Staff and students planting trees at Waurn Ponds Campus

5 July 2024

Calling all green thumbs! Join us for our annual tree-planting day at Waurn Ponds Campus

Our Waurn Ponds Campus is a pretty special place – and you can help us to preserve its natural beauty by taking part in our annual tree-planting day.

Trees are a great asset. They provide areas of shade, purify our air, help us combat climate change, generate a sense of place and provide important habitat for native animals. Over the years, students and staff have helped to revegetate this campus and transform it from cleared agricultural land to the environment we enjoy today.

Come along to connect with nature, meet like-minded staff and students and be part of the Deakin biodiversity mission.

Let’s get planting!

When: Tuesday 23 July 2024
