It warms my heart to see children caring for the environment and other species. The girls worked hard on the recent Clean-up for Turtle Hatchlings event to collect rubbish from our local beach. This event aims to remove as much marine debris from our beaches to give our loggerhead turtle hatchlings the safest journey to the ocean possible! From 2016 to 2021 this clean-up programme has collected 550,000 pieces of litter and over 13 tonnes of rubbish (Sunshine Coast Council, 2024). Search your local council or environmental groups’ websites for more details of events in your area.
