Tarneit Senior College year 12 students have been doing their bit to help out in the community.
Almost 160 students have spent five weeks working with seven organisations, many based in Wyndham.
Among their community efforts, the Tarneit students have been knitting blanket squares for Knit One Give One, a not-for-profit organisation that donates knitted and crocheted items to premature babies, the elderly, homeless, refugees and residents of remote indigenous communities.
The students have also been helping to clean up Skeleton Creek and surrounding areas with Clean Up Australia; preparing meals for the Manor Lakes Food Bank; and working with children at Tarneit North Kindergarten to create an indigenous art mural to be displayed in an outdoor space at the pre-school.
The Tarneit college students have also been visiting residents at the Mercy Place Wyndham nursing home to chat, perform music and play games.
