Schools Tree Day!

Schools Tree Day at St Bernadette's Primary Lalor Park began with the Environment Team planting a Mary MacKillop Callistemon (Bottlebrush) in the school garden. The day became even more exciting when Natasha McLeod and Natasha Borg from the Catholic Education Office, Parramatta arrived with camera and microphone in hand, to film a short video!

The morning concluded with the Environment Team each receiving a tube stock Callistemon to take 

home and nurture ... they will be required to bring in a photo of their plant at the end of the year and the healthiest one, will win the competition!

Schools Tree Day!

Schools Tree Day was celebrated at Nano Cottage (St Michael's Primary Blacktown South) on Friday 29 July, by the planting of an olive tree to keep company with the one already established there! A new fence was constructed to ensure that the calves - Butterscotch and Nugget - are kept at a distance from the tasty leaves!
