Do you want to be a Holiday Hollow Hunter?

A Hollows as Homes September school holiday activity is being planned, looking for and measuring tree hollows. There’s no tree climbing, but lots of hands-on science, looking for, measuring and recording tree hollows.

Hollows as Homes is a new national program run by the Australian Museum and Royal Botanic Gardens to see how many hollows are about and what animals are using them across Australia.

The CPPA is keen to participate by taking measurements of the hollow-bearing trees and periodically conducting monitoring and reporting the wildlife using this important habitat.

If you think you or your science-minded-student-child/adolescent would be interested please contact Suzanne Pritchard (CPPA Committee) to register your interest. Numbers will be limited to 7/day and there will be one outing each week of the holidays.
