Operation Yallah Woodland _ Protection of the endangered woodland at Yallah TAFE

The majority of the remnant bushland at the TAFE Illawarra Yallah Campus is classified as Illawarra Lowlands Grassy Woodland, which is an endangered ecological community in NSW. TAFE Illawarra is submitting an application for a Green Army to carry out woodland protection and restoration works at Yallah Campus in accordance with a Conservation Areas Management Plan. The Green Army Team would conduct the on-ground works such as fencing, weeding and bush regeneration, as well as gain other skills and experience in conservation and land management. Overall this project aims to protect the existing Yallah woodland from threatening processes and to educate the participants and wider community about its biological conservation value.
