Photography

Our Year 12 student Liam Hindle won 1st place for his age group, Judges choice and Peoples choice at the DELWP Hume 2019 photography and video competition awards and presentation evening. 

Liam said, ‘‘ he had to try and think how to portray Solar Farming in a photo but still making it a beautiful photo to look at. I combined a light bulb, lit up by the sun with barbed wire (farming element) and that is how I produced the winning photo. I was happy with my final photo.’’

Liam will also have a photograph on display at this year’s Royal Melbourne Show

Thank you to Cobram Secondary College school community, friends and family for supporting Liam in the People's Choice category.   #EveryOpportunityTaken

Air Marshall Davies-Guest Speaker

A group of students, including our School Captains, are ready to listen to Air Marshal Davies, Chief of the Air Force. Air Marshal Davies is also a graduate of Cobram Secondary College. We are proud to call him a member of school community!

Royal Australian Air Force chief Air Marshal Leo Davies spoke to an audience of about 150 people at Cobram-Barooga Golf Club earlier this month.  The diverse audience, which included RAAF cadets, local school students and representatives from four RSL sub-branches, heard from Air Marshal Davies about the rapidly evolving nature of the Australian Defence Force and more specifically, the RAAF.

Air Marshal Davies said it was vital the defence form remained at the leading edge of innovations and hoped his story would inspire the next generation to achieve remarkable goals.

‘‘There were a number of cadets and high school folk here to make that message very valuable.

‘‘I was trying to give a very honest and clear picture of where the RAAF is today and where it is going in the future.’’  Air Marshal Davies grew up in Strathmerton, attending Cobram Secondary College (then known as Cobram High School).  He started flying in Tocumwal, riding a bike 30km each way to do so.

‘‘The fact he is from the area was a big draw card,’’ Cobram-Barooga RSL Sub-Branch president Rob Brown said.  ‘‘It was an excellent evening and it was fantastic to bring his story to the attention of the younger generation.  ‘‘Air Marshal Davies wants the best of the best to join the ADF and he wants everybody to know any trade or skill can be applied to the RAAF.’’
