It was an incredibly joyous feeling hearing the whole school singing along and clapping in the chorus.
Thank you Moreton Downs State School for this amazing opportunity. This has been a very special project we have been working on in the last six months. We had the opportunity to record student's voices for the recording at the school. We could not have done it without the amazing work of Mrs Tuialii and the fantastic effort and enthusiasm shown by the wonderful group of students.

Thank you to everyone who came along to our concert, you were a beautiful audience.

It was a pretty magical day all round. We got to meet Costa first thing as we were loading in and shortly after watched a very special storytime with Costa and Mikey Webb in the delightful Caboolture Library. We listened to an incredible and inspiring talk by @costasworld and then it was soon time for us to perform.

What a joy it was to connect with so many wonderful members of our local community!
It was an awesome event, we're sure it'll be the first of many Moreton Bay Eco Fests. Thanks for having us Moreton Bay Regional Council and thanks for the gift of basil seeds!
