Memorial Trees
TREES PLANTED
Twenty five trees have been planted in memory of Ken McMaster, father of Rob McMaster (G.J. Gardner Homes, Ballarat). The trees were planted at Glenvale Christian School Primary School. They were very well received by staff, parents and students of the school community.
It’s now a pleasing sight to see all these tree guards protecting little trees dotted around the school grounds! Looking forward to the day when I can compare photos from today, to photos of when students are sitting under them (or climbing them!) and enjoying their shade! Letty de Kroon | Glenvale Christian Primary SchoolThe trees (25) for Glenvale PS were organised by Mr Ross Morley, Managing Director of G. J. Gardner Homes (Vic/Tas). Ross, Elaine and the team send their heart felt condolences to Rob on the loss of his father. Slainte – Colleen

‘Sometimes there are really simple things everyone can do to reduce their carbon footprint. When staying at a hotel, choosing to skip the room cleaning and having a tree planted instead, is one of those things’. Hugo from Hotels for Trees.

‘We’re thrilled to team up with Fifteen Trees in this crucial effort. Koalas are an iconic Australian species, and with increasing threats to their natural environment, it’s never been more important to ensure they have access to suitable habitats.Planting these trees is just the beginning of a broader initiative to safeguard their future’.

According to Sustainability Victoria, the average Australian lifestyle produces 15,000kg of carbon per year. If that sounds like a lot, it is! Over its lifetime, a tree can collect and store 268kg. This means, we each need to plant 58 trees per year to bring our individual carbon production down to zero. A little tricky for most of us to do in our own backyards, and this is where ‘A Subscription for the Planet’ comes in.
