SFCC have teamed up with the WOODiWiLD organisation to raise money to create a better waste management system and herb/veggie garden in addition to supporting the environment.

The SFCC forest is located south of Wagga Wagga in western NSW. WOODiWiLD is an organisation that has been created with the sole purpose of re-planting trees on farms across Australia to provide habitat for our threatened wildlife and to help address climate change. 

WOODiWiLD have set a goal to plant 1 million trees over the next decade with the help of Australian schools. 

WOODiWiLD is teaming up with St Francis Catholic College to achieve this goal. SFCC has set a goal to plant 400 of these 1 million trees! 

But how do you get a tree in the St Francis Forest?

All you need to do is click on the SFCC WOODiWiLD webpage and follow the link to add a tree to the SFCC forest. The planting of a tree costs $10 and for every tree planted in the SFCC Forest, our school will receive $2. Our target is 400 trees which will see a return of $800 for SFCC to develop a better waste management system and spruce up the herb/veggie gardens.

You receive a unique map reference for your tree and can follow the growth of the tree in the SFCC forest. The website also has some great resources to educate our students about threatened species, different types of tree species and how trees are an important part of our ecosystem in capturing carbon dioxide.

We encourage all to get involved and purchase a tree in the St Francis Forest to support the environment and raise funds for our school along the way.
