I know its been a minute since I poated anything on my page - sorry friends! But this is happening in my area, and it is so devastating to watch unfold. Please if you have a minute could you take a look at what is happening at Ormiston College, and show some support for the wildlife whose homes are being selfishly torn down 😓
You can find more footage and information on pretty much any Redlands City page, or follow the Ormiston Koala Group, or Queensland Koala Conservation collective.
This is “Leaf” , the Mummy koala with a baby Joey in her pouch, who is at great risk of losing more of her home in Ormiston College , in the Redlands , Queensland .
She has a satellite tagging system so that she can be tracked and monitored .
Redlands Council have spent $6 million dollars studying many of the koalas 🐨 in the Redlands in recent years , but what is the point of that science based evidence when a private school can ignore it and get its own report contradicting the RCC , and obtain approval from the LNP State Government to destroy so much vital core koala habitat , so fast , for a huge development ?
Btw, the Redlands City Council REJECTED that schools’ development proposal , so the school then bypassed the Redlands Council and managed to get approval from the LNP State Government instead , in case you have just noticed this situation on the news .
Two Redlands LNP MPs ( both State and Federal ) have children that attend that school , plus another attended that school herself . So you would expect that they would know EXACTLY what’s at risk for the koalas and other endangered wildlife that have made their homes within the school grounds or use it when they roam in that area ?
Please email Jarrod Bleijie MP David Crisafulli MP Henry Pike MPAmanda Stoker MP Rebecca Young MP Russell Field MP ( all LNP MPs ) and let them know your concerns about this destructive development at Ormiston College .
Please include the Federal ALP Environment Minister
Murray Watt - Senator for Queensland Thank you 🥰
