Help baby oysters find a home 🦪The Port River is a vital marine nursery and ecological treasure. Native oysters play a key role in filtering water, boosting biodiversity and rebuilding reef habitat.
Come along on Wednesday, 8 October to the Port Environment Centre for an evening of nature learning while building homes for the oysters.
Here’s what’s happening:
4:30 – 5:30pm | Eco-Discussion: This month’s topics -
Article 1: Australia’s government is pledging better protection for our vulnerable seas – but will it work?

5:30 – 7:30pm | Feel the Flow of the Port River
Learn from expert Brad Martin how OzFish is helping restore the Port River ecosystem. Then roll up your sleeves and help create oyster windchimes that will go into the river to give baby oysters spat some new homes.
