This new Rotary International “Area of Focus” is supported by a District 9800 Committee which has issued the idea of “Colour Your World” as an activity Rotarians can engage in during Covid lockdown.
We are also growing gardens to encourage pollinators and photographing bees in a quest to find Native Bees in our metropolitan area.
In the spirit of improving recycling and improvement of our gardens we recommend this resource from the ABC's Gardening Australia.
