Visit from Sustainability Victoria

We are very lucky to be hosting a team from Sustainability Victoria next week! 

The team will consist of 6 members: Debbie, Dominique, Romina, Robyn, Emily and Meg.

 Their visit is a part of our process to achieve our FIFTH and LAST STAR! ⭐ 

We are very excited - and proud - to share all the wonderful things we are doing here at Epsom. Our Eco Warriors and Green Magpie students will also be part of this visit. If you are around next Tuesday, be sure to say 'Hi!' and introduce yourself to our special visitors. 

Our NEW Hats! 

Following the fundraising from our stall at the Bendigo Sustainability Festival, the Green Maggies made a list of things they would like to spend the funds on. The eventual winning idea was....new GREEN hats! We have a selection of Bunnings Hats for our Greenies, but with our numbers growing each year, we needed another hat supply.

 

So after much planning and decision making on which colour green, which logo, which company, how many and various other micro decisions for the Teacher Green Magpies...

.....drum roll please......

here are our NEW HATS!!!!

Mother's Day Planting 

We also helped out with some flowers that were donated to sell at the Mother's Day stall. We all chipped in to repot these gorgeous flowers and we think they'll be a big hit for all our Mums!
