CQUni on board for Melbourne's Clean Up Australia Day 

Staff and students at CQUniversity Melbourne joined in the annual Clean-Up Australia Day event at the Royal Botanical Gardens to help make the city beautiful.

The enthusiastic group of 13 collected bags of rubbish and helped contribute to the clean-up efforts.

Following the clean-up, participants joined the crowd down by the banks of the Yarra River to enjoy the sunshine and a barbecue lunch together.

Melbourne Campus Director Lara Carton thanked all those who participated and assisted in preparations beforehand and those who turned up on the day to make it a great success.

"The Melbourne Campus' participation in Clean-Up Australia Day marks the beginning of an exciting program of student and community engagement activities planned for 2013," Ms Carton said.
