Yr 10 Duke of Edinburgh Voluntary Service + ECO Club + Friends of The Dell

The 2025 Year 10 Duke of Edinburgh classes have been busy completing voluntary service as a requirement of completing their Bronze Certificates. The class has been working in conjunction the VSC ECO club and the Friends of the Dell to complete maintenance and gardening works at Bellbird Dell Reserve and at Vermont Secondary College. 

Most recently students have planted 500 indigenous plants in the school grounds to liven up some recently mulched areas as part of the new gymnasium development. 

Our partnership with Bellbird Dell and Friends of the Dell now extends 10+ years. Some incredible statistics on the impact over the Duke of Ed classes over the last two year.
