While autumn showers descended, 16 eager year-ten students gazed across the ocean from Bingi Bingi Point, ready for three days of learning and leadership.

The Biinda Experience is Eurobodalla’s sustainability-themed youth camp. Biinda means to rise up or stand up in dhurga and the experience is about readying the shire’s next generation of environmental advocates and protectors.

Students got their hands dirty planting penguin-friendly native plants on Snapper Island, connected with land and water while kayaking down the Bhundoo (Clyde River), before setting up a farm-to-table feast at Moruya’s SAGE Garden.

The Biinda Experience will be back, with the two-day program slated for 20-21 May. Students or teachers wanting to join in can contact Council’s natural resources team.
