School teacher Matthew Baxter welcomed the generous donation to the Victorian Pathways Certificate students at Wangaratta District Specialist School.
“The students, who are studying agriculture and horticulture, have been using the mulch for their landscaping and gardening projects in the local community,” Mr Baxter said.
“Donations like this support our students in developing the skills they need to transition out of school into the workforce.”
