See you there! 👋

We had a fantastic time celebrating Indigenous Week at our Shepparton campus!

We began the week with a Welcome to Country and Smoking Ceremony led by Nikky James from Yorta Yorta Nations. It was wonderful to also welcome Elders Aunty Kella Robinson and Aunty June Murray to campus for the occasion.

Following the ceremony, Tammy Atkinson from Maloga Studios officially launched her exhibition, which will be on display throughout August and September.

On Tuesday, we continued the celebrations with a weaving session led by Aunty Eva Ponting, along with scones served with native jams and Davidson plum powder.

It was a great week of culture, learning and sharing, and we’re grateful to everyone who joined us and helped make the celebrations so special.

Indigenous Week is here 🖤💛❤️

From 17–21 August, students and staff across La Trobe’s regional campuses are invited to come together to celebrate, recognise and engage with the cultures, knowledges and contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

Across the week, our community can take part in a range of events and activities, including Welcome to Country and Smoking Ceremonies, workshops, cultural activities, shared meals and more.

It’s an opportunity to connect with community, Country and culture, listen, learn and get involved.

We’re still thinking about Open Day 🤩

It was wonderful to welcome so many prospective students, families and supporters to our Shepparton Campus over the weekend.

There was a great energy across campus as visitors explored study options, met our staff and students, toured our facilities and discovered the opportunities available to study close to home in the Goulburn Valley.

It was also fantastic to have so many of our community partners join us on the day, including GOTAFE’s Pathways Hub, the Munarra Centre for Regional Excellence, Rumbalara Football Netball Club, the Murray Bushrangers, The Duke of Edinburgh's International Award and the The University of Melbourne. These partnerships are such an important part of what makes our campus and regional community special.

A huge thank you to everyone who came along, and to our staff, students, volunteers and community partners who helped make Shepparton Open Day 2026 such a success.

We were delighted to welcome Michael Traill AM, Founding CEO of Social Ventures Australia, to deliver the annual Fairley La Trobe Lecture at our Shepparton campus this week.

More than 70 people from across the region attended to hear Michael share his insights on the role of thoughtful philanthropy in building stronger regional communities and the barriers that can sometimes stand in the way.

The evening concluded with an engaging Q&A featuring Georgina Fairley, Chair of the Sir Andrew and Lady Fairley Foundation, sparking discussion about the future of philanthropy and community impact.
