Plenty Parklands Primary, Trees for Kids winner

Congratulations to Plenty Parklands Primary School. You are the winner of the free tree planting program as provided by Tree Logic and Mt William Nursery. Thanks to everyone for your nominations. It was a very difficult process to find the winner with so many nominations received.
Plenty Parklands Primary School entered the competition stating:

We desperately need a long term plan for trees in our playground as we have 750 students and only a few healthy trees. We have tried so many strategies in the past 11 years to establish an environment which would encourage native birdlife and insects however our trees don’t seem to survive; we need professional advice. The supply of the trees would of course help financially as we have spent money in the past which has been wasted on the wrong trees.

Lee Carr Tree Logic’s Office Manager and Wayne Bloxidge Team Leader Outdoor Services from Tree Logic recently attended the 9th National Street Tree Symposium in September joining others passionate about sustainability practices in their industry.
A big thank you to everyone who supported the Tree Logic Stand at the Symposium.

With increased crowding within urban sprawl, the need for greater emphasis on wise use of water and reduced water use.
Street verges becoming the future water catchment areas by directing water runoff into nature strips rather than into the stormwater systems. Use this water for street tree production/improvements before it becomes wasted/lost to our bays and oceans.
Greater emphasis on species selection. Field demonstrations showed an interesting look at root development of elms and native gums that may improve the tree selection process. Fine matted roots to the canopy edge on elms and large far reaching roots on gum trees.
Much broader and improved look at risk assessment of mature trees and trees in general in urban settings. Greater management of targets and tree crown management rather than a narrow focus on tree removals. Especially when considering cavity and hollow defects.
