Grant for creek

Pretty Beach Public School was recently successful in winning a $1500 Eco-Schools Grant.

The grant from the New South Wales Government came through the National Heritage Trust.

The grant is to be spent rehabilitating the creek line adjacent to the bush behind the Year 2 and Year 3 classrooms.

This restoration is part of the School Environment Management Plan's (SEMP) aim to increase wildlife habitat and biodiversity in this bushland area.

Weeding will take place first followed by planting activity for children to coincide with World Environment Day.

Parents, teachers and children from the school environment committee have already held meetings and commenced coordinating specific activities for the project.
