Take the Green Route is almost here! Today, we'd like to introduce our fabulous new project logo, designed by local organisation Mint Sauce Media. How many habitats and species can you identify? You may be able to enjoy all of them on our activities this summer! 🙂
A passenger bike and footprints move along a route, past a river, pond, trees and flower-filled meadows. A white swan swims in the river, an otter sitting nearby. Elsewhere, a blue damselfly and frog hang out in the pond, a robin sings from the top of a tree with heart-shaped leaves, a blue butterfly is a-flutter, and a green beetle watches it all from yellow tansy flowers. Above, a large orange sun hangs in a blue and white sky.

Whilst at @melbourne_cps last week time was also spent making 'pledge animals’ - each containing a scroll on which is written a simple action people can do to help wildlife, such as growing wildflowers, leaving an area of lawn uncut or making a bug hotel 🌿🦋🐛🐝🐞
