New Fodder Farm in Bonner!
Iona College has partnered with the Queensland Koala Society to establish a new fodder farm in Bonner! Over 500 trees will be planted at Iona College for the sustainable harvest of eucalyptus leaves to help feed koalas during their rehabilitation. This partnership was made possible through the Australian Government’s Planting Trees for the Platinum Jubilee grant program. Whilst it is devastating that Her Majesty the Queen has passed away since the grant was awarded to Iona College, this new fodder farm is the perfect way to pay tribute to her passion for the protection of wildlife. Congratulations to Fr Michael and College Principal, Mr Goodwin, as well as Angela and Leann from the QLD Koala society for this incredible vision into a sustainable future for koalas.
Thank you, Your Majesty
In many ways, the world is still in shock over the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. A dutiful and strong leader, The Queen devoted her life to service, to the Commonwealth, and to the Australian people. During her reign, Her Majesty visited Australia 16 times and saw more of this incredible country than most Australians. Her wisdom, grace, knowledge, and compassion were an inspiration to us all. Over 4 billion worldwide watched Her Majesty’s funeral, a testament to her legacy and dedication to public service. Rest In Peace, Your Majesty. Thank you for everything.
