6th Pretoria St. Andrew's Service for Mandela Day
Every year on Mandela Day, the group of 6th Pretoria St. Andrew's completes a community Service project to show our support to the community. This year the Friends of Colbyn sent out a request for help to clean up the wetland in the area and St. Andrew's put up their hand to help.
The project was organized by the Friends of Colbyn group who formed to keep the local community clean and safe for future generations to see. They had sent out requests for volunteers to join and we signed up. The task was removing litter from the wetland as well as invasive plants. For this we brought along tool and equipment to remove the invasive plants and the Friends of Colbyn supplied waste removal bags for the litter that we removed.
We learnt what the different type of invasive plants are in the area and how they are causing damage to the local wetland.
