Brisbane Water clean-up continues
Six students and four teachers from Brisbane Water Secondary College assisted in a clean-up of the Henderson Rd mangroves in Saratoga on Wednesday, September 9, as part of Gosford Council's Brisbane Water Foreshore program.
The group launched inflatable rubber boats from Lions Club Park with only small amounts of litter found as the group moved west towards the previous clean-up site near Henderson Rd.
The group loaded large piles of old oyster products into the boats and left a third pile of around 30 oyster trays for future pickup with a number of old tyres.
Fourteen bread baskets, eight old timber oyster trays, oyster plastic, foam boxes, two car tyres and eight bags of litter, together with plastic pipe, were among the items collected with 280kgs taken to Woy Woy tip.
