Past Pleasant & Future

Back

Stawell Secondary College students are developing and constructing a 10km bicycle/walking interpretive trail along the Historic Pleasant Creek Heatherlie Quarry rail line path, between Stawell and Lake Lonsdale.

The project involves planning, obtaining permits, bridge and trail construction, interpretive signs, weed control, and re-vegetation.

The Powercor Australia School and Community Fund is an initiative of the Education Foundation, a donor funded philanthropic organisation that promotes and supports innovation and excellence in government schools.

Powercor has provided $18,000 from 2002 – 2005 for our project. The project is managed and run by Year 9 Ecology students.
