Bea Brooks with a fellow recipient from the Newcastle Rowing Club who are erecting 8 bollards on Throsby Creek. They are shaped like people and painted with real person faces. Creative and innovative.
Marvellous breakfast with fellow Orica Community Investment Grant 2013 recipients. Mayfield East School is adding to their kitchen garden, including a greenhouse. They will have a look at the one on Ash Island when it is erected. Talked to them about support needed that RCNE could be involved with - TBA when they choose between a gazillion things. Sculpture on the Foreshore, swimming lessons for newly arrived African immigrants, mostly from inland Africa and therefore have no experience of ocean swimming or even how to swim, Fern Bay Public School art project, Stockton Surf Club getting new boards and other equipment for the Nippers, the Kooragang Volunteers propagating shed and green house; all great projects, dedicated volunteers, doing good stuff with the help of Orica KI. Walking back to the car their were two of the Merewether Landcare volunteers weeding. Carprobotus thriving and blooming, scaevola in full flower with small purple fans.
