A GROUP of Timboon P-12 School students put their green thumbs to work recently.

The Year 7/8 Community Project students were hard at it planting out native species as part of their revegetation and refurbishment of a section of Power Creek in Timboon.

Aided by Geoff Rollinson and Lyndell Driscoe from HDLN, the students planted three varieties of grasses, Lomandra, Knobby Club Rush and Silver Tussock or Poa lab and pulled ivy tendrils from existing trees along the creek bank.

Working with Peter Pope the students planned and marked out footpaths and the location of seats along the pathway with the intent to plant more species before the term ends.
