Alpine School for Student Leadership
The Alpine School Campus of the School for Student Leadership is a Victorian Department of Education and Early Childhood Development (DEECD) school specialising in leadership and personal development education for students in Year 9.
The school is situated at an altitude of 1600 metres near Dinner Plain Village in north eastern Victoria and offers a fully residential program for one school term with accommodation for up to 45 students in a purpose-built facility.
The Alpine School Campus accepts student leadership teams from schools selected from metropolitan and country regions each term. This will enable students from different backgrounds to share the experience and opportunities provided through the program. The program will develop student skills in leadership, enterprise education and team based learning using a community-learning model.
Templestowe College is a regular participant in the Alpine School program.
Long Tan Scholarship
The ADF Long Tan Leadership and Teamwork Awards started in 2006 and aim to recognise students who demonstrate leadership and teamwork within both the school and the broader local community. At the same time, they recognise those who display strong values, such as doing one's best, respect for others and "mateship”, that are integral to Australian society.
