Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee Ceremony

Capel Sound Foreshores was successful in obtaining the ‘She-Oak Replenishment Program’ grant. This project was jointly funded through Capel Sound Foreshores Committee of Management Inc and Australian Government’s Planting Trees for the Queen’s Jubilee Program.

This grant allowed the Friends of Capel Sound Foreshores Group and staff to plant Coastal Banksia’s (Banksia integrifolia) and Drooping she-oak (Allocasuarina verticillata) prevalent to the Banksia Woodlands area. With our current established Coastal Banksia’s ageing, these plants will provide further habitat, food and improvement of the existing ecosystem.

A day celebrated with the community, volunteers, campers, comittee members and special thanks to Zoe McKenzie and Jill Sparkes for their support. It was a day to mark the efforts and contribution to ensuring the health of the Banksia Woodlands continues to grow.
