Tree Planting

During the first week of Term 3, a group of students from Loreto College had the chance to visit Miners Rest Reserve to plant various types of trees. We collaborated with the City of Ballarat and students from St Patrick’s College to assist in planting these trees as part of the initiative to achieve 40% green coverage in Ballarat by 2040. We planted different species of trees to enhance biodiversity in the area, creating new habitats for wildlife and contributing to cleaner air. It was an amazing day filled with positive changes, and it was inspiring to see so many students participating and making a difference in the sustainability of the Ballarat community.
