Presentations have been made to community groups including local garden clubs, historical society, Rotary.

As part of Fingal Head Coastcare’s environmental program, Fingal Head Public School has been propogating and revegetating forests and dunes on the Fingal Peninsula since 1998.
Students from the Singapore American School visited FHC recently. They listened to Kate talk about our history, did some planting, gathered Glory Lily flowers and seed capsules, plus more. And on the headland, they were absolutely entranced by dolphins!
