Blue Mountains Organises a Flea Market to Support the “Everyday Hero: Water Pollution in China” Project
Blue Mountains recently organised a charity “Christmas Flea Market” to raise funds for the “Everyday Hero: Water Pollution in China” project. The school collected items from students and staff and sold them into two sessions, collecting over 930 RMB in total.
Students were very motivated with the idea of supporting this great cause under the initiative of the Australian Rivers Institute (Griffith University). The Australian Rivers Institute is supporting the work of government departments and research organisations in China, through its expertise in environmental water management, river restoration and aquatic ecosystem health assessment. The Institute pioneers environmental research for rivers, coasts and catchments and has established formal collaborations with the Chinese Academcy of Science, leading universities and research institutes within the Ministry of Environment and Ministry of Water in China.
