On Sunday the 12th of August the Sanctuary held
it’s winter busy bee. The turn out was incredible, with over twenty people
pitching in to help the animals.
Much to our excitement, a number of outstanding projects were
completed on the beautifully clear winter’s day.
Projects included a large weather-proof shelter for the
teenage lamb pen, fitting of a double door to bird aviary, construction of a
brick pad for a new pre-release possum aviary and weeding of the Sanctuary’s
memorial garden. In addition to all of these, the crew worked on getting
through copious amounts of lamb laundry, cleaning sheep pens and starting the
pre-summer tidy of the Sanctuary grounds.
This hard work was rewarded with an incredible pot-luck
lunch, which included sweet potato soup, sushi, Mexican bake, scones with jam
and coconut cream, poppy seed muffins and ‘cheese’ cake slice.
To finish off their day at PVAS, volunteers enjoyed a tour and meet and greet of the Sanctuary residents.
We are always so appreciative of the efforts of our amazing
volunteers. They help enrich the lives of our animal
residents greatly.
