Trafalgar High School, with a student enrolment of approximately 750, is situated in a pleasant environment between the Strzelecki Ranges and Mount Baw Baw. Located on a large, attractive site adjacent to Trafalgar Primary School, this unique rural setting nurtures a strong school identity based on wide community support, providing a stable, caring environment in which each individual attains a sense of identity and self worth. Many students travel to the school by bus or train from well beyond the local area.
Monday was International Day of Happiness and knowing that Pavlova 🍰 brings joy this group shared out slices of yumminess to the Year 7 sub-school team, the front office staff and Principal team. A slice made it to Wombat too!
The Year 11 and Year 12 Outdoor and Environmental Studies classes attended a three day surfing camp at Wilsons Promontory on 15th-17th March. On the first day, the classes went to Whiskey Bay to learn to surf. The waves were very good, enabling just about every student to stand up and catch some waves. Due to strong wind at Tidal River on the second day, the group needed to travel to Waratah Bay for their second surf lesson. The waves were pretty good, allowing students to consolidate their surfing technique. The Year 12 class had two Parks Victoria Ranger education sessions, enabling them to link theory learnt in class, to the Wilsons Promontory environment. On the final day, the group did the short hike up Mount Oberon. They were rewarded with spectacular views of Tidal River and the surrounding environment. Overall, it was a very successful trip, with students thoroughly enjoying it.
