!! News Flash !!



An area of important wildlife habitat is being targeted for practical care by Conservation Volunteers Australia this weekend. From Friday the 14th through to Sunday the 16th of August a team of international volunteers will be assisting in the rehabilitation of important habitat areas along Wollombi Brook, Wollombi.

The team of volunteers are American students from the University of Newcastle who are studying in Australia through Australearn - a leading provider of study abroad programs to Australia, New Zealand and the South Pacific. They will be using best practise bush regeneration techniques to remove weeds and restore habitat for native animals. Volunteers will also get the opportunity to explore this bush paradise, set on 600 acres of spectacular eucalypt forest providing a haven to native animals.

Volunteering with Conservation Volunteers Australia is a great way to enjoy the outdoors, meet new people and learn new skills – while making a real difference to the environment. You choose the level of your commitment, and can enjoy the experience with family and friends.
