Mature trees at Mt Clear PS (Vic).

TREES PLANTED

Maree and Brian Harrison from Harrison Funerals (Ballarat) support our local community in many ways, one of which is to  provide mature trees to schools and public areas in the district. Over the course of our 4 year partnership, the Harrisons have provided over 150 mature trees to places such as Learmonth Community Gardens, Villa Maria PS, Mt Clear College, Ross Creek PS, the Garibaldi Reserve and now Mt Clear Primary School. That is a huge number of trees – thank you Maree and Brian.DSCF0649On National Tree Day for Schools (Friday July 25th), students at Mt Clear PS planted out 10 mature trees. They were assisted by parents and grandparents. The day was organised by the fabulous Cynthia Davidson and her Environmental Team (made up of students from across the school).DSCF0634More of Harrison’s trees to come – over the next few weeks we are planting at Villa Maria, Ballarat Specialist School and Mt Clear College.If your school would like mature trees, please contact me at <[email protected]>Slainte – Colleen

There’s something quietly powerful about a person who decides, on their own, to do something good for the planet. No fanfare, no corporate mandate – just a simple choice to put a few trees in the ground. When hundreds of individuals make that same choice, something remarkable happens. Native forests are restored, wildlife corridors are rebuilt, and community groups across Australia get to do the work they love. So if you’ve ever purchased trees through Fifteen Trees, thank you.

‘Tree planting is about far more than restoring the landscape, it’s about bringing people together to care for the places we all value. Thank you for your generous support for the farmers, students, volunteers and conservation partners who are helping create healthier habitat for Tasmania’s unique wildlife while inspiring the next generation of environmental stewards’.
