Along the way, the girls also learnt to stay focused, to stand up for their ideas, to negotiate content and to express themselves via a digital medium.” Wandana Community Centre Manager Rille Walshe said, “This programme was about empowering young women, giving them a voice through digital literacy and facilitating them working on something they felt passionate about. A lot of teamwork was involved and I think this really made a difference to them. This programme would not have been able to occur without the council grant, I think it’s an innovative project that’s really significant and has given us ideas for future directions.”

47 Parks Tree Planting PARKS The Council undertakes a year-round program to ‘green’ our region, ensuring our trees and vegetation are well- suited to their environment.

In 2015-2016 the Parks Ward was the target of extensive revegetation works, with approximately 900 trees planted across the ward.
