Many hands make beach clean-up possible in Shelly Beach
Conservation efforts continue along the South Coast.
Some 35 volunteers rolled up their sleeves for a beach clean-up recently, with Creston College learners once again leading the charge.
The Bendigo Conservancy Group, together with the Rotary Club of Port Shepstone, coordinated the event, highlighting the ongoing conservation efforts in the area.
Twenty-four of the school’s learners were among those picking up litter along the shoreline near Shelly Beach, demonstrating impressive commitment to keeping the coast clean.
Also, the Bendigo Conservancy Group’s invasive alien plant removal saw only three soldiers arrive from Creston College, but the small group managed to clear a good section.
Event organiser, Dee Dickens said it was hot, tough and hard labour to dig out well-rooted roots. She also thanked everyone for showing up for the environment.
