TIMBOON P-12 School Year 7-8 students showed they have a green thumb or two between them.
After a scoping session with members of the Power Creek Reserve Committee and an initial visit to inspect the site, the Year 7-8 community project students met with committee members, Peter Pope and Ray Smith, at the Power Creek Reserve in Timboon.
“Peter and Ray explained that they would like the students to take ownership of an area of the creek and develop some ideas to help community members make better use the space available,” TAP co-ordinator AndreaVallance said.
“The group discussed ideas including seating made of recycled materials, revegetation of the slope, a sandy beach section, stepping stones for access, a retaining wall, bird hides or boxes, a water fountain and historyinformation boards.
“The next stage of the project is to develop a plan and get costings for materials before submitting their more formalised ideas to the committee.”
