I told some church friends I’d been picking up trash along the shore. They said, “No need—the waves will wash it away.” But I shared the truth: that trash breaks down, fish mistake it for food, sea plants suffer, and the whole ocean ecosystem pays the price. In the end, they understood. We all went out together to clean and gather seaweed, and we socialized.

Attended one sex education talk on safe sex practices

I attended the cookie decorating in girls week and connected and got to know others in my year group but also others from the older years!

I attended the 4 sex ed talks and learnt a lot

I recently moved to Geoje, South Korea, and was shocked to find so much trash along the shore. It’s heartbreaking to see such a beautiful beach trashed like this. I've decided to clean it up bit by bit every day till it is all clean around here. It makes me so angry that people can be so careless with nature."

My flat did bush care for 2 hours

It was so refreshing to see that there was so little rubbish on the beaches or in the waters of the Whitsundays. I did pick up this Australia shaped piece of plastic though in beautiful Butterfly Bay. I’m in a shirt as I didn’t have a stinger suit. Every little action counts!

Start of our Whitsundays boating trip. I removed numerous Glycine vines from the charter company garden. An employee was very happy with what I did. He mentioned that invasive vines are a huge problem on the islands 😢

Sunday April 22 I finished off removing the Glycine vine along the fence line of the Biobasin. Removed as much as I could by the roots, cut what remained.

I attended 3 she week activities, to connect with each other.

This morning, our flat had bushcare with Jack. We helped remove weeds and clean up the bush.

This morning our flat had Bushcare with Jack. It was interesting to learn about the differrent weeds surrounding the bush in the areas by the river.
