The City of Cockburn offers schools and early years centres the opportunity to receive a free 'planting for Cockatoo's' package with 40 local native plants for their school gardens during May. Schools and childcare/early years centres must register by early April and demonstrate that they operate within Cockburn and have appropriate use for the plants, as stocks and plant choice is limited.
City of Cockburn schools can access the Climate Clever program for free. Work together to reduce your carbon footprint through a guided process to measure, audit and act, which will help your school reach its sustainability goals and save money.
