basis in Spain.

For the majority of my life I have also been exploring our world by trekking with a backpack, ranging from the most densely populated places to the uninhabited wilds of South American jungles and encountering the varied peoples from these places. My other passions are playing guitar, listening to music, reading, exercising or watching sport.

Human relationships and the opportunity to learn from those we meet is one of the aspects of life that I love the most and teaching in a residential setting creates the optimal scenario for this to occur. I am genuinely excited about being part of the community at Gnurad-Gundidj, as well as being involved in such an innovative and fun educational environment.

School For Student Leadership

School for Student Leadership is a Victorian Department of Education 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". The fourth and most recently opened campus is Don Valley Campus, situated on land that was once known as Haining Farm in the Yarra Ranges.

Our school community acknowledges the Gunaikurnai, Bidawel and Gundijmara people as the traditional custodians of the land upon which our school campuses are 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.
