Koala Monitoring Workshops in December
Richmond Landcare Inc is excited to announce two upcoming koala monitoring workshops. These free, community-driven events aim to equip local residents with the skills and knowledge to help protect and monitor our precious koala populations.
Choose from Two Workshop Dates:
- Friday, 6th December at Repentance Creek Hall
- Saturday, 7th December at The Channon Hall
Both workshops will run from 9:30am to 3:00pm, with the morning dedicated to learning about koala conservation from experts Amanda Lane (Biolink) and Maria Matthes (Healing History). Topics will include:
- Why koala monitoring is crucial for their survival.
- How to identify koala food trees and key habitat features.
- Techniques for surveying koalas and assessing their health.
- How to record and report data for koala conservation efforts.
In the afternoon, participants will put their new skills into practice during a hands-on field session, learning how to survey for koalas in the local environment.
Free Event – Registrations Essential
Both workshops are free and fully catered. Participants will also receive a comprehensive booklet and resources to support their role as community koala monitors. Spaces are limited, so registration is essential to secure your place.
