Secondary school students in the Latrobe Valley will swap the classroom for the farm and get their hands dirty while learning important skills in the areas of science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) after AGL Loy Yang announced a $25,000 partnership with Bass Coast Landcare Network this week. 
Under the partnership Bass Coast Landcare Network will deliver the 'Managing Sustainable Farms Using STEM' pilot program designed to introduce students in years seven to ten to sustainable land management and the ways that science, technology, engineering and maths are used to run a profitable farming enterprise.
On Tuesday 31st of October, year 7 students from St Paul’s Anglican Grammar School and year 8 students from Kurnai College Churchill travelled to Peter Devonshire’s  Budgeree farm to take part in the launch of the program and learn more about sustainable farming. Check out this video below for media coverage of the day. 

​35 Individuals from five Landcare groups gathered at Jon and Marg Hauser’s farm for a fantastic informative field day last weekend. Robbie Gray from Bass Coast Landcare displayed the last five years of Fauna Monitoring results utilizing infra- red camera traps mainly in and around the Holden proving ground. Robbie also showed the group how to install the cameras to get the best possible results. We had several Landcare members enquire about lending traps to gather data for our BCLN wide Monitoring program. This is a fantastic result and means we can now start to get a broader picture of fauna species present on private land across Bass Coast. Click read more to see the full story.
