Gnurad Gundidj is pleased to welcome its student cohort for the term 3 School for Student Leadership program. Arrival day saw a range of emotions and feelings being displayed from: "isn't it time to go home mum?" to ""what are we doing tonight?" - what a positive way to start the term. After students were acquainted with their surroundings, we embarked on developing meaningful peer and staff relationships through dialogue and a variety of fun and adventurous activities. Our Campus Principal, Michael Castersen, had the honour of sharing the students' first evening and it was on this night that the student learning experiences began in earnest. A significant and most relevant aspect of our program is allowing the student time to reflect. Mr Castersen introduced the students to the concept of "Drop Everything and Reflect" (DEAR). This is a significant quiet time of the late afternoon/early evening where students employ a newly learnt wide range of reflection tools to assist them in this most worthwhile daily activity.

Students have "had a ball" role playing afflictions such as food poisoning, "unsafe" food handling practices, fractured limbs and snake bites. Week four will see the final preparations and planning going towards the students' first expedition. They will bike tour and camp near the magical Lake Keilambete, cook a community meal in a camp oven and share stories!. This "expo" will be a more concrete opportunity to enhance, explore and elaborate on their leadership skills - they return very pleased with their achievements.
