East Loddon became part of the La Trobe University School Partnerships Program (SPP) in 2017. This relationship with the university means that we can increase student understanding and exposure to what higher education is and how they can access it.

La Trobe representatives have worked closely with 7-10 staff to create a vibrant, personalised program. So far, this has included activities at the Bendigo campus and at East Loddon.

East Loddon has also partnered with La Trobe’s School Engagement and Recruitment Team to host seminars explaining more specific information to Year 11 and 12 students. La Trobe are also providing support for students to attend career and further education days such as the Tertiary Information Service (TIS).
