I have driven the Lithgow-Bathurst road dozens of times and I would sworn there was nothing at Meadow Flat other than a big bank of speed cameras before the locality sign. But, being diligent in my town search I decided to turn off the road to see what was there and found a cluster of houses, a community hall, war memorial, rural fire service and a school ... just shows you don't know what's anywhere until you go look and see.
I have asked previously in this blog whether they still have Arbor Day when kids go plant trees. Diane assured me they do. I found this outside the school, I guess Arbor Day just has a new name.
Visit Meadow Flat over at 100 Towns.
You could be right. I know they celebrate it on different days in different schools but I don't know why. Many schools have environmental projects on the go where kids learn about growing native plants and vegetables.
ReplyDelete'Arbor' is a tricky old-fashioned word ...
ReplyDeleteIt always amazes me when we take a turn off the main road.
