Envirogroup working hard to clear invasive weed

Envirogroup working hard to clear invasive weed

A couple of years ago a school neighbour warned us about the Pampas grass infestation on Rosmini College property. Rosmini Envirogroup has tried to keep on top of it but the infestation of this invasive feathery spread very quickly. 

On Friday 12 May Envirogroup boys in Years 7-9 spent the day destroying as many of the plants as we could. We hope, over time, to get rid of them all and return the area to native bush.

The boys worked extremely hard all day, problem solving and working as a team to best tackle the huge sharp plants. 

We were very pleased with our progress, especially as we were missing our seniors.
