 Media coverage - Frankston Weekly, 8 March 2011 Twenty young people from the Frankston and Cranbourne areas last week started a 26-week environmental training program with the National Green Jobs Corps. The program offered in partnership with Parks Victoria, Frankston Council and Mission Australia offers people aged 17 to 24 a combination of work experience, skill development and accredited training to give them the skills for future employment in green and climate change industries. The 10-person Frankston team will be involved in improving the flora and pathways to natural resources along Seaford foreshore, Kananook Creek Reserve, Sweetwater Creek at Frankston South and Outlook Reserve in Frankston. Activities will include planting, propagating, landscaping, mapping and surveying weed infestation and constructing pathways, signs, shelters, seating and barbecue areas. The Cranbourne team will work on the expansion and development of the Royal Botanic Gardens at Cranbourne. This is the first time Frankston Council has been involved in the program.
