DAY 3 - Groundz Care

Today was the hottest day of the program. The team have become a well drilled band of gardeners.  With regular rotations due to the heat the Groundz Care team managed three properties in Lalor Park blitzing them. It was like a scene from the Chelsea Garden show!!  Groundz Care team have been an absolute blessing!

DAY 2 - Groundz Care

The temperature was rising but the Groundz Care team were up for the challenge. Two properties to “make over” again, this time both were in Lalor Park. At the first property the team initially could not even get to the back. After sometime the front and back looked sharp and there was even an open pathway to the backyard! The second property needed a tidy and attention to the lawn.  The team did not disappoint.

DAY 1 - Groundz Care

A team of 14 students headed out of the College for the day. They visited two properties in the Seven Hills area.  Both properties needed much attention and the team didn’t waste any time in transforming both properties so they looked like they were ready for an open home.

DAY 3 - Garden Gnomes


They’re almost finished. The garden looks amazing, trees stand tall and the rich soil emphasises the beauty of the garden. Plants are being planted carefully on the hill whilst several Garden Gnomes gently water them. This has been an awesome team of people who have worked tirelessly at gardening.


DAY 3 - Colours for Carramar


They’re back at it. Colours for Carramar are endlessly packing and sorting out stationery for the children in Carramar. But what are they going to do without any paper to draw on? Well, Sketchin’ is also helping by providing colouring books for people in Carramar. Colours for Carramar have shown that they are a team of people who don’t mind sorting out and ordering stationery in a relaxed environment.


DAY 3 - Incandescence


It’s decorating time! The group is making their fragranced candles pretty by adding colored paper and accessories. They have created so many candles, but they’re not finished just yet! The students in this service activity have had such a good time making the candles. You will know if they work in incandescence because they smell like cinnamon! Service week has been a great experience for Incandescence.  Today is finishing up day.  Everyone’s wrapping up and they’re almost done.
