The project is transforming the garden into an interactive outdoor learning space where students can explore how native foods are grown, harvested, prepared and connected to Country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Led by Eumundi State School Environmental Science teacher Emma Heffernan, students are learning about sustainability, biodiversity, pollination and traditional food knowledge through hands-on experiences in the garden. Year 4 students have also planted native food sources to attract pollinators, with Native Blue Banded bees now contributing to the garden\u2019s growing ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bringing Bush Tukka Knowledge to Life<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With support from GoTransit Media Group and guidance from The Bush Nursery, new educational signage with interactive QR codes will be installed throughout the garden. These signs will help students, teachers and the wider community access information about:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>traditional cultural uses of native plants<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>modern-day applications<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>safe preparation methods<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>environmental and educational insights<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This blend of traditional knowledge and digital technology supports a deeper understanding of native foods while creating a more engaging learning experience for young people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"6268\" src=\"https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/a052c3cc-a05e-4d6e-a790-1b920454300e-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6268\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/a052c3cc-a05e-4d6e-a790-1b920454300e-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/a052c3cc-a05e-4d6e-a790-1b920454300e-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/a052c3cc-a05e-4d6e-a790-1b920454300e-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/a052c3cc-a05e-4d6e-a790-1b920454300e-1537x2048.jpg 1537w, https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/a052c3cc-a05e-4d6e-a790-1b920454300e.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"6269\" src=\"https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_7472-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6269\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_7472-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_7472-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_7472-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_7472-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_7472-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"644\" data-id=\"6270\" src=\"https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_7474-1024x644.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6270\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_7474-1024x644.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_7474-300x189.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_7474-768x483.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_7474-1536x966.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_7474-2048x1288.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reconciliation in Action<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For GoTransit Media Group, the project forms part of a broader commitment to reconciliation. In September 2025, GoTransit\u2019s inaugural Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan was endorsed by Reconciliation Australia, reinforcing the company\u2019s long-term focus on meaningful reconciliation and community impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">GoTransit\u2019s support for the Eumundi State School Bush Tukka Garden includes a $500 contribution from the company\u2019s RAP working group. The donation will help deliver the new QR-code signage and support the garden\u2019s development as a cultural and environmental education space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Paula Kerr, who leads GoTransit Media Group\u2019s Reconciliation Action Plan, said the initiative reflects the company\u2019s belief that reconciliation is driven by genuine action and partnership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBy combining traditional knowledge with modern technology like QR codes, this partnership is creating new opportunities for cultural education, environmental awareness and community engagement,\u201d <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the spirit of this year\u2019s theme, GoTransit is All In.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"782\" src=\"https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_7479-1024x782.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6271\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_7479-1024x782.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_7479-300x229.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_7479-768x587.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_7479-1536x1173.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/gotransit.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/IMG_7479-2048x1564.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FAQ<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is National Reconciliation Week?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">National Reconciliation Week is held from 27 May to 3 June each year. It is a time for Australians to learn about shared histories, cultures and achievements, and to consider how they can contribute to reconciliation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the 2026 National Reconciliation Week theme?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 2026 theme is \u201cAll In\u201d, encouraging Australians to actively participate in reconciliation rather than remain on the sidelines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is Bush Tukka?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bush Tukka refers to native Australian foods traditionally used by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. These foods are increasingly recognised for their cultural, environmental and culinary significance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How is GoTransit supporting The Bush Nursery?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">GoTransit Media Group is supporting The Bush Nursery \u2013 Grown on Country and Eumundi State School through a $500 RAP working group
