National Tree Day Sunday 30th
National Tree Day is Australia's biggest community tree-planting event.
Organised nationally each year by Planet Ark in association with Toyota and the AMP Foundation.

DATES FOR 2006
SCHOOLS TREE DAY- Friday 28th July
NATIONAL TREE DAY - Sunday 30th July


More than 350,000 volunteers celebrated National Tree Day's tenth birthday last year by giving the environment the best gift of all - the planting of one and a half million native trees and shrubs at 4,000 sites around Australia.
2,500 schools were involved in last year's event. Tree Day shows children how easy it is to help the environment, and that's what National Tree Day is all about.
Tree Day 2005 helped to repair, revegetate and restore Australia's landscape, with people from all walks of life coming together to green up Australia.
Last year, for the first time, Australians made a huge difference in their own backyards by purchasing thousands of Tree Day backyard planting packs from Coles. The planting of these local native trees will help to provide food and shelter for Australia's wildlife.
Thanks to last year's effort, the total number of trees planted since 1996 is over 9 million.Let's make this year even better as we plant our 10 millionth tree!

I hope everyone’s exams went well and no lecturers are on your hit list for giving a hard exam. However now that exams are over I say we get together and begin organising next semester, so that we start the semester with a big bang.

Next Meeting
To get the ball rolling we can meet at my house next Tuesday the 4th July to organise our plan of attack and we can order pizzas for dinner and watch a few movies if we feel like it and go to Mullaloo for a nice cold Corona.

Dinner
After the meeting we can plan somewhere to go for dinner somewhere, Subiaco way. There is a bloody tasty restaurant called Wagga Wammas and we can all gather there for a bloody brilliant dinner and a few laughs.

Cadbury Chocolates
Our Cadbury Chocolates are due, so if I haven’t already called you to meet up for the chocolates could you please call me so that I can collect the money and pay off Cadbury

Youth Focus
Our final total for Youth Focus will be reached soon, so that total will be handed over to Youth Focus soon.

Thankyou Letters
