[NAMES AWAITING VERIFICATION]

Michael GALEA (South-Eastern Metropolitan) (12:54): (1778) My question is for the Minister for Environment. Recently I had the privilege of joining the minister on a visit to Heany Park Primary School in Rowville to celebrate the 12-member green team who won the Student Action Team of the Year award in the 2025 ResourceSmart Schools Awards. These wonderful students run a weekly gardening club and deliver regular sustainability updates, leading to more students adopting eco-friendly habits like using reusable containers. I would like to give my congratulations to the whole school team but especially to Hayley, Sam, Raha, Nardini, Patrick, Almas, Errol, Oliver, Eden, Alta, Serenity and Isla. Minister, how does the ResourceSmart Schools program help students in the South-Eastern Metropolitan Region gain hands-on experience in sustainability?
