Killalea State Park has been involved in some great projects over the past couple of months.
The park has recently relocated a Scarred Tree of great importance to the local Aboriginal community from a quarry site at Dunmore, to the entrance of Killalea State Park. This project was a joint effort by Killalea State Park, Boral Quarry, The Illawarra Aboriginal Lands Council and NPWS. More work is still to be done to ensure protection of the tree but it has been a great effort so far to ensure this significant part of local history is preserved for future generations. Well done to all.
Killalea State Park have also been working with Illawarra Youth Landcare to maintain the land around the park and connect young people with the environment. This short documentary captures the stories of young volunteers who give thier time to contribute to environmental restoration in the Illawarra. Great job guys!
