Booth Crescent Reserve - Adopted in 2022

Parks are wonderful places to play and explore, meet new friends and enjoy the health benefits of being outdoors. The more parks are used and enjoyed by the local community the less they are vandalized, littered and used for anti-social purposes.

Lyndale Greens Primary School adopted Booth Crescent Reserve in 2022.

As a school, we have:

• Planted wildlife attracting plants with the assistance of Council staff while learning about our local native wildlife.

• Made a pledge to take care to not litter and if you see litter placing it in the bins provided.

• Made a pledge to let Council know about any vandalism or dumped rubbish in your park.

Parks are wonderful outdoor classrooms that provide a natural learning environment and ‘an alternative place to learn’ where children can be engaged in their environment and care for it. Learning how plants grow and the animals they attract and about environmental issues such as litter are fundamental lessons for young children.

Dandenong Council has supported us with:

• A consultation with a member of our Parks team

• A planting activity at the approved local reserve

• An environmental education session on one of the following topics, bird attracting gardens, lizard lounges, pollinator gardens or bush foods

• 'Adopt a Park’ signage
