Golden Guitar muso Troy Cassar-Daley was top of the pops and king of the kids at Hillvue Public School.

The singer-songwriter, who learnt his guitar licks here, went back to school to sing the message about recycling.

The man with 25 Golden Guitars – the country music industry’s gong of gongs – is back again as the festival face for the local environment.

It’s the 12th year Troy has played ambassador for the council’s waste-reduction program.
