Year 9 and 10 Outdoor Education

Year 9 and 10 students interested in Outdoor Education were given the opportunity to spend time with current Outdoor Education students from La Trobe University today as part of the School Partnerships Program.  Students heard about what studying Outdoor Education at university is like and learned about the different career options in the field post-study.  Students then participated in a nature diary activity which involved them drawing and providing information on something from nature, and participated in some team building activities to hone their teamwork and leadership skills, which are highly important in the outdoor education setting.  The students had a great time and enjoyed learning about this subject area.

East Loddon has received some new calves!

East Loddon has received some new calves! The Year 9’s have officially named the calves Paddington (‘Paddy’ or Pattie as some of the boys refer to him as – the golden-brown one) and Chuggington (‘Chuggy’ because he chugs his milk – the black one). Thank you to the Lawrys for donating the calves to the school!

Deb Ball next Friday!

Deb practice is in full swing in preparation for the biannual East Loddon debutante ball. The debutantes and their partners have been working frantically over the last term to get their dancing skills up to scratch. Thank you to the Hicks family and the Deb ball committee for their efforts in preparing the students. We can’t wait to see you all there on the 29th of March.
