Good work in clearing rubbish

Congratulations to the students and teachers from Brisbane Water Secondary College, along with Mr Funnel, for the wonderful undertaking in clearing rubbish from the Koolewong foreshore on July 26.

You can be justifiably proud of the time and effort you all put in.

Sadly, we realise there will always be a need for community-minded folks like you to contribute to these tasks.

If you ever consider doing more of this, could we suggest the corner of Brisbane Water at Tascott railway station.

Over the past years, there has been quite a build-up of the regular plastic debris plus a dozen or more baskets washed in from oyster leases.

We sent a letter and photos to both the Maritime Department and the Council three months ago with no action on their parts so far.

We had cleared this corner ourselves a few times 10 or so years back, but it is well beyond us now.

Keep up the good work.
