Young Landcarers Banksia Coast gives children, teenagers, families, and schools a clear pathway into local Landcare. The group is built around safe, welcoming activities that help young people learn practical skills while feeling connected to the places around them.
Activities include nursery mornings, beach clean-ups, nature journalling walks, student photo-point monitoring, simple planting days, and small school-led habitat projects. The group also helps young volunteers move into broader Landcare and Coastcare activities as their confidence grows.
What the group does
- School nursery and propagation sessions.
- Family-friendly planting and clean-up days.
- Nature journalling, observation walks, and citizen-science tasters.
- Student-led habitat micro-projects.
- Youth volunteer pathways into DuneCare, Saltmarsh Watch, and creek projects.
Why it matters
Young people often bring families, schools, and new volunteers into Landcare. This group helps the website show how membership, volunteering, events, and stories can all connect through a youth pathway.
