Linton and Woady Yaloak primary schools share in bushfire safety funding

Linton Primary School ($18,956) and Woady Yaloak Primary School ($22,129) are among about 330 schools sharing in more than $8 million in state funding to clear vegetation around school buildings and obtain bushfire safety advice, the Golden Plains Times reports. Schools on the Bushfire at Risk Register will also receive two visits every three years from an accredited Bushfire Planning and Design expert and a tailored Vegetation Management Plan. Premier Ben Carroll said it was never too early to prepare for bushfire season.
