Media statement on behalf of Spotswood College

8 August 2012

Firstly our thoughts are with all the families involved in this situation.

We are working very closely with the Police and Search and Rescue.

We have established that there are two students and one instructor unaccounted for.

Thankfully the students rescued are not seriously injured, and ask the media to respect their privacy at this difficult time.

We are doing everything we can to support the families.

For more information please call
