FOUR Bellarine primary schools have been lucky enough to secure state government funding further facilitating their love and care of the local environment and wildlife.<\/p>\n

Bellarine MP Alison Marchant congratulated the primary schools, named as part of the Victorian Junior Landcare and Biodiversity Grants program.<\/p>\n

Our Lady Star of the Sea Catholic Primary School is receiving $4,994 to help fund their ‘Hands up for Biodiversity’ project: appreciating nature through art; planting and building habitats; observing and caring.<\/p>\n

Leopold Primary School was granted $4,810 for their ‘Land, Sea and Me’ project.<\/p>\n

Queenscliff Primary School will receive $5,000 funding for their ‘Native Indigenous and Biodiversity Garden’ project.<\/p>\n

St Leonards Primary School was granted $4,470 for their ‘Land, Sea and Me 2.0’ project.<\/p>\n

“These innovative projects showcase the important role our young people play in the Bellarine in protecting local native wildlife and plants into the future \u2013 not only shaping a cleaner, greener and thriving future for our community, but for all Victorians,” Ms Marchant said.<\/p>\n

The Victorian Junior Landcare and Biodiversity Grants program has awarded financial assistance to more than 103 childcare centres, kindergartens, schools, Scouts, Guides and youth groups.<\/p>\n

The Victorian Landcare Program is part of the Labor Government’s mission to combat the decline of the state’s native plants and animals.<\/p>\n
