School Grounds

On the 15th of November 2019, Quarry Hill Primary School officially opened the bushland following a period of redevelopment. The bushland now offers both a space for recreation as well as reflection with specific areas paying tribute to the original owners of the land (The Dja Dja Wurrung People). It was opened in a beautiful ceremony headed by representatives of the Dja Dja Wurrung people.
