Schools Tree Day

Friday 31 July was Schools Tree Day, an annual program run by Planet Ark right across Australia.  Due to the cancellation of public planting events, schools were encouraged to ‘hug a tree’ to raise awareness for our environment.  Our College community embraced this concept and really showed the Blue and Gold really does make Green.

 

Any day can be Tree Day, and there are many ways to support our community and celebrate nature. Planting trees and regenerating our natural areas helps us to regenerate and makes us feel better.  In your garden, this weekend, consider how you might contribute to our local wildlife… plant some bird-friendly native trees, plant a hoya vine, a favourite with butterflies or build an insect house.
