$2,500 for WESTDALE PUBLIC SCHOOL
Westdale Public School will benefit from a $2,500 environmental grant from the NSW Government’s 2011/12 Environmental Trust program, Member for Tamworth Kevin Anderson announced today.
“Westdale Public plan to use their grant to create a habitat garden to attract local wildlife.
“The school will plant an understorey for an existing corridor of trees as well as create a wetland area for frogs, fish and lizards and a paved access path for disabled students,” he said
This project is just one of over 80 projects to receive funds under the NSW Governments 2011/2012 Environment Trust program that supports increased sustainability in schools, further protection for important Aboriginal places and encourages innovative environmental research.
“Each year this important program highlights the innovative thinking taking place around the environment in NSW and this year has been no exception,” he said.
“These projects and the many others like them across New South Wales are making a real difference to local environments at the grass roots level,” he said.
The Environmental Trust is an independent statutory body established by the NSW government to fund a broad range of organisations to undertake projects that enhance the environment of NSW.
