NORTH Melbourne has pledged to help rebuild the Dunalley Primary School after it was destroyed in Tasmania's devastating bushfires.
The primary school was completely destroyed by the blaze which razed about 70 buildings in the coastal town 57km from Hobart.
The Roos have established close ties with Tasmania and will play two home matches in Hobart this year.
"It's obviously an extremely difficult time for all Tasmanians and we will be doing everything we can to support and assist in the recovery efforts," interim CEO Cam Vale said.
"We want to express our deepest sympathies and pass on our best wishes to everyone involved and affected by the fires."
Vale said the club's first-year players would be in Hobart next week for a training camp and the club was investigating how they could join the recovery effort.
"If we can utilise our players and coaches in some way, then we will definitely do that. All of that is still to be determined.
"Right now it's important that we stay in direct contact with the Premier, AFL Tasmania and the AFL to ascertain what the community needs and where best we can focus our efforts and energy to help the various areas and residents get back on their feet."
AFL Tasmania chief executive Scott Wade said football clubs had escaped the worst of the fires so the AFL community would rally to rebuild the Dunalley school.
On Monday Hawthorn, which also has strong Tassie ties, made a $10,000 donation to the Red Cross Tasmanian Bushfire Appeal.
