Teven Memorial Park - Biodiversity Restoration Project

This project will eradicate woody weeds (predominantly Camphor Laurel, Lantana, Privet, Coral tree and Madeira vine), in the south-eastern section of the Teven Memorial Park adjacent to Maguire's Creek. Group members will participate in monthly bush regeneration working bees and professional regenerators and other contractors will be engaged for some work. An existing fence will be relocated and existing native plants will be preserved. Extensive planting of local endemic native species will replace eradicated weeds and prevent erosion. The community will be engaged and educated through a series of volunteer working bees, school visits and field days, as well as project signage, newspaper stories, pamphlet drops and website updates.

本项目将清除特文纪念公园（Teven Memorial Park）东南片区毗邻马奎尔溪（Maguire's Creek）区域内的木本杂草，主要涵盖香樟（Camphor Laurel）、马缨丹（Lantana）、女贞（Privet）、刺桐（Coral tree）以及马德拉藤（Madeira vine）。项目参与人员将参与每月一次的灌丛修复志愿工作营，同时将聘请专业修复团队及其他承包商承接部分作业。现有围栏将予以搬迁，原生植物将得到妥善保留。将大规模种植本地特有乡土物种，以替代被清除的杂草并防止土壤侵蚀。项目将通过多类渠道开展社区动员与科普教育工作，包括举办志愿者工作营、校园探访与实地研习活动，以及设置项目标识、发布新闻报道、派发宣传单页及更新项目网站等。
