Our thanks to the staff, students and parents at the Aldgate Primary School and Mylor Primary School - at either end of the Valley of the Bandicoots - who have supported the project in many ways, not least by putting bandicoots and bushland conservation on the curriculum for local kids.

Residents of the Aldgate Valley:
The residents whose properties adjoin the Valley of the Bandicoots, and also the Aldgate Valley Landcare Group members and other volunteers, are the heart and soul of our project. Their volunteer work on their own properties, and their willingness to help out with work on public land, has made it all possible.
