National Tree Planting Day 2018
National Tree Planting 2018 was amazing! And we didn't even have to water in those plants!!!
Many thanks to Axe Creek Landcare Group for organising, Bendigo Toyota for the tops gloves and the fantastic sausage sizzle to Kat & Rob for having us and to Panda for his leadership.
Also many thanks to every single volunteer who planted, guarded and put their fingers in peril .....the kids did love the hammering!
The rain just made it more memorable....and it demonstrated Eppalock Primary School's dedication to the idea that there's no such thing as bad weather....just inappropriate clothing!
