Barunga School Gets a New Fence to Keep Out Cheeky Dogs

Barunga School in the NT has been having some trouble with the “cheeky dogs”.

The local dogs were knocking over the school’s rubbish bins and making quite a mess, but our teams from Barunga and Wugularr jumped right in to help out.

Thanks to a fencing course our team members recently completed, they put their new skills to good use and built a fenced area for the bins!

This clever solution has kept the dogs away, while still making it easy for school and council staff to access the bins.

A massive shoutout to the team for their amazing work and dedication to their community!
