National Tree Day

On Friday the 19th of July, Jordan Mai of the Fort St Environmental Committee travelled to Bunnings Ashfield to ask for tree donations for National Tree Day. National Tree Day was on the 25th of July and Fort Street once again participated by planting 16 native trees donated by Bunnings and using the mulch donated by the TAS faculty.

The trees were planted along the cross country route behind Rowe Quad, facing Parramatta Rd and Andreas St. The environmental Committee represented by Alyssa Koit, Jordan Mai, Genevieve Bivell, Tim Brew and Carlo Famularo spent their lunch planting and watering the trees in order to improve the sustainability of the school environment.

We would like to thank Ms Xu for managing the committee and Mr Caritt for advising us on where to plant our trees.
