"I love a sun burnt country, A land of sweeping plains, Of ragged mountain ranges"... and 140 species of snakes. One of our brave project teams, surrounded by the beautiful bush land of Western Sydney, held an interactive toolbox on being snake-safe, hosted by Andrew Melrose from Live Reptile Displays. Special native guests included the Red Bellied Black snake, the Death Adder, the Tiger Snake, the Eastern Brown and the Diamond Python. You never know what you might find napping in a pipe, slumbering under a roll of geo fabric, or hiding out in a gumboot. Be snake-safe this season. #wrdt #snakesafe (words taken from the poem ‘My Country’ by Dorothea MacKellar)
Well done team for taking proactive steps to ensure everyone's safety, especially with the warm days ahead when snakes are more active. Great initiative ! Stay safe out there and keep up the great work!
Different toolbox compared to the UK I.e. watch out so the rain, sleet and snow!!! Well done team
Hats off to Owen Bloom for driving this important and super relevant safety initiative
