Hi there, Can anybody tell me who planted all the
young sandalwood trees around Sandalwood
Rock? I remember reading somewhere that some school group was responsible and would appreciate
feedback on their current condition, but can't remember who it was. We visited there a week ago and noted details of the plants condition which I would like to pass on. Cheers, Jackaroo.

I saw the same article - was it in the latest Western 4WD magazine ??

Yep, Alan's right. It was in the recent 48th edition of Western 4WDriver. 225
sandalwood trees were planted back in July by a group of students from the Willeton Senior High School Academic Talent Program (bit of a mouthful!). You can email updates to their teacher Darren Hamley at:
darren.hamley@willettonshs.wa.edu.au
Project info and updates is/will be posted to their web site at:

So, what condition did you find the trees in Jackaroo?

Mnay thanks Alan and Melissa, Yeah, the trees are doing great, we counted 218 so must have missed a few. 208 looked extremely healthy and about 10cm. tall, 10 were stunted with some leaves going brown and we found 3 guards with no plants in them. A very pleasant and interesting trip. Cheers, Jackaroo.
