We are a team of students from Year 1 to Year 6 who are passionate about protecting our environment. Our primary responsibility is caring for the school's wetlands. This year we are also developing new butterfly and bee gardens in the school grounds and participating in other local and national projects. Please comment in support of our efforts and projects.

Splitting native grasses with Jacque
On the 22nd September Jacque Knight came to show us how to split native grasses. Jacque is an Enviroschools facilitator, who grows many rare species of native plants and trees. She has kindly donated the grasses for us to plant around our wetland.
We are so lucky that Jacque has given us the special wetland grasses, including carex virgata, a special sedge that grows around wetland margins. This will help keep the introduced weeds at bay and give our ducks somewhere comfy to nest in the future.
