A Moment With Miah

In the Burdekin, nurturing the next generation is more than a goal—it’s a shared commitment. Local organisations like the Ayr Surf Life Saving Club (SLSC) play a vital role in instilling values of responsibility, resilience, and teamwork in young members.
Through lifesaving training and beach patrols, the club equips youth with skills that could one day save lives, fostering confidence and a sense of purpose.
Events such as the King and Queen of the Hill race further showcase the Burdekin’s dedication to uplifting young achievers. These activities give local youth a platform to test their limits, set goals, and develop lifelong skills.
Recently, Ayr State High School held its annual Awards Night, celebrating the achievements of students who have excelled academically, athletically, and in community service. The evening recognised the hard work, dedication, and contributions of students across all year levels, highlighting the school’s commitment to fostering well-rounded young leaders who will make a positive impact in the community.
By empowering our youth, the Burdekin community builds strong roots that promise a brighter future. With each challenge overcome and skill learned, young people are prepared not only to serve today but also to lead tomorrow, ensuring the Burdekin’s legacy remains in capable, compassionate hands.
