Write your family name into College history

A Growing Legacy

Last Friday, primary school students – supervised by a group of older boys – planted the Blueberry Ash seedlings that will grow up to be our very own Ash Grove.

The Blueberry Ash is a native tree that is endemic to our region. The 100 trees that will be planted in total are part of our commitment to protecting and enhancing the green space that is so characteristic of our beautiful campus.

Our exciting Master Plan has been structured to protect existing trees, replace those we can’t save, and increase the environmental value of the campus by planting additional native trees and shrubs.

We’re asking families to support our Master Plan by donating to the A Growing Legacy appeal and writing their family name into Marist College Ashgrove history.

Donors will be acknowledged on two honour boards on campus.

The College is hugely grateful to those families who have already contributed to enhancing our campus in this way – your generosity is much appreciated.

Special thanks to our volunteer planters:
