Ecocore & VU Community Tree Planting

 On the 31st of July, several Ecocore members were invited to attend a tree planting session over at VU, on behalf of their annual Community Tree Planting Day. This initiative, run alongside the More Trees for a Cooler, Greener West program, was a major success, bringing together avid students, staff and local volunteers to contribute to a wonderful cause.

According to the VU website, more than 350 volunteers joined on this day, having planted 2,500 trees in total. This event also marks the 500,000th tree planted since the program first began, highlighting a huge milestone for all.

We thank all of the students who participated on this special occasion, as well as VU for generously hosting us. A feature of our school can be found on their page—including wise words from our magnificent teacher in charge, Mr. Drummond!
