Winslow is committed to improving environmental impacts and sustainability in the communities within which our teams work.
On Friday July 29, members of the Sunbury Road Upgrade team visited three local primary schools to celebrate National Tree Day.
The teams traveled to Kismet Park, Holy Trinity and Goonawarra primary schools to donate plants, which the students helped plant.
The day included educational presentations, and demonstrations on how to plant and look after them once in the ground.
The plants were delivered in recyclable containers, reducing land waste, and providing the extra opportunity for each school to return them for a rebate.
This initiative highlights the lasting impression Winslow leaves on communities, teaching the younger generation the importance of the environment and how to look after not only their plants, but the environment around them.
On June 5, Winslow Infrastructure’s Sunbury and Lathams road upgrade teams celebrated World Environment Day.
Our Lathams Road team celebrated with a morning tea accompanied by a demonstration on how to improve our office waste.
The team played a game of “Guess the Bin”, where they needed to identify the correct bin for different pieces of rubbish.
The team were also given a 100 per cent recyclable aluminium water bottle to use, to lower the number of plastic water bottles used on site each day.
Our Sunbury Road team enjoyed a BBQ lunch using reusable plates and cutlery – we are always looking for ways to reduce our waste – and the creation of a new “green walkway” into the site office.
