Annual School Tree Audits – Victoria
In Victoria, schools have a legal obligation to manage their trees as part of their occupational health and safety responsibilities. The Victorian School Building Authority recommends that all schools engage a qualified arborist to conduct an annual tree integrity audit to ensure the safety of students, staff, and visitors.
Why Annual Tree Audits Matter
Regular tree inspections help identify potential hazards such as weak branches, structural defects, or disease that could pose risks on school grounds. Early detection through a professional audit allows schools to manage these risks proactively, fulfilling their duty of care and maintaining a safe environment.
