Welcome! Most people can’t find our school and Google occasionally incorrectly directs visitors to Dingee, but you’ve ‘virtually’ found us, so, congratulations! Ever driven from Bendigo to Pyramid Hill? Yes? Then you have likely driven past us. We are the school in the paddock, with irrigation channel on three sides, (look for the cow on the roof). 250 students are bussed in from rural areas such as Mitiamo, Dingee (not ‘dingy’), Calivil, Serpentine, Bridgewater, Raywood and other areas you’ve never heard of.
Our students are ‘proudly country’. If they had their way, uniform would include trucker hats, cowboy boots with bell music fit for a hoe down. We are in constant debate about which colour tractor is the best – Blue? Green? Red? All that said, we are far from ‘yokel’. Our students are hard working and successful. We are surrounded by a community of supportive and professional rural workers and primary producers, who a lot of our kids aspire to be. We think we are the best school in the world (seriously).

A Message
From the Principal
I feel incredibly fortunate to be the Principal of East Loddon P-12 College and I come to school each day with a great sense of pride and optimism. We are a small school in the middle of ‘cow-paddocks’ and we are also proud of that!
East Loddon has a terrific wider college community, a dedicated staff and great students! I love that new and visiting teachers comment favourably on the ‘feel’ of the college and it is always incredibly rewarding when we receive positive feedback from those who have hosted our students on camps, excursions and sports days.

Acknowledgement of Country
We would like to acknowledge and extend our appreciation for the Dja Dja Wurrung People, the Traditional Owners of the land that we are standing on today.
Today, we pay our respects to leaders and Elders past, present and future for they hold the memories, the traditions, the culture and the hopes of all Dja Dja Wurrung Peoples.
We express our gratitude in the sharing of this land, our sorrow for the personal, spiritual and cultural costs of that sharing and our hope that we may walk forward together in harmony and in the spirit of healing.
