On a cold, wet, wintry Tuesday, the Unit 1 Geography class braved the elements to investigate the environmental plague/invasive species known as BONESEED in the You Yangs.

After an informative talk by Jacob Champion, the Park Ranger and some gathering of data we set about to do our bit to eradicate this scourge in at least one small area of this popular recreational region that is also home to many native species. Pulling boneseed is hard work but we had fun doing it and are very proud of the difference we made to that environment, even though the boys were attacked by a possum in the bathroom!

If you want to learn about and make a positive environmental change consider VCE Geography as a subject in the future.
