Our regular 2nd Friday of the month w**ding session is coming up this Friday 9-11 am. We'll be in the bushland opposite Environment House. All are welcome to come along and enjoy the bush and help reduce the w**d load to give the smaller plants and germinating seedlings a chance to survive.

Weeding session at the wetlands this Friday 24 July 9-11am, replacing the normal 4th Sunday of the month session. All are welcome to come down and have a look at the revegetation progress, and help the bush regenerate naturally by removing w**ds and allowing the local plants to thrive.

Lovely day today with over 1000 local natives planted in the previously lawned area at the end of King William Street. Now just need some rain to water them in.

A planting session is organised in the Wetlands for this Saturday 11 July 9-12 am. All are welcome, so please come along and bring your family and friends. There is also a free tree giveaway by the City of Bayswater, so there'll be plenty going on.

Celebrate NAIDOC Week and help protect and enhance the City's natural environment at this special community planting day featuring a smoking ceremony.

Our regular 4th Sunday of the month w**ding session will not occur in June, so the next w**ding session at the Wetlands will be on Friday 10 July. This will be an opportunity to clear out some of the w**ds before the big planting day on Saturday 11 July 9-12 am.

Our regular 2nd Friday of the month w**ding session is on tomorrow, Friday 12 June 9-11 am. The steady rain you are seeing today will have moved on and it should be a nice day to have a wander in the bushland. So come along if you'd like to do a little work and support our magnificent wetlands.

Just letting you know there is a Community Day scheduled for the Eric Singleton Wetlands on 21 June, with lots of activities going on from 9-12 am. So if you are free, come along, and bring the family with you. Fun for all ages.

All ages are invited to explore the wetlands, enjoy interactive displays and animal encounters, and connect with environmental groups at this free community discovery morning presented as part of the Wonderful Bayswater Wetlands project.

The fallen Eucalyptus grandis trees have been removed and sadly we have lost six or seven years of regeneration as a result. Hopefully we can plant up the area with local natives again and restart the process, now with less competition from the huge eastern states Eucalypts.
