10am - 3pm

Tondoon Botanic Gardens
Creative Recycling Centre is excited about being back at Tondoon for Ecofest 2021! This year's World Environment Day theme is Ecosystem Restoration. We will have a range of activities that we will be running throughout the day so come and join us to have fun and learn about our environment!  

To find out more about Ecosystem Restoration, what it means and how you can help visit www.decadeonrestoration.org/what-ecosystem-restoration​

Ecosystem Game
In line with this year's theme of Ecosystem Restoration, the team at CRC created a fun, interactive game to learn about our ecosystems, the threats and brainstorm ways to restore them.  This game was part of the Dear Earth workshop that was delivered to six primary schools across the Gladstone Region and will be at Ecofest for all ages to play!

Activity Time: 11:30am and 1:30pm   
Location: FBA Inflatable marquee.
Please nominate at CRC marquee prior to game session.

Dear Earth Globes
As part of our Dear Earth and Ecosystem Restoration workshops, upper primary students were asked to write letters to Earth.  These letters have become the final artwork on paper mache globes that will be on display at Ecofest.  The paper mache globes have been made by local artist Sue Daw with recycled phone book paper.  

CRC is inviting visitors to Ecofest to contribute and write their own letter to Earth.  The letters will be added to a globe on the day to create a community art sculpture. 
​
Activity Time: 10am - 2:30pm
Location: CRC Stall
