The Greater Victoria Green Team organized a youth-focused, hands-on educational activity along Colwood Creek beside Brookes Westshore School. Students of Brookes spent the morning helping restore the riparian habitat by removing invasive plants – mostly Daphne!
Thank-you to everyone for participating: students and teachers from Brookes Westshore, plus Dani and Judy for attending and helping extra!
Thank you very much to Brookes Westshore for partnering with the Green Teams! Your support makes it possible to organize these activities!
